The processors generation penryn will obtain the support of expansions SSE4 and multiplier step of 0.5 X. the latter will make possible to reduce the step between models frequencies with the support of 1333 MHz system bus. However, Intel can preserve integer values there are no precise information in regard to this .
Produced on 0.045 m technical process the successors Of conroe will obtain increased to 6 mb cache in the second level; however, will additional versions with 3 mb or 2 mb cache Ridgefield will also excit. There is no other architectural update only with processors generation nehalem, whose release will start in 2008.
Associates reported that Intel has already available models processors generations penryn stepping A0, which make possible to successfully load the operating system Windows. we should note that not all engineering models processors of early stepping are characterized by operational stability. In other words, in this sense the models penryn demonstrate the advances future success.
If we consider that Intel decided to transfer the announcement processors core 2 Duo with 1333 MHz system bus for the second quarter, and the early models penryn succeeded, it is possible with the certain fraction of optimism to assign the appearance of the first 0.045 m intel processors to the third quarter of 2007. However, the forthcoming updates in the road map will for sure give more precise answer to the question about the periods anoncement of 0.045 m processors generation penryn.
