Intel Announces 22nm Ivy Bridge Processors!

Intel Corporation today introduced the quad-core 3rd generation Intel Core processor family, delivering dramatic visual and performance computing gains for gamers, media enthusiasts and mainstream users alike. Available now in powerful, high-end desktop, laptop and sleek all-in-one (AIO) designs, the new processors are the first chips in the world made using Intels 22-nanometer (nm) 3-D tri-Gate transistor technology. The combination of Intels cutting-edge 3-D tri-gate transistor technology and architectural enhancements help make possible up to double the 3-D graphics and HD media processing performance compared with Intels previous generation of chips. As a result of the stunning, built-in visual performance, all the things people love to do on their PCs from creating and editing videos and photos, surfing the Web, watching HD movies or playing mainstream games are quicker, crisper and more life-like. With as much as 20 percent microprocessor performance improvements and new technologies to speed the flow of data to and from the chips, the new processors further extend Intels overall performance leadership.
