A community portal about Intel Corporation with blogs, videos, and photos. According to Wikipedia.org: Intel Corporation is the world's largest semiconductor company and the leading manufacturer of the x86 series of microprocessors, the processor in IBM PC -compatible personal computers. Founded in 1968 as Int egrated El ectronics Corporation and based in Santa Clara, California, USA, Intel also makes motherboard chipsets, network cards and ICs, flash memory, embedded processors, and other devices related to communications and computing. Founded by semiconductor pioneers Robert Noyce and Gordon Moore, Intel combines advanced chip design capability with a leading-edge manufacturing capability. Originally known primarily to engineers and technologists, Intel's successful "Intel Inside" advertising campaign of the 1990s made it and its Pentium processor household names.
Intel has launched its six-core Dunnington server microprocessors. The new microprocessors are part of the Xeon 7400 family which are available in four-core and six-core versions designed for systems with four or more processors. The new processors deliver up to 50% better performance and consume 10% less power compared to the previous line of Xeon CPUs. The new processors include a 16MB of shared L3 cache which is also a key factor in the processors’ performance aside from the their...
