Intel will also call its highest performing processor for gamers the Intel Core2 Extreme processor. <br \/>\u00a0<br \/>These processors will be built on Intel\u2019s 65nm design and manufacturing process technology that shrinks a processor\u2019s circuitry and transistors. <\/p>\n<p>This combination aims to deliver processors that will spur more capable, stylish, silent and smaller mobile and desktop PCs while saving on electricity usage. <br \/>\u00a0<br \/>Says Eric Kim, Intel senior vice-president and chief marketing officer: \u201cWe want these processors to be the heart and soul of computers that are increasingly bringing magic to our digital lifestyles.\u201d<br \/>\u00a0<br \/>Having a common micro-architecture for the consumer, gaming, notebook and business desktop market segments is intended to make it easier for computer developers to create more efficient software applications. <br \/>\u00a0<br \/>Starting with these brands, the \u201c2\u201d will signal the arrival of a new generation of technology to the Intel Core processor line. <\/p>\n<p>In order to be consistent with current Intel Core processor naming, Intel will continue to use such terms as \u201cDuo\u201d to creatively and effectively indicate the number of processing cores per product.<\/font><\/p>\n<p \/>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Intel Core2 Duo processor is the brand name for Intel&#8217;s upcoming processor families for desktop and laptop computers that will arrive in the third quarter, the company says.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":23,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_sma_x_autopost_status":"idle","_sma_x_autopost_error":"","_sma_x_post_id":"","_sma_facebook_post_id":"","_sma_instagram_post_id":"","_sma_threads_post_id":"","_sma_x_attempts":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[17],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-548741","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-technology"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/mybroadband.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/548741"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/mybroadband.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/mybroadband.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mybroadband.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/23"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mybroadband.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=548741"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/mybroadband.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/548741\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/mybroadband.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=548741"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mybroadband.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=548741"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mybroadband.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=548741"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
