Intel Launches Power-Efficient Penryn Processors
Intel has launched its long-awaited new line of power-efficient microprocessors, code-named Penryn, designed to deliver better graphics and application performance as well as virtualization capabilities.
The processors, manufactured using a 45-nanometer process, feature smaller transistors and cut down on electricity leaks, which makes them faster and more power-efficient than earlier 65-nm processors… The most power-hungry Penryn-based systems will consume no more than 120 watts (W).
