Intel plans processor front
A rather interesting article has been posted on Tom's Hardware Guide, where we may be confronted with Intel's plans.
At a presentation in Hilsboro, Oregon, Intel presented the present and future of the company’s life to nearly eighty journalists and analysts.
The present was mostly the new factory, which was already casting seeds with a strip width of 65 nanometers.
The interesting thing about the future is that the 2007-nanometer manufacturing technology will arrive by the second half of 45, and by 2008 we can also expect eight-core processors. These instances will use 12 MB of LXNUMX cache. Eight-core processors a Yorkfield and the Harpertown they will be. The former will target the desktop segment, the latter the enterprise segment, and both will come with 12 MB of second-level cache.
Processors at 45 nanometers:
| Category | Code name | Seeds | Cache | Introduction |
| Table | wolfdale | Two seeds in a case | 3 MB shared | 2008 |
| Table | Ridgefield | Two seeds in a case | 6 MB shared | 2008 |
| Table | Yorkfield | Eight seeds in several cases | 12 MB shared | 2008+ |
| Table | Bloomfield | Four seeds in a case | - | 2008+ |
| Desktop / Mobile | Perryville | A seed | 2 MB | 2008 |
| Mobile | Penryn | Two seeds in a case | 3 MB, 6 MB shared | 2008 |
