First Look At Intel Tejas & Socket 775

Posted by CowboyNeal on from the covert-ops dept.

Anonymous Indian writes "The snoops at Anandtech have unearthed some details and photos of Intel's rumored Tejas 90nm CPU which draws 150 watts of power, a 50% jump compared to Prescott. It's also got an interesting locking mechanism instead of the traditional metal clip from hell for most processors." There's not much info beyond the photos, but it's still interesting to see what lies ahead for Intel.

    150 Watts of power? What is Intel thinking?

    It's interesting because Intel processors are the future of smart space heaters. Every other processor group seems to be aiming at decreasing power usage, while Intel just throws more at it. I suppose they're running out of ideas.

    Computing Power just took on an entirely different meaning.
