Boston, MA 10/11/2013 (wallstreetpr) – Intel Corporation (NASDAQ:INTC)’s new Celeron and Pentium processors, which are based on the Haswell architecture and are made for budget laptops, will soon be available. The company has started shipping these processors, according to one of the reports. Celeron chips are designed to be used in low cost chrome books with the operating system of Google Chrome.
Celeron and Pentium are lower versions of the core 4th generation processors which are used for the expensive Ultra books and laptops. To fulfill the needs of different price category laptops, the company is offering a wide range of chips. The company will try to sell its chips that are based on core architecture. The chip maker said in June that both the chips will be based on Atom tablets chips’ architecture, which is called Bay Trail. Celeron and Pentium chips are more popular on one hand, while on the other hand, Haswell is ahead in terms of performance.
Intel’s new offering includes three dual core Pentium and three dual core Celeron processors. Compared to Core processors, the chips will have inferior graphic quality, but will have 2 MB of cache, as they are powered with older and slower integrated graphic processors. Some significant features are missing from these chips by Intel Corporation. These features are required to enhance performance and includes multithreading where 2 threads can run together on a single core of CPU.
Intel discussed plans to make new chips earlier this week. These chips were planned to focus on automobile entertainment systems, medical equipment, and other devices. The company, along with other technological companies, is planning to bring in “Internet of things”, which is a facility through which almost everything can be connected to the internet. Over the next few years, this new trend will boost up the demand of software and new electronics.
