"Qin Feng, Intel announced the release date of the new generation CPU!" Lei Jun immediately called Qin Feng when he heard the news.
"I''ve seen it!" Qin Feng''s face was dignified.
Now, with the submarine optical cable logging in at home, the communication with the other side of the ocean is more smooth.
In this case, Qin Feng naturally learned a lot of international news at the first time.
Intel announced the launch date of a new generation of CPU, Pentium 3: Turing.
Its listing date was on January 1, 1999.
In 1999, the first day of this very special year was listed.
Tulin! Intel is finally going to offer this killer mace.
The God U of that generation also really made most Chinese believe in it.
It can be said that tuladin is the reason why countless people really praise Intel. Even if many people choose to buy amd chips because of financial constraints. But you just ask them what CPU to buy?
Basically, nine times out of ten, the answer is that you don''t need money to buy Intel. If you are short of money, buy AMD.
This is already a consensus in the computer industry. This is not only the consensus of netizens, but also a consensus reached by many relevant media and even insiders. As long as you don''t need money, buy Intel.
If you need money, you should consider AMD.
Its origin is from tuladin, who completely beat all the invincible hands in the world.
At that time, tuladin completely crushed AMD and made it impossible for AMD to compete with it.
In fact, it was AMD and Intel that competed for 1GHz frequency. As a result, amd launched 1GHz speed dragon processor in advance, which made Intel lose face.
After all, Intel is the CPU boss. Therefore, Intel also later launched Pentium 3, 1.13g, but it is not the core of Turing. Because Intel always makes money first. The original Pentium 3 is not so much a Pentium 3 as a revision of Pentium 2.
In addition, in order to distinguish from the revision of Pentium 2 and avoid the sarcasm of the industry, we changed the packaging mode. Intel has tried this model of old wine in new bottles repeatedly. However, the result is due to carelessness, resulting in unqualified packaging and extremely high temperature. In addition, it is not easy to replace the radiator. If the player is not careful, the chip will be damaged.
Therefore, later Pentium launched Pentium 4 in a hurry to save face. In fact, this is the real Pentium 3. However, Intel still hasn''t got rid of its bad problems. It still wants to use the previous chip to cope with the market, but just get it out after overclocking.
As a result, it is conceivable. That is high frequency and low energy. The frequency looks very powerful. In fact, the performance is terrible.
It was blasted by AMD speed dragon.
This can only be said to be self inflicted. After all, this is not because the enemy is too strong, but because he killed himself.
After that, Intel learned from the pain, no longer squeezed toothpaste, but really took out their real next-generation processor: Pentium 3: Turing.
This is the real Pentium 3 processor architecture of Intel. Before that, it was fooling people.
Its performance is terrible. The so-called Pentium 4 chip has a frequency of 1.6g, and its performance is similar to that of 1.13g. However, the power consumption and calorific value of 1.13g are only half of those of 1.13g.
One can imagine the gap.
The final result is that the market Pentium 4, no one cares, no one bird it. The whole people are chasing tulin. As a result, it is difficult to find one in the market. Even the price increase.
The rival speeddragon Series CPU was disheartened by tulin and completely lost the limelight when it was first listed.
However, in history, tuladin was launched only after 2000.
Now it is only September 1998, which is a full year and a half ahead of schedule.
This year and a half could have been the golden development period of Godson.
Now, what?
"Qin Feng, what shall we do?" Lei Jun asked.
According to the chip information released by Intel, Godson is not a general sling, but a rolling sling, regardless of performance, power consumption, heat dissipation and all-round sling.
Between the two, let alone comparison, it is basically even compared, which makes people feel humiliated. Because tuladin shouldn''t be compared with Godson at all.
Qin Feng smiled bitterly.
"I can''t help this pure technical gap." Qin Feng smiled bitterly.
"Alas, we can really increase the frequency now. I can get 1g frequency now, but the heat is too scary. It needs a very large radiator. Moreover, the performance has not improved much! " Lei Jun said helplessly.
When your core architecture is not good enough, forcibly increase the frequency in exchange for performance improvement. In other words, the performance improvement is not proportional.
Will the player accept it?
Qin Feng thought for a long time.
"Mr. Lei, I think we can only study it as soon as possible. As for the final result, we''ll see then. " Qin Feng can only decide, "of course, the CPU performance is not as good as Intel, that''s for sure. Therefore, we concentrate on the research and development of GPU. The GPU I told you about must be developed. "
GPU, this is the display core processor. A CPU dedicated to processing image data.
This was only later. It''s too early now. I''m afraid NVIDIA has a concept and is trying to study it. Other graphics card manufacturers didn''t realize this at all.
And this is decisive.
Because when GPU comes out, the market position of graphics card is established. Because, in the future, the graphics card will no longer rely on CPU computing power. It can be said that since GPU came into the market, the performance of CPU is no longer so critical.
Of course, it doesn''t mean it doesn''t matter at all. It''s just that the CPU performance is weak, which doesn''t affect anything. Because the graphics card has its own GPU to calculate, which does not depend on the powerful computing power of the CPU.
This performance improvement is very strong. It can be said that it is no exaggeration that GPU has directly changed the world.
Of course, the consequence is that Intel has become more lazy. Core has been more than ten generations in the future. As a result, it squeezes toothpaste and improves a little every time it is updated.
This promotion is simply playing hooligans.
Of course, Intel is helpless. After all, the desktop market has begun to slump and the mobile phone market has begun to rise. But Intel is weak in this regard. This is also the reason why it is not enterprising in the desktop market.
"OK, I see." Lei Jun was also very human and soon calmed down.
Since the CPU can''t surpass in a short time, it''s better to save the country.
GPU must be developed. If they don''t develop it, they really don''t have a weapon against Intel. At that time, I''m afraid I''ll really be hanged by Intel.
