Two processor manufacturers Intel and AMD challenge each other in providing energy efficiency which is good for our planet.

Although Intel is now a leading producer of consumer processors, the company is not planning to give a competitor AMD a break in the topping it. Most of them already know that AMD is the best at providing energy efficiency and low power computers that also offer good performance / price. This is exactly where Intel intends to expand its market share through the release of a new family of processors, which are intended to go to the neck and neck with AMD upcoming triple Central processing Phenom main units.

Apparently, Intel plans to release in Q3 of this year a new series of processors aimed at the under-$ 100 segment. Dubbed series E5000, these processors will be built on 45nm production process and will come as a core offering dual. The company intends to replace its current E2000s, which are based on older 65nm core Allendale.

In the E5000 series will come with the FSB level of 800 MHz and L2 cache of 2MB, which is one third of which have already been released Wolfdale dual main processors. In Kingston enters will feature a TDP 65W and the level of the clock speed of 2,5 GHz. The price tag on those entering Kingston will likely be around $ 84.

In addition to the main double E5000s, Santa Clara-based chips manufacturer also plans to release a quad-core series, dubbed Q8800. As with E5000s, these quad-cores order to counter AMD triple-core Kingston enter the market for inclusion. These are entering Kingston also expected to hit retail sometime in Q3 of 2008. They will come with support for one level of FSB to 1333MHz, with 4 Mb of L2 cache and frequency of core 2.33GHz. The price for these quad-cores will be fixed around the US $ 200 thousand unit quantities.

And of these series will lack VT and TXT, which will bring them lower performance level, compared with other Intel offerings.
