Major Intel chip upgrade coming to Netbooks - Pine Trail
Intel is set to announce the biggest makeover for its Atom processor since it was introduced back in the spring of 2008. And PC makers are ready with new Netbook models, some due before the mammoth Consumer Electronics Show in January. Intel, which is already on the record saying that the Pine Trail Atom is shipping this quarter, has made integration one its biggest themes in 2010 and beyond. Its Arrandale Core i series of processors for mainstream laptops, due by early next year, will also combine the graphics chip (GPU) with the CPU. And future generations of the Atom processor will be even more highly integrated.
Inside new Netbooks will beat Intel's latest "Pine Trail" Atom processor. This watershed design will squeeze the graphics function--previously on a separate chip--into the central processing unit, or CPU, a first for Intel. And what does that mean to consumers?

Intel i9 Gulftown First Look Review
Well, the folks over at PCLab.pl apparently aren't too concerned about the NDA on Intel's upcoming i9 Gulftown processor as they have posted a full review this morning. Results look promising but it will still be a while before you can get your hands on one.
The Intel processors currently available on the market are members of two families: Nehalem and Penryn, and all are made using the 45-nanometer process technology. The Nehalem processors are Core i7 for the LGA 1366 socket (codename: Bloomfield), Core i7 and Core i5 for the LGA1156 socket (codename: Lynnfield) as well as the laptop-dedicated Core i7 (codename: Clarksfield). Later this year and early next year, Intel plans to launch the Westmere processor family. The Westmere codename stands for all circuits, which, based on the Tick-Tock strategy, will be manufactured using the same architecture as Nehalem, but using 32 nanometer processing. The first ones to land in the stores will probably be the Clarkdale processors - dual-core systems with integrated graphics cores designed for the LGA1156 socket. With time, the Westmere family will grow in view of the advent of laptop-dedicated dual-cores with integrated graphics the Arrandale and Gulftown processors. And it is none other than the Gulftown that is the central figure of today's article.
