Intel 45nm Fab Process Launched And Penryn Preview

Posted by ryuzaki0 on Saturday January 27, 2007 @05:05AM from the new-and-improved dept.

NinjaKicks writes "Intel has decided to make public details of their new 45nm manufacturing process and also has broken news that next-gen Penryn core processors are running various versions of Windows and Vista successfully. Penryn will offer a host of core tweaks over Conroe, larger cache sizes, and SSE4 support. Also, although clock speeds will be increased, processors based on Penryn should fall within the same thermal power range as Conroe. Word is Penryn will also be compatible with some of the existing motherboards on the market while others will need either a BIOS update or perhaps other board-level changes."

It's not that I couldn't optimize my code, and it's not that I wouldn't love to optimize my code. It's just the most companies don't want to pay for it.

I have encountered the same problem regarding good translations. I could do them, and I'd love to do them, but no-one in my country would pay me their worth.
