A number of Intel ULV rookies have appeared in a series of mobile processors from Intel. In short, the new representatives of the Core i3, i5 and i7 lines have become one third more compact, one third more productive and 15% more economical.
Hurray, one more step towards ultra-compact laptops.
Flipping through the specifications of processors on the official website, I managed to find only 4 new ULV processors, namely Intel Core i3-330UM , i5-430UM , i5-540UM and i7-660UM .
As you can see, they are all built on a 32-nanometer process technology, and the estimated thermal power (TDP) of all new products is only 18W. The new stones will work on the recently announced Mobile Intel 5 Series chipset .
All processors have an integrated Intel HD Graphics video system and Hyper-Threading technology on board , but everyone except i3-330UM knows about Intel Turbo Boost.
Together with the processors of the Core line, two new models from the Pentium and Celeron lines appeared - U5400 and U3400, respectively. But something tells me that they will not be found on devices so often.
The new ULV processors have already announced more than 40 models of ultra-compact laptops from different manufacturers - for example, Acer Aspire 1830 and ASUS UL30 . And further, apparently, things will only get better.
So we are waiting. Although I, for example ... wait much more for the dawn of battery technology - I have long had no complaints about processors.
* looking to the future * Why increase the packaging due to the charger, if you can charge the factory once for a couple of years of continuous use ... with the wireless modules turned on)
Bonus with a happy ending:
Good luck!
