Computex 2003 And will have an extended physical architecture

DETAILS HAVE EMERGED of the future design of Intel’s Tejas/Pentium V processor, and of how the chip firm will present it to the world. The chip will sample internally at Intel in January 2004 and will take between four to six months to get to market. The Pentium 6 will follow a very similar schedule.

The Pentium V is likely to fly along at between 5GHz to 7GHz, have 2MB plus of level two cache, be built on a 90 nanometer process, and have a stackable design.

The processor we believe, sits in the LGA 775 pin socket, and above it is a very thin heatsink. But, according to sources close to the firm’s plans, another permeable heatsink can sit between this and another microprocessor module, giving a stackable design.

The final design of this arrangement is not set in stone.

According to this source, and the details have not been confirmed, a module sitting on top could provide 64-bit extensions.

And the source claimed, Microsoft is ready to launch a version of Windows called Elements with 64-bit extensions.

The idea seems to be that people can buy a 32-bit module, and then add in the 64-bit processor.

There are three samples of an arrangement of the Pentium V here in Taiwan this week, with a very thin processor and lots of wires and patches stuck on it, just to show proof of concept.

The Pentium V could have a front side bus speed of as much as 4000MHz, the source claimed, although this may be reserved for the next chip along, the Nehalem.

I remember reading an article about a year ago that said the limit of speed is approaching very fast using existing technology for processors. According to this article, they expect this P5 to run between 5GHz to 7GHz.

just when i thought my pc was good!!
what the point of upgrading pcs?
i will never spend money on pc parts again!!

Hehe, that is why I'm still runining an old PIII-1GHz cpu on Win98. I guess P4's will be cheap soon.

90 nM ?

isnt that bigger then what AMD is doing? 70 nm? or am i wrong? which i think i am!

You're wrong, AMD is still chugging along with the 130nm platform.

just think about how much one of those puppies is gonna cost....
compared to an AMD that is

laughs @ buddhazen
oh yes you will

you're sucked in now!
lol
