Microprocessor ReportLinli Gvennapom (Linley Gwen-nap), was the
idea that the 64-bit architecture in techeniesleduyuschih six
years neizbezhnopridet replacing proce-family quarrel x86,
constituting segod-AE basis of the vast majority of desktop
systems properties. If 2002 sees tolkoogranichennoe of the
products of which are based on the architecture IA-64 - mostly
high-end PC, then another two year, Intel, apparently, will
a massive transfer of its products with 32-bit x86 chips
on the next-generation processors. But before that see the
light yet two processors based on the core
IA-32, which is scheduled for release
next few years.
If in 1999, is expected to
will Katmai - chip, which extends
Pentium II core teams set
MMX instructions 2, approximately
2000 Intel will introduce a chip of the seventh generation
Williamette. He inherit a set of commands multimedia ot Katmai
and will differ from the Deschutes with equivalent operating
frequency with 50% performance gain.
Williamette 800 MHz will initially be carried on 0.18mikronnoy
technology. With the transition to Intel 0.13-micron process
speed of the chip will increase to 1.2 GHz.
Apparently, Williamette ctanet the latest in a series of
Processors Intel, based on
instruction set x86, before
final transition to
IA-64.
Merced, the firstborn of Architecture
IA-64, aimed at previously inaccessible to the Intel server
sector enterprise, apparently, will be released in the second
half of next year with a clock speed of at least 800 MHz.
Although, according to some reports, in the second half of this
year, some partners In
