Launch of the latest AMD server chips last month, Intel will become the center of attention.
Intel plans to launch the latest generation of desktop processors on Monday. Called core i7, chips for high-end desktop and gaming market.
Put Intel ahead of rival AMD more than a few months compared to the AMD desktop is not scheduled to start until early next year.
"AMD is now not only have a chip in the competition against Intel on the desktop," said Patrick Wang, an analyst with Wedbush Morgan broker company.
And until AMD has launched its products, Intel will be the only option for consumers who want the latest chips for them, said Wang
The core i7 will be about four to six times faster than at this time, the Intel platform, says the company, and with energy efficiency is greater than ever. This is based on the production of 45 nanometer technology, which first appeared in the Xeon server chip called (aka Penryn), which debuted earlier this year.
Chips using 45-nm circuits smaller than the previous generation of 65 nm, so that faster and also allows Intel to produce more cheaply.
New Core i7 chips are designed based on the new microarchitecture called Nehalem, which includes changes in the design of large areas such as power management and memory control.
First of three quad-core Core i7 chips from Intel reintroduce "Hyperthreading" technology, the chips provide the capability of running 8 threads simultaneously in the 4 processing cores, increasing the processing power. Hyperthreading is seen in the previous Pentium 4 chip and some of the Intel Xeon processor.
I7 processor is also different from its predecessors in that it "QuickPath, a new micro-controller integrated in the memory of each microprocessor. QuickPath replace the Front Side Bus used in Xeon and Itanium platforms.
The move will increase the available bandwidth directly to the processor, reducing the time delay before the CPU can start the next instruction.
Core i7 will be one of the chips from Intel to integrate the memory controller, "said Shane Rau, PC analyst at research firm IDC," but it is something that AMD has for a while. "
Intel does not have a chance with the core i7. The company has spent millions to try and ensure defects in the chips that do not have, said the New York Times.
In the past, both Intel and AMD has to pay a high price for an error in the chips. In 1994, the Intel Pentium chip sports a small error in the calculation of floating-point, resulting in product recall.
More recently, a variety of AMD Barcelona chip, launched last year has been delayed for months after the discovery of such a defect that caused the system to lock and crash.
