New gaming P4 processor
by Hector Cortez

Wednesday, September 17, 2003

Intel announced that they will introduce a new Pentium 4 microprocessor aimed at gamers.

Intel representatives have today announced that they will introduce a new Pentium 4 microprocessor aimed directly at the PC video game market. Scheduled to arrive within the next two months the ‘Pentium 4 Extreme Edition’ will run at clock speeds of 3.2 GHz and have four times the cache memory of the fastest current Pentium 4.

Speaking at the company’s twice yearly developer forum at the San Jose McEnery Convention Center there was disappointingly little information on the new ‘Prescott’ chip, known to be the company’s first desktop chip to utilize their next-generation 90-nanometer manufacturing process.

Officials did announce though that a 64-bit Itanium chip with a multiple processor core, code-named Tanglewood, would be revealed after 2005.
