Intel Reveals Breakthrough In Transistor Technology

[Hiltonizer]

(RTTNews) - Saturday, Intel Corp. (INTC | charts | news | PowerRating) reported one of the biggest advancements in fundamental transistor design using two dramatically new materials to build the insulating walls and switching gates of its 45-nanometer transistors. The company said the new transistor technology will soon be inside the next generation Intel Core 2 Duo, Intel Core 2 Quad and Xeon families of multi-core processors. Intel also said it has five early-version products up and running -- the first of its fifteen 45nm processor products planned.

The new chip allows the company to deliver record-breaking PC, laptop and server processor speeds while reducing the amount of electrical leakage from transistors that can hamper chip and PC design, size, power consumption, noise and costs.

But really, who CHECKS the front page?!

 

[Hiltonizer]

i have hardforum.com directly in my favorites, i never see hardocp.com

I always hit up hardocp just to checkout if there are any new articles up (as in the case of the OP obviously would have helped out), if there arent then I go to the forums. I figure whats an extra 5 seconds to check out the article header?

Technically, Intel didn't make that breakthrough, IBM did, and they gave Intel and AMD access to it.
