INTEL® CORE™2 QUAD PROCESSOR (BASED ON INTEL 45nm TECHNOLOGY)

Posted by paulusadipranata on April 18, 2008

==>[MY NEWS]<==

 

The Intel® Core™2 Quad processor is the latest in cuttingedge processor technology for the desktop PC.

Based on the new Intel® Core™ microarchitecture, the Intel Core 2 Quad processor delivers four complete execution cores within a single processor, delivering unprecedented performance and responsiveness in multi-threaded and multi-tasking business and home environments.

The unprecedented performance of the Intel Core 2 Quad processor is made possible by each of the four complete execution cores delivering the full power of Intel Core microarchitecture.

More instructions can be carried out per clock cycle, shorter and wider pipelines execute commands more quickly, and improved bus lanes move data throughout the system faster.

This quad-core processor represents Intel’s continued leadership and drive of multi-core processing and more parallel computing.

The latest versions, built on Intel’s 45nm manufacturing technology, take these benefits to a whole new level.

This new technology uses hafnium-infused Hi-k transistors, enabling even more processor performance by doubling the transistor density, improving efficiency and speed relative to the previous generation, and increasing cache size by up to 50 percent.

These new Intel Core 2 Quad processors deliver even more performance without using more energy.

Intel® 45nm Silicon Technology – Innovation That Breaks the Performance Barrier

Posted by paulusadipranata on April 18, 2008

==>INTEL® CORE™2 QUAD PROCESSOR<==

Intel® 45nm high-k metal gate silicon technology is the next-generation Intel® Core™ microarchitecture. With roughly twice the density of Intel® 65nm technology, Intel’s 45nm packs about double the number of transistors into the same silicon space. That’s more than 400 million transistors for dual-core processors and more than 800 million for quad-core. Intel’s 45nm technology enables great performance leaps, up to 50-percent larger L2 cache, and new levels of breakthrough energy efficiency.

Using a combination of new materials including hafnium-based high-k gate dielectrics and metal gates, Intel 45nm technology represents a major milestone as the industry as a whole races to reduce electrical current leakage in transistors—a growing problem for chip manufacturers as transistors get even smaller.

Taking great leaps forward in transistor design

This new transistor breakthrough allows Intel to continue delivering record-breaking PC, laptop, and server processor speeds well into the future. It also ensures that Moore’s Law—a high-tech industry axiom that transistor counts double about every two years to deliver more performance and functionality at decreasing cost—thrives well into the next decade.

Delivering the world’s first 45nm processor to the world

The first processors based on the new Intel 45nm high-k silicon technology deliver many new architectural advancements impacting hardware and software performance. Intel has also moved to 100 percent lead-free materials in our 45nm technology and is making the additional move to halogen-free products in 2008 in order to meet our environmental performance goals. Included in the first 45nm launch are new members of the Intel® Core™2 processor and Intel® Xeon® processor families.

Intel® Core™ microarchitecture

Posted by paulusadipranata on April 18, 2008

==>INTEL® CORE™2 QUAD PROCESSOR<==

Intel® Core™ microarchitecture is the foundation for new Intel® architecture-based desktop, mobile, and mainstream server multi-core processors. This state-of-the-art, multi-core optimized microarchitecture delivers a number of new and innovative features that have set new standards for energy-efficient performance.

Enabling new levels of energy-efficient performance

Intel Core microarchitecture includes new and innovative features enabling new levels of energy-efficient performance including:

Intel® Wide Dynamic Execution

First implemented in the P6 microarchitecture, Intel Wide Dynamic Execution is a combination of techniques (data flow analysis, speculative execution, out of order execution, and super scalar) that enables the processor to execute more instructions on parallel, so tasks are completed more quickly.

Intel significantly enhances this capability with Intel Wide Dynamic Execution. It enables delivery of more instructions per clock cycle to improve execution time and energy efficiency. Every execution core is 33 percent wider than previous generations, allowing each core to fetch, dispatch, execute and retire up to four full instructions simultaneously. Further efficiencies include more accurate branch prediction, deeper instruction buffers for greater execution flexibility, and additional features to reduce execution time.¹

Combined, Intel Wide Dynamic Execution enables increased instruction execution efficiency, thus increasing performance and energy efficiency.

Intel® Advanced Smart Cache

The Intel Advanced Smart Cache is a multi-core optimized cache that significantly reduces latency to frequently used data, thus improving performance and efficiency by increasing the probability that each execution core of a multi-core processor can access data from a high-performance, more efficient cache subsystem.

Intel® Smart Memory Access

Intel Smart Memory Access improves system performance by optimizing the use of the available data bandwidth from the memory subsystem and hiding the latency of memory accesses.

Intel Smart Memory Access includes an important new capability called “memory disambiguation,” which increases the efficiency of out-of-order processing by providing the execution cores with the built-in intelligence to speculatively load data for instructions that are about to execute before all previous store instructions are executed.

Intel® Advanced Digital Media Boost

Intel® Advanced Digital Media Boost is a feature that significantly improves performance when executing Intel® Streaming SIMD Extension (SSE/SSE2/SSE3) instructions.

They accelerate a broad range of applications, including video, speech and image, photo processing, encryption, financial, engineering and scientific applications. Intel Advanced Digital Media Boost feature enables these 128-bit instructions to be completely executed at a throughput rate of one per clock cycle, effectively doubling, on a per clock basis, the speed of execution for these instructions as compared to previous generations.

Enhancing user experience

Overall, Intel Core microarchitecture enables higher performance, greater energy efficiency, and more responsive multitasking for an enhanced user experience in all environments.
