Intel will launch a low power version of its server processors based around a tweaked version of its Xeon chips.
Intel announced a new product in its Xeon product family, a 14-nanometer Xeon E3 processor, which the company's vice chairman Andy Bryant said was Intel's "first SoC based on a high-performance core".
Intel researchers have developed a way to make the increasingly tiny processors needed to power the impending "Internet of Things" even tinier: compress the code running on them.
"We compress the code, make it smaller, and save area and power of integrated on-die memory," Intel Labs senior reseacher Sergey Kochuguev from ZAO Intel A/O in St. Petersburg, Russia, told The Reg at Tuesday's Research@Intel shindig in San Francisco.
Intel is in danger of getting torn to shreds by Indian anti-trust watchdogs.
According to the Times of India, fair trade regulator Competition Commission has completed its investigations into global chip maker Intel's alleged abuse of its dominant position in the Indian market.
With Intel's release of Haswell, many PC enthusiasts were awaiting to hear the news if the rumored USB 3.0 bug was indeed real, and did in fact make it to production. Intel's latest CPU may indeed come with a much more robust USB 3.0 controller baked into it, but it also is broken technology. Right now, if you attach a USB 3.0 device to a Haswell system and then at some later point the OS enters S3 standby mode - while the drives are still attached - and then resume from the S2 state, errors can occur.
Intel has spent a lot of time talking about its new “Iris” graphics on upcoming Haswell parts, so much so that you could be forgiven for assuming that it would be standard. That, however, is not the case. While Iris and Iris Pro represent the best Intel has to offer, many computers, from desktops to tablets, will have to make do with Intel HD 4600.
PCs that are cooler, smaller and faster were announced by computer makers Sunday in advance of Computex, with the new machines featuring Intel's speedier fourth-generation Core processors code-named Haswell.
Asus, Cyberpower and MicroCenter announced all-in-ones, gaming laptops and desktops with Haswell, with major PC makers like Dell, Acer and others expected to follow in the coming days. Many new PCs will be on display at the Computex trade show in Taipei, which opens Tuesday.
Chip giant Intel is using the Computex show, here in Old Taipei, to launch its Haswell platform in a desperate attempt to continue having a bash at the old mobile and tablet market.
One question is why it has chosen the no-doubt very important show to launch Haswell and that’s one question still waiting for an answer.No doubt we’ll be given the opportunity to lightly grill the Intel execs about how it sees the future following the failure of its Ultrabook platform.
On June 10, 2000, Advanced Micro Devices (AMD) wanted to party—and party big. The company’s CEO, Jerry Sanders, arranged to rent out the entire San Jose Arena (now called the HP Pavilion) and then paid big bucks to bring in Faith Hill and Tim McGraw, the husband-and-wife country music superstars.
Just a month away from retirement, Intel CEO Paul Otellini has reflected on his four decades with the company during his last quarterly earnings call with analysts and reporters.
Otellini is not going out on a high note, with Intel reporting a sharp drop in profits Tuesday thanks mainly to the slumping PC market. But despite finding little success in the smartphone and tablet markets, Otellini said Intel creates opportunities for itself by staying ahead of the fast-moving tech industry, and that this will drive the company forward in the future.
For the last several months, Andy Bryant, the chairman of Intel, has been trying to put steel in the backs of the company’s employees. At meetings, he tells them that Intel must fundamentally change even though the computer chip maker still has what it takes to succeed in engineering and manufacturing.
It is an extraordinary message at a company with the fiercely confident unofficial motto, “Only the paranoid survive.” Intel now finds itself faced with a fundamental question: Can the paranoid also evolve?
