Intel to launch another four-core processor model next month
Microprocessor Company Intel is likely to launch yet another version of their four-core processor in January.
This would be yet another attempt to stay ahead of the competition (AMD) as they aim to capture the market for next-generation processor family.
Intel is expected to launch the Core 2 Quad chip for high-end desktop PCs during the CES trade show in Las Vegas in January.
This new processor would join the already launched quad-core Xeon 5300 for servers and Core 2 Extreme QX6700 for gamers.
The company is likely to target this processor at a broader segment of mainstream users. Thought the chip would be a suitable candidate for processor-intensive, highly threaded programs.
