Nehalem uses an LGA775-style interface, but the total number of contact points in the socket (and on the chip) has grown by approximately 75 percent. Only the higher-end Core i7 processors will ...

The new chips will be based on the Nehalem microarchitecture, which cuts down on bottlenecks that plague its current chips. Nehalem chips are also able to execute more tasks while drawing less power.

The first year of the Intel Tick-Tock model ('Tick') refers to the new silicon process technology which increases the transistor density within a smaller existing microarchitecture. The second ...

Intel's first Nehalem chips will feature 45nm process technology and later publications will be 32nm products, with Sandy Bridge, the microarchitecture "tock" following Nehalem, appearing first on ...

Most of the Nehalem disclosures in Gelsinger's keynote, and in the subsequent technical session on Nehalem, had to do with the new microarchitecture's power management capabilities.

The new Xeons are based on Intel’s latest Nehalem microarchitecture, which improves system speed by cutting bottlenecks that plagued Intel’s earlier chips.

But not as exciting as Nehalem, which is Intel’s “dynamically scalable” new processor microarchitecture which’ll bring “dramatic performance and energy improvements” to Intel’s chips.

Nehalem chips will be manufactured using the 45-nanometer process. The company will follow up Nehalem with the Westmere microarchitecture in 2009 and Sandy Bridge in 2010, Otellini said.

A year after its launch, Intel is pushing the Nehalem microarchitecture into mainstream PCs with the release of its first Core i5 chip on Tuesday. The Core i5-750 is a quad-core processor aimed at ...

Nehalem cuts bottlenecks of Intel’s earlier Core microarchitecture to improve system speed and performance-per-watt.

Intel is targeting Nehalem-EX at high-end systems running data-intensive applications such as databases. The chip is based on the Nehalem microarchitecture, which cut data bottlenecks that plagued ...

Intel plans to provide engineering samples of its new Nehalem microarchitecture in October and will follow up with a scheduled launch of the microarchitecture in the second half of ...
