Technology High End

Reflecting the success of previous processors, Intel launched the latest processor family line, namely Core Intel vPro 2010. The family is represented by the Intel vPro Core I5 vPro and Intel vPro Core i7. Both processors are claimed to be able to meet the need for a computer with better performance and flexibility. Core Intel vPro are more was shown for SMEs or business class with a large scale because it has some additional features.

Vpro technology is equipped with Intel Anti-Theft version 2.0. Technology provides encryption capabilities to disable access to cryptographic keys through hardware to make the data block as a whole. Technology also has the ability to perform reactivation was held computer when the user is authorized. Fujitsu, HP, Lenovo, and Panasonic have been announced that it would use these technologies.

vPro also equipped with features Keyboard-Video-Mouse (KVM Remote Control). With these features, IT administrators can see the screen and the user has full control over the user’s computer, even when operating system is not active. Intel also provides an alarm clock feature that can turn on the computer at the time already served,

platform-based Intel Core processor 2010 with Intel vPro Q57 Express and Intel Gigabit Network Connection 82577LM for notebooks. As for desktop, Intel uses Intel 82578DN Network Connection. Processor is based on “Nehalem”. Nehalem is represented by the i7 and I5 have Intel Turbo Boost feature and Intel Hyper-Threading. Turbo Boost can automatically adjust processor speed as the workload changes. While Hyper-Threading can make a connection between some core processor so that they can process several instructions in parallel.

Advanced Micro Devices Inc. (AMD) processor chip sales estimates in the third quarter would be lower than forecast. According to the company’s of main competitor Intel Corp., the reason for decline in sales due to falling demand for notebook computers in Europe and North America.

AMD predicts, sales will decline between 1 to 4 percent of total sales in the second quarter reached 1.65 billion U.S. dollars. The decline prediction was carried out shortly after Intel announced a similar prediction. Outlook also shows the performance of other chipmakers, including Texas instruments Inc..

According to Hans Mosesmann, an analyst at Raymond James & Associates, currently AMD does not go into business servers and machines. As a result, AMD can not offset the decline in sales as consumer spending is tightened.
“After Intel, it had been predicted earlier. Having recorded a strong performance in the first half, the prospects for a similar performance record is currently very difficult,” said Mosesmann.
