CPU and GPU use shared cache

The graphics unit itself should be substantially revised sony pcga-bp2r battery. Intel promises more performance per clock Sandy Bridge than the previous Nehalem. Turbo Boost also is being improved.

Intel’s next architecture Sandy Bridge will have a shared cache for a CPU and GPU. This is to increase graphics performance. This has David Perlmutter, executive vice president and deputy general manager of Intel Architecture Group, announced at the Intel Developer Forum in Beijing.

Already known is that Intel wants to revise the graphics unit itself. The producer talks about the sixth generation. For Sandy Bridge CPU and graphics are on one die can be accommodated. In the current dual cores on Nehalem-based, Clarkdale and Arrandale lenovo 3000 n500 battery, these units are located separately in the processor housing. The graphics are still manufactured in the 45-nanometer process and has been updated to the X4500MHD only slightly.

All Sandy Bridge CPUs will be manufactured in 32-nanometer process. Intel wants to increase the performance per clock. The innovations also include the SSE extension AVX (Advanced Vector Extensions). Also, the automatic overclocking Turbo Boost will be improved. Probably due to improved power saving mechanisms can Maximaltakt be higher.

Intel was the first time, a Sandy-Bridge-computers with sony np-fc11 batteryWindows 7 demonstration last September at the Intel Developer Forum in San Francisco. The production of CPUs with the new architecture should begin in the fourth quarter. The launch is expected in the first quarter of 2011.

Intel introduces new Atom platform Pine Trail B

Also limited to Intel, the digital resolution of the graphics unit to a maximum of 1368 x 768 pixels (Analogue VGA: Netbook 1400 times 1050, Nettop 2048 times 1536), so that external full-HD monitor or desktop All-in-one devices, and more LCD panel with the new Atom platform can no longer controlling reasonable. Also, it is no longer current knowledge possible to install an external DVI or HDMI output with an additional transceiver chip. The required port (SDVO port) has left out Intel.

New Atom platform: less space, lower power

Netbooks with Intel’s upcoming Atom-generation "Pine Trail to" imagine the producers are already at the Consumer Electronics Show (CES), from 7 to 10 January in Las Vegas takes place.

HP has closed in preparation for the new models to the sale of pre-configured Mini 5101 netbook line of products through its website. A Dell spokesman said: "You can assume that Dell will offer products based on Intel’s new Atom platform Pine Trail." Other providers, such as Acer, Asus, MSI and Toshiba are expected to update its inventory.

The fact that the new Atom platform over the previous Netbook solution, except a little less power is advantageous, could open up market opportunities for AMD and NVIDIA. A Netbook platform, which offers a contemporary graphics for acceleration of HD content and limitations when dealing with the display resolution should be found in the rapidly growing Netbookmarkt enough buyers.

Intel introduces new Atom platform Pine Trail A

The update for netbooks and low-cost desktop PC includes three nuclear processors. They have an integrated graphics core and memory controller. The chipset NM10 completes the system architecture.

Intel has announced three new Atom processors, the first time have an integrated graphics unit. The GMA3100, known by older notebook solutions that solves the years and have come in from for modern usage scenarios such as playing HD-videos not suitable GMA950 graphics core. In addition, these new processors have an integrated memory controller, so that the North Bridge is eliminated the existing architecture. Is completed as the "Pine Trail" known solution with the chipset NM10, which among other things allows the communication with the USB and SATA devices.

The higher integration density (two chips instead of three) claims the solution 60 percent less area than the previous netbook platform. In addition, the power consumption about 20 percent is lower, so you can use such devices with the same battery capacity in mobile applications expected to last longer.

With the new platform, however, some technical restrictions associated with: can not through the elimination of the North Bridge chipset, without further other solutions, such as ion-platform from Nvidia, are combined with the new Atom processors. Ion offers compared to the Intel solution significantly improved graphics and video performance (DirectX 10). The performance of the introduced in 2007 and now incorporated in the atomic GMA 3100 (DirectX 9) provides for playback of HD video is often not enough power. Apple is providing this reason for its Macbooks since 2008 with the powerful Nvidia GeForce solution 9400th.
