Intel announces dual-core Atom, chains it to 945C chipset

By Joel Hruska | Published: August 20, 2008 - 07:15PM CT

It looks like we'll be seing Intel's new dual-core Atom 330 on the market sooner rather than later. The chip will launch in September accompanied by a refreshed D945GCLF2 motherboard, and is targeted at entry-level computer users, users in emerging markets, PC enthusiasts who want a basic home PC, and customized point-of-sale terminals.

Atom 330 is expected to be a 1.6GHz part with HyperThreading support on each processor, for a total of four virtual cores, as far as the OS is concerned. Total on-die L2 cache is 1MB (512K per processor), and the chip runs on the same 533MHz bus as the N/270. As far as projected performance, Atom 330 should be significantly faster than the 230 in any application that's capable of taking advantage of the chip's multiple cores. The desktop iteration of the platform could definitely use the boost; the single-core Atom 230 lagged well behind the VIA Nano when we benchmarked the two against each other.

So maybe this is what they are talking about??? I didn't know about it either til i did some research...

@PhiPhi

Actually yes it does. There are netbooks out there that do not come standard with GPS, Bluetooth, HSDPA, and a touchscreen. There are netbooks out there with 400Mhz procs...

Super awesome comment though...it had so much.....substance.

I would use it to print off pictures of dirt. LOTS of dirt...and pictures.

mmm...dirt

Granted the people buying this wouldn't care, but that thing has to cost a fortune just to keep powered! You probably pay about a dollar per minute in electricity. Cheaper to go to the theater...but life must be nice for those rich bastards.

okay, the first two giveaways, i definately wanted. this one i want slightly less, but i am interested nevertheless. i like random one of a kind stuff....so there...
