Upcoming AMD desktop processors |
| |
This quarter AMD released only three Athlon II-branded models, dual-core 255 (3.1 GHz), triple-core 440 (3 GHz) and quad-core 635 (2.9 GHz), and two new quad-core Phenom II models - 555 and 910e. Second quarter should be much more interesting as we will see six-core Phenoms (posted earlier this month), and many new Athlon II models. [Full story] |

Core i5 Mobile CPU pages updated |
| |
Our Core i5
Mobile family was out of date. Intel released these processors on
January 7th, and I forgot to update the family at the time. I posted
data on processors listed below, so all Core i5 mobile processors are
now listed on the site.

Phenom II X6 information update |

CPU chart update |
| |
I added the last batch of more than 700 new part numbers to combined
CPU chart. The CPU chart currently has data on 5805 parts. Almost all
of microprocessors, microcontrollers, floating-point units, and
bit-slice processors, presented on the site, is now in the chart. In
the upcoming weeks I will add to the chart additional filters, such as
"Part type" (CPU, FPU, MCU, etc), "Platform (instruction set)" (8080,
x86, etc), and "Market segment" (desktop, mobile, or server) to the
chart - these should make it easier to find all parts and families
that belong to specific group, for instance, "x86 server CPU", or
"68000 desktop CPU". |

Intel Xeon E5645 - AT80614003597AC
We now have data on Core i7-980X and all Intel server-class
processors, that were released yesterday. An interesting tidbit about
the Core i7 Extreme Edition CPU. This processor is not only shipping
in top-of-the-line gaming computers, like Dell Studio XPS 9000 or
HP Pavilion Elite HPE-180t, but is also offered in
D900F
Panther mobile servers made by Eurocom Corporation.
Speaking of new server-class CPUs, AMD announced channel support
for upcoming
Opteron 6000 microprocessors. Their
press
release doesn't include any specifics on the family, but confirms
imminent release of 8- and 12-core Opteron microprocessors: "The
following partners ... will be offering next generation 8- and 12-core
systems in the coming weeks.". |

I have good news and bad news. The good news is that my son Anthony was born three days ago, on February 18. The bad news is that this great event will severely limit amount of my spare time, which means I won't be able to do as many updates as before. My main priorities will be adding new S-specs and CPUs to the site, and making changes to backend scripts with the purpose of reducing time required for site updates. Adding older CPU families, and improving the site interface will have medium priority, and everything else will be low priority.

Benchmarks" tab on many CPU pages was changed. Before it displayed numeric test results, which was pretty much useless. I added a few graphs that show which processors have similar type of performance in in different types of applications. For example, see how it looks on Core i5 650 page (select "Benchmarks" tab to see it). The graphs are not yet available for older processors (Pentium 4, Pentium D, Celeron D, etc). This is just a first cut, and, I'm sure, it'll be changed in the future. I may also remove numeric test results, as they are of no use to most visitors.

I've made two enhancements to a form on CPU ID submission page. Identification of model numbers was improved for AMD K8- and K10-based processors. Also, when you click on the "Part number" field on the submission form, it will now suggest part numbers that match filled-in CPU manufacturer, family name and model/processor number.

It's January 1st, beginning of a new year, and I thought it'd be good to reveal my plans for the CPU-World site. As usually, I'll continue to add newly released CPU families, microprocessors, S-Spec codes, and add missing ones. I will continue to add CPU-related information, such as sockets, microprocessor cores, manufacturers, and others. I will try to benchmark as many new processors as possible, and benchmark older processors as well (socket 478, socket 462, etc). I hope that CPU packages section will be finally added to the site. It's possible that power consumption and temperature charts will be added too. There will be a way to compare CPUs, S-spec numbers and CPUID data. CPU benchmark database will be partially rewritten to allow easier selection of benchmarks or insertion of benchmark data. There will be more parts and filtering options included on the CPU chart. I'm considering creating new pages for adding new AMD stepping codes and datecodes for S-Spec numbers. Well, my "To Do" list is quite long, but I hope that most of it will be done this year.
