Arrandale HD graphics able to overclock three times faster

Intel’s Arrandale 32nm CPU along with 45nm graphics core is surely a technology to boast about. Known as HD graphics turbo boost technology which form the part of Intel’s HD graphics integrated on these CPUs will be able to overclock graphics chip, it’s working are quite similar to Turbo boost of the CPU. Nehalem architecture has a basic CPU clock speed. As some CPU overclock one or more cores, 2.26Ghz which is only possible on the core i5 640UM.

Arrandale HD graphics turbo boosts from the default 166MHz to 500MHz whenever required.

Three Arrandale 32nm to hit the market on 3rd January

Intel has in mind to launch 3 processors based on Arrandale Core i5 and Core i7 next year in the month of January. The cheapest of all Core i5 520M to have two cores and four threads at a base frequency of 2.4GHz which will support Turbo Mode and can run even faster. It will have 3MB of cache and to be retailed at $225.
While the second is Core i5 540M with two cores, four threads, supporting the Turbo Mode. It features 3MB of L2 cache, a 2.53GHz frequency to be retailed for $257.

While the last is Core i7 620M which has two cores and four thread. This one features 4MB of cache and is clocked at a base frequency of 2.66GHz. This one supports Turbo Mode. To be retailed for $332 in quantities of 1,000,
All the chips have TDP ratings (including the graphics core) ending at 35W.

Intel to bring out Arrandale P4500 mobile Celeron next year

Intel is planning to release it’s first Arrandale-based mobile Celeron in Q2 2010. Penryn-based fastest Celeron is expected to be unveiled on January 17th 2010 for $86. T3300, the fastest mobile Celeron runs at 2.0GHz clock speed; has two cores; two threads, 1MB of cache and FSB 800MHz.It supports the Montevina platform.

P4500 is the Celeron to be launched in Q2 and is a 32nm CPU with two cores and two threads. It runs at 1.86GHz clock speed. It also comes with 2MB of cache. Although it supports Hyperthreading and Turbo but they have been disabled due to pricing issues.

Broadcom to develop an ARM-cortex A9 CPU

Broadcom, popular maker of computer chips has announced recently that they are working to make their own ARM cortex A9 processor. Right now, they have not said where this chip will be used, but we expect it to be used in Smartbooks: netbooks based on non-x86 platform.

A single core Cortex A9 is capable of delivering twice the performance of current crop of smartphones. When talked into the context of smartbooks, it can have upto 4 cores(!), making multitasking smooth and enjoyable experience

Clarksfield 45nm quad-core and Arrandale 32nm dual-core now 45nm graphics Core i7 says Intel

Now its just 45nm graphics Core i7. Yes, the Clarksfield 45nm quad-core and Arrandale 32nm dual-core is called with 45nm graphics Core i7, says the Intel. It will surely create a loads of mess and confusion in the mobile market, as some of the Core i7 parts will have four cores and some only two. [...]
