Intel will integrated Memory Controller on Chip?

AMD soon will releasing new processor with codename Barcelona, the issued told that Barcelona will more fast from Intel Core™ series. It makes Intel so worried for new launch from the rival AMD.

But now Intel has some great news. Intel announced upcoming cpu which will have up to 8-cores with an on die memory controller, AMD has put the chip integrated on their current processors.Intel also plans to build graphics circuitry to some Nehalem chips.
Pat Gelsinger, an Intel senior vice president and general manager of its digital enterprise group, said customers will be able to choose Nehalem chips that have anywhere from one processor core single core to eight cores. Each core will execute two sets of instructions, known as threads, at the same time. Adding multithread technology makes it possible for an eight chip to perform up to 16 cores at the same time.
Nehalem was designed to exploit a new Intel manufacturing technology that can create circuitry with features measured at 45 nm.
The new chip will be offered in core variations, from one core up to eight total on one die. Intel have plans on using Nehalem as their a cpu to dominate the processor market.
Since the Core 2 Duo was released about a year ago, Intel have turned the market from AMD who controlling the desktop and server markets before. The cpu wars are just heating up. Intel has announced price cuts on their processor soon to be released revised Core 2 cpus, not to mention Penryn looming around the corner. Let see thie final of Nehalem that we all expected, but it will ready not so fast. We (ccnsumers) just waiting for the next upcoming battles beetwen AMD and Intel. Will AMD get their position again? or Intel will always on top position??

Internet Explorer 7 beta email is Grum worm in disguise

As I was working on my PC yesterday I received a number of odd emails from “admin@microsoft.com” inviting me to download Internet Explorer 7. I would never expect Microsoft to promote itself in this way, so I immediately suspected the emails were some kind of spam or a worm. Today Sophos has issued a warning about this very email: anyone who clicks on the embedded image contained in the email will download a file called ie7.0.exe which is infected by the W32/Grum-A worm.

“Worms like this are only succeeding in spreading because so many people have still not learnt to be suspicious of unsolicited emails, even if they claim to come from well-known companies like Microsoft,” said Graham Cluley, senior technology consultant for Sophos.

“The problem is that to the casual observer the email looks genuine, and the image displayed looks near-identical to the imagery that Microsoft is using on its website to promote Internet Explorer 7.0.”

The Grum worm is an appender virus which infects executable files referenced by Run keys in the Windows Registry. When run it copies itself to \winlogon.exe and makes changes to the Registry. It also edits the HOSTS file, injecting a thread into system.dll and attempts to patch the system files ntdll.dll and kernel32.dll.

What always amazes me about these malicious email attacks is the massive scale on which they take place – in the space of just a few hours I received three of these emails to different email addresses that I use, and several friends also reported receiving the same email.

Beyond always running an integrated security package to protect your computer from viruses, spyware and spam, it’s also good practice to avoid clicking on links in emails.

Keep in mind that companies like Microsoft would never use SPAM email to promote their products. And even emails coming from friends could have been generated by viruses.

nVIDIA MCP73

nVidia produced again the chipset for motherboard based processor Intel this 2007, with code MCP73. This Chipset was present with the solution single chip that has been integrated core graphic. This Chipset will be present in two variants, first is MCP73P that had the support fsb 1333mhz and MCP73PV that only support fsb through to 1066mhz then. However had the possibility for the attendance of the third variant, that the Chipset doesnt have core graphic integrated. The support memory for the two variants chipset only reached DDR2 - 667. MCP73 also did not have the support for SLI technology, but will continue to be provided by one PciExpress 16x that enabled the user to be able to upgrade the graphic solution for getting more powerfull.

The solution core graphic from nVidia usually offered the performance that was higher compared to Intel core graphic integrated, but Intel had the superiority on the side timing. The possibility nVidia will use core G70 low end to core graphic integrated. Chipset MCP73 this will be expected to be present this coming June 2007
