The transition to Intel on 32nm process technology is in full swing. At IDF manufacturer has demonstrated a prototype of a processor Clarkdale with built-in graphics core and provided an opportunity to evaluate the performance of future processors for engineering tests of the sample. According to the source, Intel is going to launch a violent activity, and in the first quarter of 2010 to release a whole heap of new processors under the brands Core I3, I5 Core and Core i7.

Processors Clarkdale with low productivity will be released under the name Core i3 and Core i5, which will vary the presence or absence of Turbo Boost. The existing plan to issue suggests that the Core i3 530 with a frequency of 2.3GHz and Core i3 540 with a frequency of 3.06GHz will hold the mass segment; their energy consumption will be 73Vt. Some will be faster processors Core i5 650 (3.2GHz) and Core i5 660 (3.33GGts) with the same power consumption, 73Vt. Last two processor technology support for Turbo Boost, which allows you to overclock a single core of these processors to 3.45GGts and 3.6GGts respectively.

Interest for fans to delve into “hardware” is updated chips Lynnfield. The new models are designed more energy efficient, their energy consumption is 82Vt, significantly below current 95Vt. Similarly, energy-efficient processors Intel Core 2 series, the new processors Lynnfield, which will be released under the name Core i5 and the Core i7, will have the suffix "S", emphasizing their low energy consumption.

Typically, reduction of energy consumption of the chip is achieved by reducing its size, but processors Lynnfield until moving to 32nm process technology, so that talk about reducing their area too early. Instead, the S-Series models, energy consumption will drop by drop clock frequencies. Processor Intel Core i5 750 with a TDP 82Vt will operate at a nominal frequency of 2.4GHz, slightly lower than the frequency of similar processor with power 95Vt equal to 2.66GHz. Further, the CPU Core i7 860 with a TDP 82Vt will vary the frequency of 2.53GHz, which is lower than the 2.8GHz, that is, the frequency of existing 95Vt model.

While there are no signs of close range in the Bloomfield phenomenon Core i7, but in the upper segment of the expected appearance of six-core processor Gulftown, which is expected to be released under the name Core i9 somewhere in the second quarter of 2010.
