Top Spec

Its that time again! Is it Friday? I think it is! Now I’ve got that of my chest what is there to talk about on the computer hardware front?

There are a number of different technologies propping up over the internet. First off we have the Atom processors created by Intel clocked between 1.33Ghz through to 1.86Ghz. The processor uses the same ISA as the Core2 processor meaning that backward compatibility is proven. The core 2 created $100bn market in 2007 alone.

The processor uses a FSB of 533MHz. considering single core processors used the similar to lower FSB this is impressive. Thinking about it, this is Intel’s smallest mobile chip.

Next we have the scrap of the computer hard disk. Sources say IBM will get rid of the old hard disk and replace this with other means. IBM state that the HD is too mechanical creating noise and most importantly heat. This will be over come with their new implementation. IBM has created the memory chip and the Hard Disk within the past so I only have good expectations. I will be explaining this in further detail over the start of next week!

Thats all for now so stay tuned for more updates on the latest hardware!
