The long-awaited next generation of Intel processors has arrived. Intel announced its 22 nanometer processors, coded-named Ivy Bridge, at a press conference Monday.
We all knew Ivy Bridge would be fast, but these new processors are about 37 percent faster than Intel’s previous offerings. Intel also says the third-generation Core chips operate with 50 percent less energy than ***** Bridge, the code name for the previous generation of processors.
“[Ivy Bridge is] 20 percent better performance on multithreaded applications, two times better 3D graphics, and twice as fast media processing, compared to the previous generation,” said Intel corporate vice president Kirk Skaugen at a press conference in San Francisco.
“I’m here to say that Moore’s Law is alive and well,” Skaugen said.
