Oh Shit! Intel’s First Six-core Processors Drop
Today, Intel launched its first ever six-core processor: the Xeon 7400. While the name might not be as complex as the name Sony is giving to their new line of laptops, it certainly should be. Everything about this processor is “no joke” as it is geared towards high-end computing, like those used by the scientists working on the Large Hadron Collider.
An estimated 50-percent speed boost over its predecessor is possible as this processor peaks around 2.66GHz with 130W of power. The new Xeons are going to be the last of their kind before Intel makes the jump to the new Core i7 architecture. Things are certainly looking fast for the computing world.
