Intel Focusing On 45 Nm Now

Intel was surprisingly talkative when it came to future technologies and products this year. As a result, most of the technical audience is up to date regarding the upcoming micro architecture based on the 65 nm Merom design. We discovered that all of these announcements are the top of a hot iceberg only, because the chip firm intends to deliver almost 20 new processor designs within the next eight quarters; all for the sole purpose of dominating the desktop, mobile and enterprise segments.



Intel is going to focus on its reorientation towards a platform company, but it won't be able to change the simple fact that performance decides over victory of defeat - whether you simply refer to processing speed by parallelism or clock speed, or you go for the increasingly important performance per Watt benchmark. One thing is for sure, though: The upcoming years will be all but boring.
