Intel Centrino 2 explained

| Wednesday, April 15, 2009

The summer is the season for continuations, and Intel 's hoping to match the success of spectacular of the Centrino Duo with the last iteration of its mobile platform, Centrino 2. primarily a limit of sale, Centrino 2 (Montevina called) is employed to describe a raft of new technologies of Intel, including a handle of new processors of duet of core 2; a new handset of chips with a faster bus on before-side; a new solution of graphs with the support of the contents for high-definition and the permutable graphs; and connectivity without wire and of up to date cable.

But do you have to become exhausted and buy a laptop of Centrino 2? Which are the advantages envisaged? After the page break that we run in bottom of the new devices and what they will mean with you.

New processors: The processors launching with the new platform are built on the same architecture of 45nm Penryn which debuted earlier this year, although all the new pieces now support more it fast, bus on the before-side 1,066MHz.

Three of the processors belong to a new class of the central processing units of treatment of ideal efficiency conceived to increase the lifespan of the pile; those are indicated with a number of the part a �Pxxxx � (think for P optimized power ). The central processing units of treatment of ideal efficiency have the additional advantage to remain fresher than their power-famished counterparts, a development which should still cause smaller, thinner laptops.

Remaining processors--number of the part �Txxxx � and �Xxxxx �--give the priority to the execution. Each the six new processors and evaluation (by 1.000 units) is as follows:

* Intel dig 2 the duet P8400 (2.26GHz): $209
* Intel dig 2 the duet P8600 (2.4GHz): $241
* Intel dig 2 the duet P9500 (2.53GHz): $348
* Intel dig 2 the duet T9400 (2.53GHz): $316
* Intel dig 2 the duet T9600 (2.8GHz): $530
* Intel dig 2 X9100 extremes (3.06GHz): $851

A faster total execution: New the express tiddlywinks of Intel 45 mobiles increase the frequency of the bus on before-side with 1,066MHz, which helps all the components of the system to communicate more quickly. The point is debatable if you 're using the memory DDR2, which supplements currently outside with 800MHz. But the new handset of chips also supports the memory DDR3, which has an exit of peak higher than of preceding technologies of memory. Intel is always little laid out to measure improvements of execution, but the representatives of company promised dramatic profits execution.

More flexible graphs. One of the great developments with Centrino 2 is support of the permutable graphs. The new handset of chips allows the systems which commutate--or automatically or depend on the user--between the integrated graphs of Intel (to preserve the lifespan of the pile) and the discrete graphs (for a more powerful execution). Lenovo and Sony already promised this device in some their last models.

Also the notable one with Centrino 2 is support integrated of visual playback into high-definition, HDMI, and DisplayPort.

Increased connections network: The two options without wire available with the new support of platform the standard 802.11n, and the promises of Intel you will be able to wander until twice insofar as you could with the company the 'preceding piece of S Wi-Fi. He 's also carried balances some to start to offer the support of WiMax in autumn.

Side of cable, support of Ethernet at high speed of gigabit--who of device 's probably to call upon the users of businesses--is standard with Centrino 2.

Other sugar refineries: Centrino 2 can support 2GB of memory the Turbo one, Flash memory conceived to accelerate applications used generally. Moreover, Intel continuous to court companies by offering Centrino 2 with the vPro, which incorporates a handle of additional technologies for remote management and the configuration.

In a general way, Centrino 2 has all the seals of a blow of case. Each component of the platform--processor, tiddlywinks, graphs, without wire--saw at least modest improvements conceived to increase the execution, to decrease the power, and to add the functionality.

And while it 's too early with speaking generally, our results of preliminary test seem to support at least part of Intel 'of the complaints of S. first Centrino 2 systems to strike laboratories of One hundred have all the processors included of duet of core 2 of P-series, and while the profits of execution are modest, all showed the lifespan of the impressive pile.

We expect that Centrino 2 inherits a clearer hearth throughout the summer while we examine more of the last laptops to include the new components. The stay granted to beseech and our page of reviews of laptop while we accentuate and review much more systems established on the new platform.
