Intel will cut chip prices faster than expected

Picture 1 of Intel will cut chip prices faster than expected According to Intel's announcement on June 8, the company can implement plans to reduce processor prices faster than previously expected because it has agreed on a new chip manufacturing technology.

In the past few months, the world's largest chip maker has announced a price cut on some products, partly to free up inventory, on the other hand to regain market share held by AMD. Many analysts also say that Intel will have more product discounts, especially Pentium.

Intel's move is partly due to the company adopting the new 65nm process technology, with less than 300 molecules of surface and 1 / 4th thinner than the previous technology applied to the wafer. .

Smaller chips not only save more and more energy, but also reduce the cost of production because they increase the chip space on the cut pieces of single silicon.

Intel is also trying to "pave the way" for a new line of chips based on the newly designed design - "Core" hopes to close the energy-saving gap and performance with AMD chips. The "Core" chip will replace Pentium, which has been with Intel for many years.
