Intel on Monday detailed plans to push its Atom processors into devices beyond just netbooks and mobile Internet devices.

Mind az AMD, mind az Intel úgy döntött, hogy csak jövőre veszi ki alaplapi chipset kínálatából a DDR2-vel kompatibilis típusokat.

Intel began sales of its high-end Core i7 desktop chips in Tokyo late Saturday night, bringing to market a series of processors that are significantly more powerful than any of the company's current desktop products.

Az NVIDIA bejelentette az első, alaplapi chipsetbe integrált professzionális GPU-ját, és egy kisméretű, asztali gépekbe szánt, belépő szintű professzionális modellt.

Az NVIDIA bejelentette, ki vásárolta meg az SLI licencét az Intel X58 chipsetű alaplapokhoz. Meg vagyunk lepve!

Az erre utaló események után a hivatalos bejelentés is napvilágot látott, mely szerint a VIA elhagyja az alaplapi lapkakészlet-piacot.

A napokban felreppent a hír, hogy az NVIDIA fontolgatja: kiszáll az alaplapi lapkakészlet üzletből. A cég cáfol, mások rácáfolnak a cáfolatra.

The chips that make up the inside of an x86-based computer are changing. The traditional roles of the processor, chipset and graphics chip are blurring as functions change and new roles are created.

The expected launch of a Nvidia chipset for Via Technologies' processor line didn't materialize at the Computex exhibition in Taipei.

For all the fanfare surrounding the launch of Intel's Centrino Atom chip package at the Intel Developer Forum in Shanghai, there was a notable shortage of new products based on the chips, apart from a few concept designs rolled out for the occasion.

Advanced Micro Devices on Wednesday said it has delayed volume shipments of its quad-core Opteron processors as it fine-tunes the chip.

Advanced Micro Devices on Monday is expected to launch the 'Spider' platform, which combines the company's next-generation quad-core processors, graphics cards and chipsets in one platform to deliver better graphics, performance-per-watt and improved high-definition video.

Samsung Electronics Co. Ltd. saw a sharp fall in operating profits during the three months from April to June due to the weak market for computer memory chips.

Samsung Electronics Co. Ltd. has developed a pair of chips that can receive and decode four mobile digital TV systems. The chips should make possible smaller portable media players and cell phones that can pick up local broadcasts around the world.

Advanced Micro Devices Inc. will continue to supply ATI graphics chips for PCs based on Intel Corp. microprocessors despite the fierce competition between the two companies, AMD's chief technology officer said in an interview.

Motherboards that use Intel Corp.'s 3-series chipsets, codenamed Bearlake, seem to be everywhere at the Computex exhibition - signalling they will soon find their way to store shelves and hardware makers around the world.

IBM Corp. is pulling out the heavy artillery in its quest to build custom chips for both telephony backbone and handheld wireless devices, announcing a processor family built with silicon-on-insulator (SOI) technology that is usually reserved for server processors.

A group of chip makers led by IBM Corp. has agreed to further their collaboration by jointly developing 32-nanometer semiconductor production technology, a sign the alliance will continue to move forward.

Samsung Electronics Co. Ltd. is putting the finishing touches on its DDR3 memory chips ahead of their commercial release later this year.

Users looking to add more DRAM (dynamic RAM) to their PCs are likely to continue to see bargains throughout May and June, as prices of the memory chips continue to crash.
