In the summer of 2006, Intel released their 65nm Conroe-based processors, and to say they won the hearts of many would be an understatement. It was one product-launch that Intel didnt want to hit lightly, especially since AMD were actively taking fro...
In the intro, I mentioned that Intels Core 2 Duo launch in mid-2006 succeeded in getting people excited about processors again, and its safe to say that the 45nm launch will accomplish something similar. One thing that has changed since that launch...
