With AMD switching focus and Intel's Mobile Pentium III soon to be superseded by the Pentium 4, firms face difficult choices over which notebook platform to invest in next.
Advanced Micro Devices is set to unveil a pair of server chips, continuing its fledgling effort to become a fixture in the server market.
Delivering a counterpunch to rival Advanced Micro Devices and its new 1GHz Athlon 4 chip, Intel will launch five new mobile Pentium III chips this July, sources said.
Intel has begun selling programming tools that let developers create software that supports 64-bit x86 chips, an important step in making the new generation of processors useful.
Results of benchmark tests are in on the new Athlon XP processor, and the winner of the performance crown is unclear.
AMD, Infineon and United Microelectronics are to work together to develop manufacturing processes that allow even more microelements to be included in chips.
Advanced Micro Devices' "Hammer" processor will contain up to about 100 million transistors, according to sources.
With a few strong years of market share gains, CTO Phil Hester says AMD will move deeper into servers, PCs and phones.
Chipmaker Advanced Micro Devices said Thursday that it expects the next major public update for the Linux operating system to include support for the company's x86-64 technology--the basis for its next generation of processors, known as the Hammer family.
Advanced Micro Devices has pushed out the release of its highly anticipated Hammer chip for desktops by almost a quarter, and plans to delay the release of another Athlon chip.
Advanced Micro Devices is set to unveil a pair of server chips, continuing its fledgling effort to become a fixture in the server market.
AMD's new range of Athlon 64s introduces no brand-new features, but consolidates and rationalises the chip-maker's high-end desktop options, while making it cheaper to build the fastest systems.
Hoping to counter a perception that its processors are slower than those from rival Intel, Advanced Micro Devices is moving away from branding its chips based on megahertz.
The AMD Athlon(tm) XP processor 2800+ gets the seal of approval from the creators of Unreal Tournament 2003, an advanced PC game.
It's as fast as we imagined, but we wish AMD's new dual-core chip played better with other computer parts out of the gate.
