QUOTE said:Intel may be poised to announce its 22nm "Ivy Bridge" Core processors on May 4, with improved, DirectX 11-capable graphics. Meanwhile, model numbers and power consumption details for the chipmaker's upcoming, 32nm "Cedar Trail" Atoms have been leaked by the AnandTech website.
News outlets including CNBC, ZDNet, and VentureBeat have reported receiving invitations to a May 4 press conference to be held by Intel. The chipmaker reportedly has promised "its most significant technology announcement of the year."
While there's no word on exactly what the press conference concerns -- and some new development could come out of left field -- Intel is most likely to discuss its progress in making computer chips smaller (and, hence, cheaper and more economical on power). While most of the company's offerings still have circuitry that's 45 nanometers apart, 32nm devices are also in production, while 22nm and 14nm versions have been promised.
