Intel Pentium Dual-Core E2160 - Overclocking Wonder

The wars of processor gr�sillent really nowadays and the recent flow of the reductions of the prices of two Intel and the AMD in late July 2007 sent many people of DIY running to seize their new levellings of processor and mother chart. With reductions of the prices until 50%, which could resist?

The movement of AMD was simply a price adjustment to offer a competing line which can support against the impact running of Intel until the much-awaited series of Athlon X4 which see whether all goes well the day during the season of the holidays of end of the year. Intel on the one hand regenerated their semi high entirety with the line at end of processor with cores of central processing unit of treatment of a newer progression, a prompter operation of FSB and new names of model of processor to reflect these changes by increase with the new prices to be paid. For much of enthusiasts who to date are all too with the current of the advantages of the duet of core 2 of Intel and core 2 series of quadruple, it is completely a silly thing on their platform of choice. AMD naturally is always in operation and had a light increase in market share in date of the recent periods. One of the reasons is naturally the advantage of the prices of the platform of AMD which was always a little more accessible than Intel and as well as the competitive prices from central processing unit of treatment, AMD has a decent solution for the market of principal current and budget.

Among the whole those, AMD launched more effective processors of duel-core of level of entry of power right before Computex 2007 under cover of the series of Be-2xxx. The sale and the community in line of AMD quickly rolled up to the top the effective angle of power of these processors, but normally speaking, they offered little advantage compared to competition in our test laboratory. It is because Intel had already launched a new line of processors known under the name of series of Duel-Core of Pentium which replaces the line of Pentium D of ageing and is head have the price indicated above with the series of the Be-2xxx of the AMD. The series of Duel-Core of Pentium is nothing but a version hiding-place of 1MB L2 of the series of duet of core 2, and in oneself, the offers of Intel went also well if not better than the processors of AMD with the similar levels of power as indicated in an article earlier. It is always a puzzle however on why Intel could not simply benefit from the famous nomenclature of duet of 2 qu active core the ' of par with the old classification of Pentium. On a side note, even the series of Celeron lives always above, however the new models 4xx on the market is also based on the architecture of core. They are however processors of plain-core right like Semprons which they face-off. Thus the line of the processor of Intel finally completely shifted with the architecture of core.

The humble processor of line entry of the Duel-Core E2160 de Pentium of duel-core can fol�trer Sp�c. very flexible, but it is really a powerplant of treatment in the disguise because we will show you soon

The processors of Duel-Core of Pentium are currently available in two models, E2140 (1.6GHz) and E2160 (1.8GHz) with a third true iteration 2GHz leaving soon. These processors employ the same cores of Allendale which are characterized by the series of the duet Core2 E4000 based by hiding-place of 2MB L2, but with only half of the functioning hiding-place (1MB). In oneself, the series of Duel-core of Pentium divide all the same devices and characteristics as well.

Is Intel's Core 2 Duo Processor Worth the Hype?

In month bringing to the release of the processor of duet of core 2 - also aimed as Conroe for desktop machines - much of questions are remained without answer. Did Intel make the modifications necessary to compete with AMD 'favours processor of S?

The duet of core 2 is the successor of the microphone-architecture of NetBurst which actuated the majority of the processors of Intel since 2000. The name of mark of Pentium - created in 1993 - does not exist any more with the release of core 2. Moreover, it is the first meeting of Intel 'of the products of book and desktop machine of S since Pentium M was released independently of Pentium 4 of 2003.

The technology of duet of core 2 takes account of a faster piece - up to 40 percent faster with 40 percent less power - that Pentium EE because of novel methods such as the smart hiding-place and broad dynamic execution (WDE).

The dynamic attribution of hiding-place within Intel 'technology smart of hiding-place of S distributes the cache memory effectively according to what is necessary by each core of execution. This has as consequence an optimized execution because the processor of Intel Core Duo allows the increased use of hiding-place.

According to Intel, WDE allows the delivery of more than instructions per rate/rhythm to improve the execution time and energy efficiency. Each core of execution is the generations more largely than preceding of 33%, making it possible each core simultaneously to seek, dispatch, carry out and withdraw up to four full instructions.

The extreme version current - X6800 - devices a freed multiplier, which means the multiplier of clock can be higher adjusted or lower 11.0x (derivative of the report/ratio of 11:1 of the maximum process of bus-with-core examined by Intel). That technology for a piece of Intel of detail goes the new base. X6800 showed the capacity with-top-of being synchronized with 3.4 gigahertz on cooling with the regular air of radiateur/de ventilator. With-top-synchronization is a first for Intel and a great victory for hands over users like gamers at end high.

The tests of evaluation in the multi-media one and the play showed that X6800 can carry out the best processor of AMD until 36% in the execution.

The new pieces are also smaller and less expensive to produce than Intel 'series of Pentium D900 of S, and they are much smaller than Athlon 64 X2s in spite to pack more transistors. Smallest die and a greater quantity of industrial facilities creates more flexibility of evaluation for Intel than AMD.

The technology of duet of core 2 also takes account of compatibility with the current systems and creates the versatility.

Upgraders and manufacturers of system can place the pieces of duet of core 2 in some current mother charts of Pentium D/EE (LGA775) with updates of certain BIOS/Firmware.

A physical desktop machine can be transformed into several virtual systems (all different applications and current operating softwares). Like example: an individual can play a game while a ftp server is carried out and a web server is actuated on another system. While waiting, at the same time, a database can be worked above.

Another important device is the platform of safety that the pieces of duet of core 2 provide. Before the release of the processors of duet of core 2, only GCV of businesses made confidence with the protection of the module of platform (TPM) incorporated in the system. Now, with the duet of core 2, all the GCV have TPM. In the material, all the passwords, openings and personal data are protected from the intruders, the spyware and the robbers of identity.

Allendale, a code name for versions purified of the processors of Conroe with 2MB of the L2 hiding-place, and Merom, with mainly the same configurations as Conroe with a emphase on the low consumption of power to increase the life of a battery of book.

In short, Intel 'release of S of the processor of duet of core 2 comes as announced, fast and of ideal efficiency. With more improvements of core 2 on the manner - and AMD preparing to launch its answer to Conroe with has 4x4 piece (the systems can employ a pair of pieces at end high of duel-core) - what is considered fast now are slow in the future.

Intel Mobile Celeron Dual Core T1400 and T1500

With the financial deceleration striking all around the world, computing industries of businesses particularly fight to maintain their profit margins in control. Result there are a heap of low cost and books accessible from the computer manufacturers to maintain their market share. And here well a processor which adapts this tendency. This processor of Intel as well as incorporates both the power the value. These family of processor of Duel-Core of Celeron are released by Intel this January under the Celeron-marked microprocessors of budget.

Number of the T1400 type-----T1500

Mobile core duel of Celeron of family

Core duel of Celeron against the core duel of Pentium

In practice there is no principal difference between these two processors. The only substantial difference is that the processors duels of core of Celeron are low on L2 the hiding-place C. - with-D. 512KB compared to 1MB.

But this much of the difference is significant because this lack of 512KB of hiding-place will have like consequence the reduction of 10% - of 15% of the execution according to the nature of the application. For example in the event of economic applications it will be 5% - 10% and in the event of intensive application of memory such as the video play and it treating it will be reduction approximately of 15% of execution compared to the processor duel of core of Pentium (with the similar frequencies of clock).

And with your surprise which these processors are belongs to the family of core microphone-architecture of Intel, and all the core basic devices includes.

Some of them are:

Devices of architecture

Technology MX
SE

Additional SE
Carry out the little of d�bronchement (for the protection of virus and malware)
Technology of EM64T (treatment of 64 bits)

Devices of saving in power:

Dig the modes C1/AutoHalt, C1/MWAIT, C2 and C3
Stop the mode of Grant
Mode of sleep
Mode of deep sleep
Basic improvements power of FSB

These processors have the same devices of power-economy as the core containing the microprocessors such as modes of Grant of stop prolonged by HALT prolonged with the increased technology of SpeedStep.

Electric/thermal devices:

V core (v) 0.95 - 1.3
Minimum/maximum operating temperature (�C) 0 - 100
Minimum/maximum power dissipation (W) 7.7 () of mode of sleep profond/56.25 Watts
Thermal power of design (W) 35 Watts

Thus the result is these processors are the great output-cost. When you however put the 'need for T much of power you it need that the additional not very those is for you. Without counting that because I said in the beginning these processors are specifically made for the reduction of the costs. You know that there is a code not written in the world of businesses to reduce the cost to however maintain profit margins. Thus it is right which C. - with-D. the cost of cutting (approximately $30) by sacrificing a little product (less hiding-place) however by maintaining sales and naturally benefit.

Dual-Core Processor Wars: AMD X2 vs Intel Pentium D

There 'war of continuing SA and the last battle continues to offer the promise of handsome prices to the consumers seeking the best substance for their computer.

Since the beginning of the processors of duel-core a little while back the race was lit to see which can obtain the better piece with this technology of processor of duel-core.

During the final days of the battles to a core, there was a dead end between AMD and Intel. Intel 's.A. higher synchronized but could not match speeds which the AMD controlled at the lower frequencies of clock.

The oldest difference between them was their suitability with the specific tasks. AMD had the sector of play in the bag, particularly in terms of possible output-cost with their lower synchronized pieces, which could overclocked at the same speeds as their higher models. Intel with the crown for the general execution. When it comes to the related tasks by office, the processors of Intel can exceed pieces of AMD in these sectors.

Because the capacity to synchronize the pieces higher became increasingly difficult technically, the next stage was to add right another core, allowing theoretically twice as much calculation in a processor of duel-core. It is not exactly how that functions however.

Operating softwares and the programs modern were not conceived with the multiple-core or the processors of duel-core to the spirit. They were conceived to make use of a core on a processor. The principal expenditure which was matched with the multiple computers of processor was the necessary circuits to upwards distribute tasks among the processors and seals of division.

the processors of Duel-core act simply as two places so that the tasks go. Instead of the simple tasks obtaining split and carried out in two different places, as that is the case for the traditional processors with a core, the simple wire obtain split among the cores. This means primarily that each program obtains assigned with a core.

For this reason there is absolutely no increase speed for the play of the pieces of processor of duel-core. Only once the plays themselves were programmed to benefit the processors of duel-core will have it there a difference. It is due to the intensive nature of the plays and calculation necessary for the intense graphs, which for now cannot be duplicated above the multiple cores in processors of duel-core.

Thus again with the battle field.

AMD were the first to present their solution of processor of duel-core to a desktop machine. This their gave a light advantage compared to Intel. In spite of this, AMD gave to people a little a surprise with their new offer.

Always after renowned to give than envisaged much more for the price, these new processors of duel-core were very expensive. Part of what managed to give to AMD a catch on a market previously dominated by Intel was their good evaluation. This shock was not to the bottom good matched with the consumers.

To add the insult to the damage, Intel 'of the offers of processor of duel-core of S entered to the remarkably good value. All the two their initial processors of duel-core cost less than AMD 'the most expensive model not cost S. That 'right of S, AMD 'processor of the cheaper duel-core of more cost S.A. than Intel 's expensive. This put certainly to the ball at Intel 'court of S and was completely disappointing for ventilators of AMD.

AMD managed to present a cheaper model to compete with the offers of Intel best. In spite of this, Intel was always the precursor in this sector.

The execution remains a sector which is not very precise.

With relatively new technology implied it is hard to draw a clear conclusion on which is faster. The operating softwares being directed very recently towards entirely using the technology of processor of duel-core, it is still new territory. Both offer the increased execution, but as for which the perch will order, will have to see us.

For the interval it would be probably recommended to observe just. Being a careful purchaser I prefer to buy in an unquestionable thing, once the things were calmed, that the prices will balance outside and all relative technology will be in place. Then we will be able to obtain a true opinion on where to put your money hard cash gained.

Buying a Computer Processor - Intel Vs AMD

the processors of omputer or the central processing units of treatment (central processing units of treatment) are what carry out programs on computers. A central processing unit of treatment powerful can obtain more made things than a slower processor. There are two principal manufacturers of central processing unit of treatment on today 'the market of the computers of S: AMD and Intel. Both is rather popular with large thus following it is a difficult decision to prefer above the other. Some factors which are useful to consider when comparing the two famous brands are price, execution, lasted, and potential overclocking.

* Price

The differences of the prices between Intel and AMD float constantly thus this can only be one reliable factor to consider if you actively follow tendencies and developments of computer. Each time a new technology of central processing unit of treatment is discovered and presented by Intel or AMD, the prices of the former generation of their processors go down. The price wars between Intel and AMD are wars as much of technology on which obtains to develop the best and improved central processing unit of treatment initially.

* Execution

The execution of central processing unit of treatment depends mainly on the generation of the processor. A time ago when AMD ordered the place of play of PC and offered more value for the dollar. Since Intel released the processor of duet of core 2, however, the company was faster and more stable processors of offer than AMD at the very accessible rates. Intel is currently king when it comes to the central processing units from treatment to raised output, particularly with his more new technology: the basic technology of quadruple. AMD always offers the central processing units of treatment to high output but they are usually more expensive than their counterparts of Intel. This could change in the near future.

* Duration

The processors of AMD accumulate usually much heat by carrying out the intensive user that the applications like the plays and the multiple software of graphs. Often, the coolers standard are not enough to protect from the processors of AMD against damage due to overheating. Intel 'line of duet of core 2 of S of the central processing units of treatment, on the one hand, show the remarkable tolerance with heat even with a standard radiator and ventilator. Nevertheless, if overheated, of the processors of AMD and Intel can be damaged beyond repair. The duration of a central processing unit of treatment is not really a so great exit since the average user of computer generally improves his computer each three approximately years.

* Potential of Overclocking

Only the unconditional gamers and the heavy users of multi-media can refer themselves with the central processing unit of overclocking treatment. Overclocking implies to run the central processing unit of treatment at the speeds larger than its characteristics. For example, it is possible with the overclock Intel 's.E. 6600 of 2.4GHz with 3.2GHz. It is an increment flat beating seam speed of 800MHz! Generally, overclocking a central processing unit of treatment can increase the execution of total system. For now, much of processors of Intel have a greater potential overclocking than processors of AMD.

As mentioned front, you must follow the last updates of Intel and AMD to obtain the best processor on the market. The moment when one or the other manufacturers of central processing unit of treatment release a product, you can expect a great fall in the prices of the moved line of the central processing units of treatment.

Intel Celeron vs Pentium

The processors of Celeron and Pentium are two of Intel 'the best central processing units of treatment of sale of S. They are found in a majority of systems of personal computer. By comparing the two processors it should initially understand that there are various types of processors of Pentium - original Pentium all the manner in Pentium 4 (the last processor of Pentium). The processors of Celeron are more or less the identical ones, although you find them in a broad variety speeds.

The processor of Intel Celeron was always designed to be an inexpensive alternative to the line of processor of Pentium. It is just like a company of car which offers various cars have the price indicated of the truck of luxury to the contract of economy. Celeron is simply descended Pentium, this almost no matter who can have the means (it is primarily the contract). To start, the pieces of Celeron have smaller L2 seals 9128kb compared with 512kb in Pentium 4 Northwood, which represents into slower speeds treatment. In fact, Celerons current has a limit of the frequency of clock approximately of 2.0GHz, for where as Pentium is able speed above 3.0GHz. Moreover, Pentium functions with a lower tension of core because it is more ideal efficiency (1.75V against 1.5V).

In short, Pentium 4 is more powerful than the processor of most advanced Celeron on the market. However, Intel envisaged it to be in this way. Many applications will function just large with a processor of Celeron, in spite a little less power than Pentium 4. It is a manner of cash saving a little money by buying a new PC - but put 't forget that to the stating you obtains what you pay. Processeurs of Celeron is of good quality of Intel, but they will be never as good as Pentium.

This Celeron against the review of Pentium was brought to you by the Science of SciNet and Search Engine of technology. SciNet is not affiliated with or specifically does not approve the processors of Celeron or Pentium or the manufacturer, Intel Corp. Information on the product and configuration please consult of Celeron and Pentium before you buy one or the other processor. It is also an good idea to seek the other reviews and information on the up to date product according to the needs.

The Intel X58 Chipset - Effect on NVidia and Consumers

The tiddlywinks of Intel X58 were released during November of 2008, and were released like successor of X48. Now, the importance here is not simply the name itself; it is a direct challenge with all the companies of material of computer outside there which had made great numbers of the money with far from the mother charts of tiddlywinks of nVidia. Now, how this carries out you, the consumer who aroused an interest for the material of computer?

Well, here 's the thing: the X58 tiddlywinks can run SLI. Yes, I just indicated that: it can run SLI. For those of you who put 't will know which SLI, SLI is a program created by NVidia which makes it possible the computer to run more than one video chart at the same time.

Now, why SLI in X58 does it import so much? Here of well 's the reason why: it carries chipsets of NVidia of advantage of valuable article had above the chipsets of Intel. Traditionally, the chipsets of Intel could only run the interference current and CrossfireX, or right a simple video chart of NVidia without SLI. The chipsets of NVidia, on the one hand, can only run of the graphics cards of NVidia (except corrections for graphics cards of a certain ATI) but can run two in SLI and even three in TriSLI. However, now that X58 can run the graphics cards of NVidia (GPU 's), more consumers will start to turn to these tiddlywinks.

Now, NVidia loses more than one battle here. One of mother charts of chipsets of NVidia of 'main concerns for consumers was the price to be paid. The fact is, of mother charts of these much tiddlywinks of NVidia are more expensive than the mother charts of tiddlywinks of Intel. However, it was justifiable because NVidia always had the SLI and favours of TriSLI compared to the chipsets of Intel. Now that the X58 tiddlywinks can run NVidia GPU 's in SLI, NVidia lost an advantage, and divided in batches its justification for the prices to pay. And because the majority of the consumers go only until running two graphics cards in SLI, NVidia can lose much faithful customers.

However, this does not mean that NVidia will fade far or go bankrupt. The mother charts of the X58 tiddlywinks can run two graphics cards in SLI, but it cannot run three graphics cards in TriSLI. Can of NVidia; therefore, NVidia always obtains to keep the market of enthusiast under his arms. Another NVidia advantage always has is its apparent capacity with the overclock better than of the chipsets of Intel. While this advantage can seem to be mysterious because the majority of the consumers do not know why it is thus, it is always an advantage on which NVidia will be held. Consequently, NVidia will be able to always keep the majority of the consumers who know with the overclock well.

Top 5 Intel Pentium 4 Motherboards

The technology of mother chart so much quickly changes that the notable manufacturers of mother chart like ASUS, gigaoctet and MSI leave with new councils all the few months.

To repair you, I the 'VE consolidated a summary list of the 5 principal mother charts of Pentium 4 which I recommend.

These councils are all large interpreters - you gained 't go remote evil if you establish your system of Pentium 4 by means of them. Thus let 's throw a glance with the list:

Intel D875PBZLK

Intel D875PBZLK is a mother chart of the casing 478 which gives the principal execution for the system baseds by Intel. It supports AGP 8X and 4X, comes with the support integrated from LAN, the USB 2.0 and the periodic configurations of ATA. A very interesting mother chart indeed.

Abit IS-10

The releases of mother chart of casing 478 of Abit IS-10 incorporates the tiddlywinks of Intel 865G to provide speed and the power �poustouflantes. All the standard devices of a good mother chart are - video there and incorporated acoustics, support of LAN, USB 2.0 and periodic ATA. A very popular article on the market.

Gigaoctet 8I848P-G

The gigaoctet 8I848P-G is a mother chart of casing 478 with integrated acoustics, the support 8X and 4X of AGP, LAN of gigabit, USB 2.0 and periodic devices of ATA. This platform of full exercise provides the excellent execution and stability rock'n'roll-solid. A very accessible council which should be in an enthusiast of budget 'a list of purchases of S.

ASUS P4P800E of luxury

ASUS P4P800E of luxury is an offer at end high of the board manufacturer mother. Built around the tiddlywinks of Intel 865PE, this mother chart includes beautiful devices like connectivity 1394, the technolog of IEEE MULTI-RAID, like acoustics of 8 channels, Serial ATA, the USB 2.0 and the LAN of gigabit. You become thoughtless right reading that put 't you? There 's also an interesting slit of Wi-Fi which can be employed for the levelling without wire of LAN.

Gigaoctet 8I 915PL- G

A second council of gigaoctet on our list? Well, yes. The mother chart of casing 775 of the gigaoctet 8I 915PL- G is a full interpreter with integrated acoustics, the support of LAN, the USB 2.0 and the periodic configurations of ATA. In a more important way, it comes with the support from PCI Express, which is necessary to actuate the next generation of the video charts.

Conclusion

OK - what of these mother charts would I buy? I 'the always liked mother charts of gigaoctet and Abit of the VE thus me 'd recommend certainly the gigaoctet 8I848P-G, the gigaoctet 8I 915PL- G and Abit IS-10. Finally, its your own decision - thus consider which devices you have need and your budget, then made choice with the current. Happy purchases!

Features of the Intel X58 Motherboard

Recently, there was more exaggeration of the mother charts of Intel X58 which were released during November of 2008, and now there is much more to write and explain. In this article, you will be informed of part of basic information on this new handset of chips of mother chart, and the new devices that these tiddlywinks of mother chart have which distinguishes them from the rest.

These tiddlywinks of mother chart are made by Intel, a common noun of now in the industry of material of computer. The mother charts X58 are the successors of the X48 series (which were not too popular in previous months) and code name is Tylersburg . Yes, it is of strange, but fresh code name nevertheless.

Now, on the functions of the mother chart. There are three important things which were added on this mother chart. Here 's the list:

1. The mother chart uses the new casing 1366 for the new processors of the core i7 of Intel

2. Support of Intel system of the interconnection of S QuickPath ('QPI)

3. Support of memory of Triple-channel

Now, so much of these contents does not seem reasonable when you see initially this list, you do not worry, because there are many people outside there who do not have any idea what mean unspecified among these three things. Thus, the solution with this problem, is that each of the three devices will be explained in detail and in English who can be included/understood by each one. Each one learns by reading the instructive articles, and it will be the beginning of a series of articles which will be written about each of the three devices. Towards the oddment, you will have the knowledge of each device which will make it possible each one to decide if these devices make the mother chart X58 in value the price be paid in this moment.

EVGA's Next Monster - X58 Classified

During years, EVGA was an important competitor on the market of mother chart, releasing the formed-effective mother charts and of high-quality fol�trant of the chipsets of NVidia and the well-known logo of EVGA. However, since NVidia accepted to make it possible at Intel to go until allowing SLI between two graphics cards, much of board manufacturers mother who were faithful to the chipsets of NVIdia slightly had to go between two Intel and NVidia, and start to make mother charts of the chipsets of NVidia and Intel. And EVGA had to make the same thing.

Now EVGA took its measurements first on the X58 market, and according to much from examinations of EVGA of 'mother charts of S X58 up to now, came with buckling from guns; like their preceding mother charts of tiddlywinks of NVidia, they make surprisingly well. But him 's EVGA, they put 'stops of T right at the with ordinary on level; they constantly try to obtain levels much higher for the execution, being unaware of the price generally, to provide best the best in each aspect of the mother chart. And now, they still did it.

According to rumours given by overclockers world-class, EVGA had recently built a mother chart of prototype of X58 which exceeds well beyond Sp�c. regular of the normal mother charts. This, my friends, is called classified X58. Now, traditionally, EVGA had called its booster of mother charts FTW (for the victory); for example, the mother chart of EVGA 780i FTW. Now, they threw this nickname (for now, for always, I put 't undoubtedly know), and employed the new nickname classified . Now, the name itself intimidates slightly; when we think of the word classified , we think of something secret, something which can even be dangerous. And yes, this mother chart can be, indeed, a mother chart of KILLER. Not for us, but for other suppliers of mother chart, because it can behave so much although it can leave all other mother charts in her dust.

Up to now, not much of information was published. However, I know this much; there are three full slits of x16 PCI Express for Tri-SLI configurations, and always part left for the slit of x1 PCI Express for the audio charts. Now, here 's the part of killer; there 's another slit of PCI Express. There that means 'about total of 4 slits of PCI Express, all on a mother chart, and of on the left for acoustics. It is, indeed, an enthusiast a 's dream-come-truth; you can have Tri-SLI, good acoustics, AND you can now have a chart of PhysX which increases further your play from PC/exp�rience of graphs. Can 't require more than that!

Analysis and Review of Intel P35, X38, and X48 Chipset Motherboards

Well, him 's be perhaps a month since Intel released its tiddlywinks of the mother chart X48 as a her signal-off-tea-line, tiddlywinks of boat of flag. Starting, foreseeable, at the rather high prices extending anywhere from $250 to $340 according to if the mother chart employs DDR2 or DDR3, X48 the 's gradually arranged inside like favorable tiddlywinks of mother chart. And while the prices of RAM DDR3 continue to go down, X48 the 'abundance of S in future machines develop witha slow but sure rate.

The mother charts of Intel X38 develop also continuously in popularity while the prices continue to decrease ata pleasant rate. X38 the 's can now be recommended even for people with budgets between low- and the semi-budgets, some share near $800 to $950. X38 's always support DDR2, so that is one of its reasons of its popularity. The other reason is the growing popularity mentioned above of RAM DDR3. Much X38 's also support RAM DDR3, thus it is to gain more popularity by RAM DDR3.

Now, this leaves us with the old man but confidence P35 's. maintaining to You could wonder: Are they still value? Nevertheless will they be employed as abundantly as they were accustomed to being before the release of the mother charts of tiddlywinks of X38 and X48 Intel?

Well, they will be always value, but will be aimed naturally at more computer manufacturers of low-budget. As X38 's and X48 's become more abundant, the prices of the mother charts P35 will also decrease, because there is now newer, better chipsets. P35 will continue to exist like excellent tiddlywinks with excellent configurations, but will be withdrawn now with the field of low-budget. That necessarily does not mean that it lost its global value. It simply in oneself shifted its position on the market.

The Intel X58 Chipset - Effect on NVidia and Consumers

The tiddlywinks of Intel X58 were released during November of 2008, and were released like successor of X48. Now, the importance here is not simply the name itself; it is a direct challenge with all the companies of material of computer outside there which had made great numbers of the money with far from the mother charts of tiddlywinks of nVidia. Now, how this carries out you, the consumer who aroused an interest for the material of computer?

Well, here 's the thing: the X58 tiddlywinks can run SLI. Yes, I just indicated that: it can run SLI. For those of you who put 't will know which SLI, SLI is a program created by NVidia which makes it possible the computer to run more than one video chart at the same time.

Now, why SLI in X58 does it import so much? Here of well 's the reason why: it carries chipsets of NVidia of advantage of valuable article had above the chipsets of Intel. Traditionally, the chipsets of Intel could only run the interference current and CrossfireX, or right a simple video chart of NVidia without SLI. The chipsets of NVidia, on the one hand, can only run of the graphics cards of NVidia (except corrections for graphics cards of a certain ATI) but can run two in SLI and even three in TriSLI. However, now that X58 can run the graphics cards of NVidia (GPU 's), more consumers will start to turn to these tiddlywinks.

Now, NVidia loses more than one battle here. One of mother charts of chipsets of NVidia of 'main concerns for consumers was the price to be paid. The fact is, of mother charts of these much tiddlywinks of NVidia are more expensive than the mother charts of tiddlywinks of Intel. However, it was justifiable because NVidia always had the SLI and favours of TriSLI compared to the chipsets of Intel. Now that the X58 tiddlywinks can run NVidia GPU 's in SLI, NVidia lost an advantage, and divided in batches its justification for the prices to pay. And because the majority of the consumers go only until running two graphics cards in SLI, NVidia can lose much faithful customers.

However, this does not mean that NVidia will fade far or go bankrupt. The mother charts of the X58 tiddlywinks can run two graphics cards in SLI, but it cannot run three graphics cards in TriSLI. Can of NVidia; therefore, NVidia always obtains to keep the market of enthusiast under his arms. Another NVidia advantage always has is its apparent capacity with the overclock better than of the chipsets of Intel. While this advantage can seem to be mysterious because the majority of the consumers do not know why it is thus, it is always an advantage on which NVidia will be held. Consequently, NVidia will be able to always keep the majority of the consumers who know with the overclock well.

Intel to help Chinese netbookers

Intel facilitates it so that the computer manufacturers Chinese of white-box enter the hottest segment of the market by the offer that they them packages of netbook aimed four market segments.

According to a Monday report/ratio by the industry-observer DigiTimes de Taiwanese, the four packages are defined by cost as follows (called in the renminbi of yuan of China 'of S, or people 'currency of S ):

* 1.750 RMB (�172, $256)
* 1.751-2.100 RMB (�172-�207, $256-$307)
* 2.101-2.450 RMB (�207-�241, $307-$358)
* 2.451-2.800 RMB (�241-�276, $358-$410)

The package low-evaluated, according to sources with the suppliers of netbook quoted by DigiTimes, to be composed of a processor of the N270 atom, 945GSE expresses the tiddlywinks, a posting of 8.9 inches, a memory 512MB, the order 8G/16GB with semiconductor, and Linux - that we assume can be Moblin very well.

To all the three other packages are brought back are based on same the processor and tiddlywinks, but will have postings of 10.2 inches and other components. The N270 atom and its tiddlywinks join together a power of 11.8 Watts and cost $83 (�56) in a good number of thousand, leaving the abundance of the budget of surplus of money cash and power in the packages of top-end for these anonymities of other components.

The inclusion of Linux/du Moblin in the mixture carries out us to speculate that the netbooks established with these packages can be aimed in China 'number of S the large one of users for the first time of computer, seeing as how Windows seems to catch up with Linux among users of netbook to the current of Redmond 'of omnipresent OS of S.

DigiTimes 'sources of S also quote internal evaluations of Intel which project that although the netbooks now explain 10 percent of forwardings of book in the whole world, this number will increase with 20 percent 2012, with 60 percent of the market growing of netbook being, women who concentrate mainly on the glance of the product.

The article isn �free space of T if this mode-focused qualifier is DigiTimes � belief or Intel 's - although we doubt of the manufacturer of integrated circuits would be likely to publicly alienate potentially a good piece of his user base by formulating such a comment.

The didn of Intel 't answers immediately our request for explanation. �

Intel prepares six-core Xeon

the Quadruple-core and the Octo-core could be the current mania next-GEN for desktop machines and waiters, but Intel seems wants to as well launch a line of the central processing units of treatment in the interval. Intel will be added above to their line of Xeon with the core of �Dunnington� at the end of this year, a central processing unit of treatment which will have a total of six cores under the cap.

Dunnington, which was announced three years ago, is designed to be a piece of company-class and will comprise 3MB L2 hiding-place divided per pairs of cores, and seals divided 16MB L3. According to the run slides, it will employ �slightly dated � 1066MHz FSB, and is probably aimed preventing Opteron from once regaining any ground AMD returns on their feet.

Intel prepares new mobile platform, Centrino 2, anyone?

All seems to indicate that Intel will push a new mobile platform at the end of this year which will make a success of very popular and successful Centrino. A certain number of publications on line bet on Centrino 2 name for the nearest mobile platform which will probably amplify small central processing units of treatment extending from 1.2GHz with 2.4GHz built using a process 45nm, plus a range of performances which will measure up to 2.80 gigahertz. New the chipsets is also entering with updated graphics that the core indicated to double the execution of current X3100 GPU. Among choices of network management, one expects that WiMax makes a great beginning in models of laptop of flagship. This last technology received the support astounding of the manufacturers, but the adoption was extremely slow on the market of consumers.

Intel profit beats expectations despite plunging sales

Intel announced its last financial results, hopes beating of the market and the declaration of worst was finished for computing industry even while its benefit of the first quarter fell to approximately 56 percent one year earlier. Specifically, the largest manufacturer of the computer-piece of the world saw a clear benefit of $647 million, to the bottom of $1.4 billion last year, whereas the income dropped 26% to $7.1 billion.

Although one thinks that netbooks are one stains luminous on the market, income of the processors of atom and the chipsets which lead them were also in bottom of 27 percent sequentially, to $219 million. All these numbers in fall a healthy quantity are once compared with other quarters, but the executives of Intel believe that the things could have been much worse if not for their operational effectiveness and the fact that the inventory was reduced 19 percent below the levels of the fourth quarters. The company also stated that they were on the way to reduce the operational expenditure 2009 of 2008.

President Paul Otellini believes that worst is finished of a prospect for correction of inventory and adjustment for level for request, and claims that the models of forwarding start to turn over to the normal seasonal models. In spite of its optimism, Intel refused to provide prospects for income for the quarter running, quoting economic uncertainty and the limited visibility continuous.

Intel's Atom not just for Netbooks anymore

Intel 'piece of Netbook of principal support of S finds a house in desktop machines, underlined by recent advertisements of Hewlett-Packard and Acer.

The HP MediaSmart LX195 uses a processor of the atom 1.6GHz
(Credit: Hewlett-Packard)

Wednesday, the details emerged from the HP of 'waiter LX195, a waiter at the house of S MediaSmart packing 1.6GHz a processor of atom 230 that �S.A. evaluated with $400 with 1GB of memory and a ordering of the hard drive 640GB. Up to now, the HP had employed Intel Celeron and Advanced Micro Devices � processors of Sempron. (Note: the update adds Intel Celeron.)

Earlier this month, Acer unrolled Acer AspireRevo, small, luisante box which increases the atom with tiddlywinks of ion of Nvidia to amplify the execution of graphs. One expects that this has the price shown clearly below $300 for some models.

Asus was one of the first to highlight a desktop machine Atom-based head-swivelling--the box of Eee, which was updated recently with graphs of ATI.

By design, the atom is a processor power-treasurer and, consequently, slower than Intel 'the traditional architecture of piece of core 2 of S. the HP, for example, lance its waiter of MediaSmart like hub of storage, than typically the doesn 't require much punch of treatment. And the atom is cheap--atom 230 is $29, while the comparative pieces of Celeron are approximately $34 but draw much more power. And the processors of office of traditional duet of core 2 start to approximately $110.

Intel maintained a long time that the atom has a place in so-called Nettops and, last year, highlighted atom 330 of duel-core specifically for this market.

This strategy was validated this week with Ta�peh, where the ASRock manufacturer of mother chart showed a desktop machine with a processor of atom 330 of duel-core and tiddlywinks of ion of Nvidia. One expects that also Asus updates the line of box of Eee with a processor of atom of duel-core.

Intro to Intel 810

�

A new type of controller of memory with the integrated technology of graphs.

Support up to 512 of mb SDRAM.

Integrated controller of audio-codec.

No bus of BOARD!

810 is tiddlywinks inexpensive bench on the technology of BX. However, the new bus of memory will come on other wholes from piece as well. The integrated controller of audio-codec allows achievements of acoustics and modem of software. This meens that no healthy chart or modem is required. And finally we see the first attempt to produce the modern PC the 's without old bus of BOARD.

Pieces in 810

The tiddlywinks are composed of three pieces:

Intel & Nvidia Head to Court Over Chip Sets

A quarrel deprived between Intel Corp. and Nvidia Corp. moved with the audience of court, throwing a new light on competition in a category of product called of the whole of piece.

The battle is articulated on licensing agreements of patents signed in 2004 between the two chipmakers, who both are based in Santa Clara, California Intel, the supplier dominating of the pieces which act as brains of the GCV, also sells the majority of the whole of piece which connects microprocessors of Intel to the remainder of a system. Nvidia, which is most known for pieces of graphs, employed the agreements to enter the market of tiddlywinks, too.

Intel set in motion a procedure in the court Monday of chancellery of Delaware, seeking a judgement which them agreements -- what make it possible pieces of Nvidia to connect at Intel existing microprocessors -- put 't are prolonged with newer models which add a device called a controller of memory. That the device is a principal sales point of a family of microprocessor called Nehalem that Intel started to offer in November.

Nvidia disputes this interpretation of the agreement, and shows Intel of the test to limit competition. Mani�re that they would like to go ahead is to close with key everyone out of anything related to the platform of Intel, with Jen-Hsun says Huang, Nvidia 'senior officer of S, in an interview.

�

Mr. Huang said the hadn of Nvidia 't designed to present tiddlywinks for Nehalem for one year and half, affirming that the only reason to continue now is to tighten the smaller company with fees. They try to slow down us downwards, it said.

Throw Mulloy, a spokesperson of Intel, said which is not what we make. It alleged that Nvidia had violated the agreement by affirming it has a licence to make whole of piece of Nehalem, and said that the costume came only after the companies discussed the exit in deprived for more than one year.

Competition decreased in whole by piece for microprocessors of Intel, because several suppliers reduced their hearth on the market. Nvidia provided a counterpoint, including tiddlywinks called Ion for Intel 'the processor of atom of S which moved whole of piece of Intel in computers of Apple Inc.

Intel puts five Xeons on death row

Intel's newly released Nehalem EP-core Xeon processors have inflicted their first casualties: five older Xeons are scheduled to be phased out.

According to Intel's Product Change Notification #109186-00 (PDF), you'll be able to buy these death-row Xeons in a retail box until January 9, 2010.
Click here to find out more!

The Xeons set for the chopping block all have 1333MHz frontside buses. The two parts with X in their product number are 45nm, 95-watt Yorkfield parts, the three without are 65nm, 65-watt Conroes.

The doomed processors are:

* Quad-core 2.66GHz Xeon X3350 with 12MB L2 cache
* Quad-core 2.5GHz Xeon X3320 with 6MB L2 cache
* Dual-core 3GHz Xeon 3085 with 4MB L2 cache
* Dual-core 2.66GHz Xeon 3075 with 4MB L2 cache
* Dual-core 2.33GHz Xeon 3065 with 4MB L2 cache

In microprocessor evolution as in nature, there are winners and there are losers. According to Intel, these parts are being phased out because "market demand ... has shifted to other Intel processors."

Intel's silicon brick roadmap

Intel gave us the lucky notches a launching of post-Nehalem giving of the instructions to the overall aspects of its short-term roadmaps of processor. Here 'fast excursion of SA by the synopsis of the matters.

Intel reassured us that it could see Moore 'progression of law of S being maintained for ten more approximately years with the contractings of process and other developments in its roadmaps. Inexorable rise in the transistor counts on the matrices, 731 million with quadruple-cores of Nehalem, should continue above this period. The great exit is people including/understanding how to employ parallelism.

Processors of waiter of Intel

Intel 'of the platforms of waiter of S groups covers several markets: high-output computer (the HPC), computer of Internet and the cloud, migration centres of RISC, storage and centre computer virtualized. Its constitutive blocks are central processing units of treatment, chipsets, the LAN, SSD/RAID, panels/KDKs and software. Its platforms of processor are Itanium (9000 series) for the waiters mission-critical, Xeon 7000s for the waiters at end high of company, Xeon 5000s for the traditional waiters of quadruple and duel-casing of company, and Xeon 3000s for the simple waiters of SME of casing. Obviously Xeon 7000s and Itanium compete with each one with the 'eyes of S but in Intel 's.

Much was done in Intel conceiving in devices support Virtual Server to obtain if all goes many apps functioning in virtual machines functioning as quickly as of the apps functioning in a non-virtualized waiter.

We had fast gambades by Xeon 5500 of the 'devices of S and then obtained with not very interesting, Westmere-EP, the processor of the second generation of Nehalem (5000 series) built with a forthcoming process 32nm. Westmere is basically a contracting of Nehalem on the process 32nm.

It will have six cores, improvements of hiding-place and better energy efficiency, and will be announced in 2010. Also it will be casing-compatible with the 5500, thus the suppliers of waiter can employ the councils of waiter and the existing processors of Westmere of catch directly inside. The graph showed a bus of NCV 2 Westmere binder with a transistorized disc of Intel X25-E, and a controller of Intel 10GbitE.

Intel has an analogy of tick-tock for its developments of technology. With drill is a contracting of process employing current microphone-architecture. The last drill was the movement with transformer technology 45nm current. With tock is the introduction of a new processor microphone-archictecture and Nehalem is the last event of tock.

It will be followed drill 32nm which will be in their turn followed by next microphone-architecture after Nehalem.

On before 7000 the 7400 is 6 a processor of the core 45nm which 's casing-compatible with the 7300 precedents. It will be followed of Nehalem-EX in second half of this year and then Westmere-EX a certain hour later.

Nehalem-EX, built on the process 45nm, is a processor of 8 cores designed for 4 platforms of casing, meaning 64 wire (2 wire/core always). It will employ an extensible interconnection of memory of Intel with shock absorbers and which Intel called the technology of the second generation of input-output with the virtualisation.

There will be technology of VT from Intel in the processor (VT-x), the tiddlywinks (VT-d) and for the network (VT-c). The idea is to obtain these components functioning better together so that the suppliers of waiter go all-Intel instead of employing third chipsets and interfaces of communications. Thus there 's no need for fibre Handle above adaptor Ethernet, a CAN, because these devices of initiating VT plus Intel 'of software FCOE of S will obtain the NIC from Intel 10GbitE squirting outside packages of FCOE at the speed close to wire to the devices direct-attaches.

There will be queues of device of virtual machine (VMDq) to improve the exit by unloading data matching with the NIC. In a waiter virtualized the virtual machine (VM) more or less of maintenance directly with the NIC without having to pass by the hypervisor. (Naturally this different VMs in the cycles from central processing unit of treatment of use of waiter means to carry out the work of FCOE however. For why the doesn of Intel 't goes FCOE-unload is beyond me. It tried to make the same thing with the TCP/IP unload, to say there was not no need, and for pretty lost much this argument.)

Intel presented the migration of cable thus of VMs can be easily transferred between various waiters from Xeon. Previously, notwithstanding the overall compatibility of instruction between 3000s, 5000s and 7000 Xeons, VMs could only be moved between the similar types of processor.

We can await a version of Nehalem of the 3300, probably the 3400 and probably at the end of this year or 2010.

Nvidia may not be licensed for future AMD chipsets

Nvidia does not benefit from a pleasant moment not in the businesses of tiddlywinks of mother chart at present. Not only Intel it went until continuing Nvidia after the company claimed that it had a licence to make chipsets for the core i7, but it maintaining glances as if Nvidia is not authorized to do with chipsets for future processors of AMD one or the other.

Betanews announces that vice-president Pat Patla of unit of company of the waiter of AMD claimed that �for 2010 advancing, the solutions leaving AMD will be AMD and on AMD currently.� The site indicates that Patla �did not believe that the situation of authorization between its company [AMD] and Nvidia would make it possible Nvidia to produce the chipsets which support future platforms of AMD.�

The comment was formulated with a press conference where AMD revealed its new six-core central processing units of treatment of �Istanbul� Opteron, as well as of future roadmaps of processor of Opteron which showed that plans released its 32nm �bulldozer� 16 central processing units of treatment of Opteron of core in 2011. According to betanews, Patla indicated that �we put 't intend to see new chipsets of Nvidia or Broadcom for achievements of waiter in 2010. But they will continue to support all the existing platforms advancing per 2010.

It is little clearly at present if Patla referred only to the platform of Opteron of AMD when it said that �the solutions leaving AMD will be AMD and on AMD�, or if this applies to the platforms of office of AMD as well. As well as to produce chipsets of SLI for AMD 'central processing units of treatment of office of S, Nvidia previously had a notable presence in platforms at end high of the work station of AMD too. The pro tiddlywinks 250 of the nForce 3 was made specifically for the central processing unit of treatment of Opteron of AMD, and Nvidia also developed the tiddlywinks of the nForce 680a SLI, which was the only tiddlywinks which supported the biprocesseuse platform of quadruple FX of AMD.

If it is filter indeed outside at the platform of office of AMD, then in Nvidia should have one difficult moment in the businesses of tiddlywinks. With the complaints of Intel that Nvidia does not have any licence to produce chipsets for central processing units of treatment of Intel with an integrated controller of memory, plus the plans of Intel to attach its central processing units of treatment of atom of �Pineview� to the chipsets of Intel with the integrated graphs, this would leave only Nvidia with the support for Nvidia old man and central processing units of treatment of AMD and Via the central processing unit of treatment of nano.

We asked AMD and Nvidia to comment on this, and to confirm if the restriction of licence applies just to the platform of Opteron of AMD, or with its platforms of office as well. We will give you an update as we have more information.

Intel Reveals New In-Store Concept Technologies at Retail’s Big Show

Tie profit of an high-execution and a piece of ideal efficiency that the company is already sold to the computer manufacturers, Intel Corporation today revealed a system with the detail of proof-of-concept of the sales outlet (position) which could lower the total costs of a store of the property while improving satisfaction of the customer.

Indicated to national convention with the detail of federation (NRF) in New York, the proof-of-concept of Intel shows more late in digital technology of signage and sales outlet in a factor of the shape of kiosk, and shows how technology can increase the experiment with the detail of purchases.

The obliging consumer's choices for the self-service filled of fuel by tendencies of e-business, the demonstration of kiosk includes the devices which match the advantages of the purchases of Internet, such as the access in suggestive real-time of sale of inventory, as well as to show promotions, details of product and reviews of customer. These devices, in their turn, facilitate the occasions of worms the high-sale and cross-country race-selling of associated sales, which will increase the result of a retailer and the fidelity of customer.

The demonstration of position is based on the mobile processor of very popular duet and ideal efficiency of 45nm Intel� Core.2 which is interior hundreds of million laptops and GCV of today. Compared with the platforms of position of legacy, the processor in the demonstration can allow more than one reduction of 70 percent of use required of power while always providing as much as the double the quantity of execution of treatment believed as former generations of processors.1 in oneself, of energy saving of this system of position are transmitted to the retailers by invoices of lower energy.

technologies INTEL-based will make sure that retailers well-are placed to enter by the current economy one succeeded and future advantageous, while providing to their customers more faster information and more easily than ever front,� said Joe Jensen, managing director, Intel included the Division of calculation. �We hope for the combination to improve an experiment with the detail of a customer, whereas the sales also of weapons joins more exact information and to reduce costs of operations, such as invoices of electricity and maintenance, is an irresistible proposal so that the retailers of the world benefit from what the innovation of technology of Intel must offer.�

The platform of proof-of-concept comprises the technology of vPro. of Intel� (vPro. of Intel�) with technology management of � of Intel activates and the lower costs of maintenance of offers, management improved of power and options of safety such as the diagnosis of system. The technology of vPro of Intel makes it possible administrators to control remote systems, making it possible to stop all the systems lasting during the night with energy saving of increase and the need of the technicians to go on the spot for the maintenance of system, having for result the decreased carbon emission and to lower operational expenditure for retailers.

The modular concept of the system of proof-of-concept thus supports easy levellings with the platforms of the second generation of central processing unit of treatment the retailers can remain in the synchro with last advances of technology.

Intel launches mobile device chips, roadmap

With its forum of realizer of Beijing this week, Intel confirmed it is forwarding ultra mobile tiddlywinks for UMPCs (GCV ultra-mobiles) and MIDS (mobile devices of Internet). She also claimed to take a mobile processor of second generation based on silicon 45nm and High-K technology metal carries transistor.

Intel shared the first time its vision based on Windows of UMPC it there has one year, and indicated its SEMI vision Linux-based yesterday.

Intel 's new UMP2007 platform

The two parts of Stealey, doubled A100 and A110, are based on cores of Pentium M synchronized with 600MHz and 800MHz, respectively. Both have speeds of 400MHz FSB (bus on before-side), 512KB of the L2 hiding-place, and a package of 14 X of 19mm. Both are built on transformer technology 90nm and have a TDP (thermal power of design) of 3 Watts.

The northbridge 945GU supports until 1GB memory DDR2 with single channel, via a pair of interfaces of SO-DIMM. It has IGP of the GEN 3.5 Intel (processor of graphs integrated) synchronized with 133MHz, an interface of LVDS, and one 1 interface of PCI Express of lane.

Roadmaps

Going ahead, Intel takes has Silverthorne processor mobile device based on its industry-main thing process of silicon 45nm and High-K technologies metal carries transistor. Silverthorne will join to has with Poulsbo with piece of companion (northbridge/southbridge integrated), in Intel 'tiddlywinks mobile of second generation of S, called Menlow.

Interesting, the targets include the devices not only ultra-mobiles and mobiles, but also the desktop machines, work stations, and the waiters, illustrating the universal call of the power-effectiveness.

The additional prospect on Intel 'for the inking film news Beijing for S can be found in a perspicacious comment by the notable magazine Tim Bajarin of PC, here. Another report/ratio of store of PC on Intel 'of the inking film news of S today can be found here.

SiS Back On Stage: The SiS730 Chipset for Duron and Athlon

LOCATED to present the Top-League of the Set of chip-Manufacturers?

During years the Taiwanese manufacturers of tiddlywinks weren 't able competing with much Intel 'products of tiddlywinks of S in terms of execution as well as success, but recently times changed. Via 'enormous success of S in 2000 gave Ali and LOCATED enough hope to return out of the darkness maintaining too. It is not astonishing that Intel will not threaten its business of central processing unit of treatment by providing chipsets for the processors competiting of Duron and Athlon. Continuous AMD to specify that he does not want to become a manufacturer of tiddlywinks, but a simply certain kind of indicator of technology. Instead of that, AMD wants mainly to show to the manufacturers tiddlywinks which tiddlywinks of Athlon should resemble.

Via was the first company to ensure proactivement of the chipsets for processors of AMD, this fact being one of the sweeping forces to establish the two processors of AMD on the market and themselves as a one of the higher suppliers of tiddlywinks today. Now, more than one year after the moment when Athlon 'successes of S were still dubious, Ali and LOCATED enter the market of AMD-punt-form finally too. The laboratories of Acer jumped the first two generations of Athlon and provides to its MaGiK1 tiddlywinks the support for GDR SDRAM and the recently announced processors of Athlon with 133 megahertz FSB. Via also works with its chipsets of GDR for Athlon (Apollo KT266). The first tiddlywinks of the integrated systems by silicon (LOCATED) are called 730s and can be called a chief of work of integration. A simple piece of BGA (672 balls) accomodates all the functions for which the other companies need at least two pieces. This interesting product is most certainly in value a glance.

Devices of the tiddlywinks of LOCATED 730S

The list of device is indeed completely long. It is particularly interesting because the 730 is composed of only one simple piece of BGA. The LOCATED one decided to remain with memory of SDRAM, which gained 't is any true disadvantage for the next months. Please also read Tom 'evaluation of S of the tiddlywinks of KT133A. The reference marks there prove rather clearly that only the higher speed of FSB provides an increase in execution already. The clocks of bus of processor of 100 and 133 megahertz (this last for new C-Athlons) are supported by SiS730, giving you the option to use all the central processing units of treatment available of Duron and Athlon from 500 to 1200 megahertz and over there.

Functional diagram

The functional diagrams look at usually enough the more or less even thing. He 's simply interesting to see that all was integrated in a piece.

Also for casing 370: SiS630 and SiS635

The LOCATED one also offers the 630, the tiddlywinks 630S and 630E during a few months now, which includes the same basic devices. The principal difference is their support of the processors of Pentium III and Celeron.

If you want more information on logic of core of LOCATED, please throw a glance in the following page on the Web site of LOCATED:

Systems Corp. - product, logic of Silicon Integrated of core

The LOCATED one also works on tiddlywinks of GDR for systems of Pentium III and Celeron. With a little of chance, we could also see tiddlywinks of Athlon with GDR supporting as well.

Solution or complete platform 3D?

To a certain extent the chipsets of LOCATED are the products of Bohemian. Impressive being integrated, they are much less expensive to produce than solutions of two-piece. Consequently they seem predestinated for the inexpensive solutions of office, because they come with all the components which a commercial computer could have need: The graphs standard 2D/3D functions, a fast interface of ide, noise and even a controller of network - all is included for free. To have all this on the mother chart clearly helps to save the costs for the complete machine.

Astonishing enough by LOCATED decided to include a port of external AGP as well. Thanks to that, you can equip a mother chart SiS730 with a fast graphics card 3D, manufacturing a machine of play from it. I can imagine that many users could be interested by a cheap mother chart with these tiddlywinks instead of expensive buying one Via the solution. In this moment it is clearly more convenient than the gamers to save up to $50 on the mother chart and invest this money in a faster graphics card. The total execution will be usually better outward journey in this way.

By studying the reference marks satisfy take into account which I employed completely a slow processor, Duron 700 megahertz. That 's one of the cheaper models available ones in this moment. Nevertheless this central processing unit of treatment is rather quickly to produce good rates of reinforcement with the plays 3D currents - provided that you employ a good panel of the three-dimensional charts. The applications of Windows function usually rather quickly in any event, so that the software as MS Office can be left out of these considerations.

Gift 't forget that these thoughts are based about the fact that SiS730 is a solution of budget. He 's not tiddlywinks for the systems at end high.

Stability and drivers

I remember that there are a few years much people complained about the exits about reliability and stability of the platforms based above Via, LOCATED, VLSI, UMC and chipsets of Ali. While the VLSI was bought by Philips and UMC does not conceive any more of the chipsets, the others three recently provided the reliable and stable products for a completely certain hour now. I remember mother charts prototype to run so unstable that you had to spend all the night to obtain finished reference marks. The council of the SiS730 reference caused simple hang up again or no other trouble of the whole, which was a pleasant surprise, considering that it is always a panel of prototype. I must however complain about LOCATED the 'support about driver. Naturally they have their own AGP and visual drivers, but I missed a driver of refining of ide, which could have improved the execution of hard drive.

Does Intel have reasons with the threatened feeling?

Sometimes the domestic users do not realize owing to the fact that a great quota of all the sales of computer is employed by companies. Only one third of all the GCV can be found in the houses. If it were your work of order several dozen or even hundreds of computers for your company, you would start to make pointed calculations of the prices of razor.

Up to now there weren 't much of chances to assemble a bottom-of-the-range computer of Duron as cheap as a system based on Intel 's Celeron. The reason is very simple. There wasn 't any inexpensive tiddlywinks with the integrated graphs available. This situation looks at if you want to accumulate INTEL-based �value � - the completely different computer. The decision makers could select Intel 810 or 815 the tiddlywinks, Via 's ProSavage PM133 or Ali Aladdin TNT2. All include at least the functions of graphs.

If you want to build one on inexpensive computer on a processor of Duron, you recently were likely to employ Via 's ProSavage KM133, which also comes with the integrated graphs. Unfortunately, ProSavage KM133 only became available recently, and before the purchasers usually permuted with a solution INTEL-based.

SiS730 seems to be the perfect inexpensive solution. Our tests were very painless, proving enough well that the tiddlywinks seem to be matured. There are many reasons for which I would prefer certainly a system of Duron to a system of Celeron. The processor always could offer a much better report/ratio of price/performance. Celeron is limited to the clock of bus of processor of 66 megahertz (to 800 megahertz him 's 100 megahertz finally), whereas Duron functions to 100 megahertz double-pumped. Finally Duron can be associated with memory with PC100 or PC133 SDRAM, whereas the systems of Celeron usually function with memory of 66 megahertz. Moreover, there is from now on no difference of the prices between 66 megahertz and 133 memory of megahertz SDRAM. The question about the speed of memory is very important forchipsets with the integrated graphs, because the execution of graphs depends largely on the bandwidth of data between the core of graphs and of main memory, which is partly used as memory of graphs.

Reference mark

Locate bandwidth of memory

I had the practice SiSoft Sandra 6.0 to obtain some information of execution on the interface of memory. Everyone will agree with me that come does not seem to be a good interpreter. Control left 'of S the real-world evaluates now to see how this affects the daily software 'of S.

BAPCo SYSmark 2000

In my opinion BAPCo 's SYSmark is always the best continuation of evaluation to determine the total execution of businesses. However, the real numbers are rather theoretical, because even a machine of 300 megahertz can provide execution enough to treat documents, diffusion covers or similar substance. The Green line is the result of reference mark using the integrated engine of graphs of SiS730. Blue represents the result using a pro graphics card of GeForce 2. As envisaged, the advantage of a so expensive graphics card above the integrated engine is not interesting the mention.

BAPCo SYSmark 2000 - Windows 98

Because you could see in the front diagram, the new handset of SiS730 chips cannot beat Via 's KT133. That also applies to the new handset of chips of KT133A, because it has to only be updated to support 133 megahertz FSB (model Athlon C). Tiddlywinks of LOCATED 'of S 730 support already this bus of processor by defect.

The delta of execution between the LOCATED one and Via the tiddlywinks is between 3 and 12% out of Windows 98, according to the application. The intensive applications of memory like Bryce, elastic reality (modelling and returning 3D), the first (video publishing) or the paradox (data base software) suffer clearly from the bandwidth of LOCATED low SDRAM. However, you gained 't can obtain these points using a system of Celeron 700.

BAPCo SYSmark 2000 - Windows 2000

The situation is completely the same one in Windows 2000. Just the result of point of power is considerable higher using has Via the mother chart KT133. You can also see that both chipsets are almost on the par in Photoshop 5.5, aspiration 9 of Corel, first 5.1 and word 2000.

Demonstration MDK2

MDK2 is a gunner of action of Direct3D-based. We employed the version of demonstration for the evaluation: As you can see, the engine of graphs integrated of the tiddlywinks of LOCATED is not exactly a large interpreter. By employing the graphics card of GeForce 2, there is very small difference between SiS730S and Via 's Apollo KT133.

Packing of truck of benz of Mercedes

The truck packing the demonstration offers the very good quality of image if you light all the possible devices 3D. However, that would have made the play and the reference mark unplayable on the engine of graphs of LOCATED, which 's why I carried out these tests with arrangements of defect. Even with 640x480, this play is not recreation exploiting our configuration of system of reference mark. 22 images a second are not sufficient for the play of play. After connection in the pro chart of GeForce 2, you can easily play MBTR with until 1280x1024 on the LOCATED one and Via the system. With 1024x768 and 1280x1024, this play functions even more quickly on the platform of LOCATED! As soon as you increase the resolution, you can see how the bandwidth of lower memory of SiS730 has gradually more impact on the rate of reinforcement.

Arena of tremor III

Tremor III is absolutely unplayable with the engine of graphs of LOCATED. Even with 640x480, the system could not even mark 20 fps. Still, using the nVIDIA fast GeForce 2 pro thorough of council to the top of the rate of reinforcement 5-10 times. Via 's KT133 is approximately 10% faster than SiS730.

SPECviewperf 6.1.2

The differences in execution between the LOCATED one and Via the tiddlywinks are much larger using the high reference mark at end SPECviewperf d' OpenGL. It can also be employed like test for the stability of system, because it will most probably break if a component of system surely does not function.

The design engineering (DRV-07) more quickly runs approximately 35% on Via the council than on SiS730 - a clear homage to the better execution of memory of tiddlywinks KT133. All other applications function certainly more quickly on panel KT133 as well. If you envisage to launch such programs at end raised, you should spend the higher price of has Via the mother chart oftiddlywinks KT133.

Conclusion

The revision of the mother charts of prototype formerly was completely a piece of work. Not this one. No hang rises, aucunes resulting from driver. All was right as with an entirely matured product. I guess that the LOCATED one spend much time to optimize and refine the tiddlywinks, because there was not apparently no need to precipitate it at the market as quickly.

Is the result with the Juste of what the mediums of the businesses had need: Relatively fast, reliable and well-comprised tiddlywinks. No other manufacturer offers a product with the same range of device as the family SiS630 and SiS730.

Though the engineers of LOCATED count on the drivers of the defect ide of Windows, I 'm sour which specialized those can improve the total execution even more. There could also be a certain part to optimize the execution of memory as well. If you think of the comparisons of tiddlywinks of the whole the decade spent, the LOCATED one could be in a good situation. This time there is not any tiddlywinks competiting of Intel to exceed the product of LOCATED.

Segment finally the bottom of value/budget has now two chipsets different from Athlon/Duron to select, Via 's ProSavage KM133 and SiS730. I expect that the LOCATED one cheaper although better is described. With these two chipsets available, the sector of calculation of businesses is not any more according to chipsets or processors of Intel. There is much more behind him. The value of a commercial computer is increased by a processor of AMD Duron. You obtain a faster treatment unit, a faster memory and better tiddlywinks describe for the same price - isn 't which much?

The sector of house and execution-computer of office was the first of three sectors to enter by AMD, now AMD has good lucks write the segment of value. This freely leaves always only one part of the processors of AMD: Systems of work stations and waiter. That will change once AMD obtains the tiddlywinks of AMD760-MP ready to go.
