Updated! IDF Spring 2005 Day 1 - 65nm Multi-Core Demos and more

65nm Mobility
Pressler wasn't the only 65nm demo Intel had running, there was also a fully working demo of Jonah/Yonah - the upcoming 65nm dual core successor to Dothan (Pentium M). Given that the chip is up and running Windows now, a release in Q1 2006 shouldn't be too far fetched.
More information about Yonah will be presented in tomorrow's keynote.

I find it odd because the photos depict ATX, not BTX, which Intel have been pushing of late. Are they un decided as well perhaps?Viditor - Thursday, March 3, 2005 - link
"AMD's dual cores may top out at 2GHz"AMD's dual cores will START at 2.2 and 2.4 GHz...already announced. And the TDP will be 100w (there was an errant report of 110w, but that has been corrected). Also, remember that that's an AMD TDP which yields a much lower actual power level (because they apply the worst possible scenario). Expect them to run in the 70-80w range under load...

Wow I am definitely wowed by the array of all these new tech coming out...ahh I love the smell of oncoming tech...quiet some perf increases eh? Nice..AMD is not going to be sitting around quietly, I am sure there will be some massive competition now Intel has gotten over its Prescott-can-scale -o-5 GHz fiasco...solbergn - Wednesday, March 2, 2005 - link
At the end of the article, Anand says that ID and Epic will have multi-threaded gaming engines next year, but what about Quake 3 SMP? I may be insane, but I had a dual P-III 1ghz machine that I ran Quake 3 and RTCW in SMP mode by modifying a line in the .ini.Anyone tried the awesome Q3 benchmark with SMP enabled on a P-4? That could give us a preview anyways.

"While the Pentium D and the dual core Pentium EE are basically two Prescott 1M cores glued together..."I wonder what sort of glue they use

This Intel show is much more promising than the Smithfield showcase. Hopefully these new cores will counteract global warming ;-)That Truland 4S bus architecture + quad channel DDR2 support looks to be the final answer to AMD's CPU interconnect and on die memory controller. This will help the Xeon big time. It doesn't say however when Intel will launch this or how they expect it to perform in a 4-way box.

nice demo, i just don't like the chassis and that fancy effect on the stock intel cooler...kmmatney - Tuesday, March 1, 2005 - link
Its interesting that the motherboard used for all the dual core cpu's isn't BTX. At least it looks like a normal ATX board to me.bersl2 - Tuesday, March 1, 2005 - link
#8: The first series of dual-core Opterons will tentatively run at 2.2 and 2.4 GHz, at 110W maximum.Sorry to burst your bubble.

That's awesome... can't wait for all this dual core goodness to hit the market and be reasonably priced.
