Intel Core 2 Duo E7000 Set For A Q2 Launch

AMD versus Intel, bye bye Intel

You may recall a few months back when AMD took out full-page newspaper ads to challenge Intel to a dual-core server duel. Intel declined to take up AMD on its offer, but the challenge got us thinking: what would the results of a dual-core desktop CPU fight look like? Many people equate Windows PCs with Intel Pentium processors (and soon will likely be doing the same with Macs), but we've seen dual-core CPU AMD systems power ahead of dual-core Intel-based PCs on more than one occasion.

Intel going for a new logo(?)

The new Intel processor, codename 'Yonah', announced for the 3rd of January 2006, will according to X86-secret simply be called 'Core Solo' or 'Core Duo'. Depending on the amount of cores (no way! where did they come up with that). It's more than 10 years ago since Intel created ax X86-architecture CPU that wasn't called 'Pentium'. Machines with Centrino CPU's will also get a new sticker-logo from now on, saying only 'Centrino', without the real CPU name. The amount of cores will still be mentioned on the sticker.

Intel Supports Overclocking with New Mainboard

In a bid to further tap into the segment of performance enthusiasts, Intel Corp. has quietly released its Desktop Board D975XBX2 mainboard that not only allows installing three graphics cards (two in ATI CrossFire mode for improved graphics performance and the third one, possibly, for physics), but also can overclock microprocessor and set memory to work at 800MHz clock-speed, something, which was not officially supported by Intel 975X core-logic originally.

Intel to take 'Averill' to market as Centrino-like platform

Intel will next year launch its third branded PC platform, after Centrino and Viiv, this time pitched at corporate desktops.

As yet there's no word on the platform's go-to-market brandname, but it will almost certainly be based on Intel's 'Averill' platform. Averill was announced at the chip giant's Developer Forum in March this year for availability in 2006.

Averill is based on Intel's upcoming 'Broadwater' chipset, which will ship primarily as the 965 family, but also as the 946 and 963 product lines, it is believed. The platform also takes in Intel's next-generation Gigabit Ethernet controller, 'Nineveh', and its 65nm dual- and single-core Pentium D and Pentium 4 6xx processors.

Intel is apparently set to begin transition the Core 2 Duo E4000 series with the new E700 series, which is based on the 45 nm Wolfdale core. According to reports, the company will launch the E7200 model with a clock speed of 2.53 GHz in Q2 of this year. The first chip will integrate a 1066 MHZ FSB, up from 800 MHz in the E4000 series, and a 3 MB shared L2 cache, up from 2 MB. The thermal design power remains at 65 watts, HKEPC.com reports. Overall, 45 nm processors will be rare sight on the market, as Intel expects only 5% of its total output to be 45 nm. The share is expected to climb to 20% in Q2 and to 50% in Q3. Meanwhile, first information about the E8000 series, the successor of the current Core 2 Duo E6000 models, begins to show up. Several media outlets are reporting that the 45 nm dual cores will be shipping in late January, while the Q9000 quad-cores are expected to follow with a few weeks of delay.

Intel to unveil new brand to employees today

Intel is scheduled to reveal the details of its massive rebranding campaign today. But for now, only Intel employees will be informed about the ideas and reasons why the old and familiar Intel logo just was not up to the task anymore.

D ropping the dropped 'e' takes the center stage of the rebranding and will be the most visible sign for people outside Intel that the company wants to acquire a new image. The Intel brand, currently valued at about $35 billion, is evolving, Intel told employees that the new brand "will tell the world in a new way what Intel is all about, and what the company does."

Originally, the name Intel was derived from the firm's original name "Integrated Electronics". Later on, the two words were combined and the "e" was dropped to highlight the separation of the two words. At the time, the name "Intel" was held by a hotel company and was purchased by Intel for $15,000...

Intel Reportedly to Simplify Brand-Names

In the recent years the product portfolio of Intel Corp. extended tremendously as a result of platformization as well as transition to multi-core technologies, making it uneasy for customers to determine the product they need. But that is going to change, once the company performs global platform simplification process in the beginning of 2008.

It was already reported that the world's largest chipmaker will get rid of Intel Viiv and Intel vPro brand-names going forward, but apparently the changes will be much more substantial, according to reports from Japanese and Taiwanese web-sites. For instance, Intel Core 2 processors will lose their "Solo", "Duo" or "Quad" differentiators, but will be marketed under Intel Core 2 brand-names. Intel Pentium D and Intel Pentium Dual-Core chips, despite of the fact that they are based on different micro-architectures, will be sold under Intel Pentium label. Nevertheless, Intel Celeron, Intel Core Extreme and Intel Xeon trademarks will be retained.

Is Intel delaying USB 3.0?

According to a report from EETimes.com, Intel has pushed plans to support USB 3.0 in its chipsets back until 2011. Without Intel's support for the standard, motherboard and gadget makers will be forced to hold off due to the expense of using third party controllers. Also known as SuperSpeed USB and developed by the USB 3.0 Promoter Group - Hewlett Packard, Intel, Microsoft, NEC, NXP Semiconductors and Texas Instruments - USB 3.0 promises speeds of up to 4.8Gbit/s. At the Intel Developers Forum 2009 last month, it was unofficially revealed that Intel planned to start offering support for USB 3.0 in early 2010, but then "shifted its plans out a year," according to the EETimes.com.
