Dell ( DELL ), H-P ( HPQ ), and other PC OEMs have pushed back the launch of Windows 8 Pro tablets running on Intel's ( INTC ) Z2760 ( Clover Trail ) Atom CPU to January. The Z2760 consumes much less power than Intel's Ivy Bridge CPUs, and is pivotal to the efforts of PC vendors to make a dent in ... Hungry to create new markets for its Atom CPU line now that tablets have wrecked netbook demand, Intel ( INTC ) is developing Atom reference designs for cheap, Internet-accessible storage appliances aimed at consumers and small businesses. Such appliances have been around for a while, largely ... By Ashraf Eassa : I do not believe that Intel ( INTC ) will be building Apple's ( AAPL ) "A" series processors anytime soon, and on the flip side, I have absolutely no reason to believe that Apple will suddenly drop its in-house CPU and SoC development efforts and switch to Intel's in-house Atom ... Intel's ( INTC +1.3% ) plans to lower CPU power draw (and thus make its chips more tablet-friendly) extend not only to its next-gen Haswell platform, but also its current Ivy Bridge family, according to CNET . Whereas Intel's most power-efficient Ivy Bridge CPUs currently have a max draw of 17W, an ... By Ashraf Eassa : I have been fairly adamant in my stance that, as great as it would be for Intel ( INTC ) bulls such as myself for Apple ( AAPL ) to adopt Intel's "Atom" products for its iPhone, it is not likely to happen within the next couple generations of the iPhone product. Apple has ... A (relatively) bullish MKM note on Intel ( INTC +2.1% ) appears to be giving a lift to the chip giant. The Street is already expecting Intel's PC CPU sales to fall 10% Y/Y in 1H13, thinks analyst Daniel Berenbaum, who believes plenty of bad news is baked in ahead of Intel's April 16 Q2 report. ... Intel's ( INTC ) next-gen Bay Trail ( Valleyview ) tablet CPU will feature four 2.1 GHz. cores and arrive in early 2014, according to leaked slides . The current Clover Trail CPU, by comparison, offers two 1.5 GHz. cores. Bay Trail will also feature an Intel HD 4000 GPU and (thanks to 22nm ... Though H-P's ( HPQ -0.2% ) 2012 legal victory over Oracle extended the shelf life of Intel's ( INTC -0.2% ) Itanium high-end server CPU line, recent moves from the chip giant show it still wants to gradually de-emphasize "Itanic" in favor of its Xeon CPUs. Intel's next Itanium platform, codenamed ... As part of Intel's ( INTC ) efforts to lower power consumption, the chip giant's Haswell CPUs will sport integrated voltage regulators , a move that could eliminate the need for as many as 7 third-party chips. That could spell trouble for ON Semi ( ONNN ), Intersil ( ISIL ), and Texas Instruments ( ... Intel's ( INTC ) is interested in developing chip architectures similar to ARM's ( ARMH ) big.LITTLE , which combines a powerful CPU core with a smaller, low-power core that can handle background tasks. Adopting such an architecture could be crucial to keeping pace with ARM-based solutions in terms ...
