N550 Intel – The Core 2 Duo Atom Notebooks Has Launched
Intel prepares to launch dual-core microprocessors for low-cost, portable size, notebooks. One model would be the Atom N550 processor with two cores and four threads of processing native with a frequency of 1.5 GHz would be made available in the third quarter.
The Atom N550 have 1 Mbyte second level cache and a TDP of 8.5 watts, including the consumption of the Intel GMA 3150 integrated graphics with a 200 MHz core content consumption, only two watts above the limit for Atom N475 1.83 GHz, with simple micro kernel would also be marketed this year in line with the second generation of Atom.
The Atom N550 DDR3 bear and her two 1.5 GHz cores and four threads processing willingly increase in power and possibilities of the notebooks, particularly in multitasking, said Intel VP, Mooly Eden.
Benchmarking tests in multimedia and gaming have proven that the X6800 can lead the best AMD processor by up to 36% in performance.
The new chips are also smaller and less expensive to produce than Intel's Pentium D900 series, and they are much smaller than the Athlon 64 X2s despite packing more transistors. The smaller die and greater amount of manufacturing facilities creates more pricing flexibility for Intel than AMD.
The Core 2 Duo technology also allows for compatibility to existing systems and creates versatility.
One physical desktop can be turned into several virtual systems (all running different applications and functioning systems). As an example: an individual can play a game while an FTP server is executed and a Web server is operated on another system. Meanwhile, at the same time, a database can be worked on.
Another important feature is the security platform the Core 2 Duo chips provide. Before the release of the Core 2 Duo processors, only business PCs had Trusted Platform Module (TPM) protection built in to the system.
Now, with the Core 2 Duo, all PCs have TPM. Within the hardware, all passwords, logons and personal data are protected from hackers, spyware and identity thieves
