On October 10, Intel has officially presented its new chipset top range of systems for Socket 775 LGA: talk of the model X38 Express chipset family Bearlake that will be mainly used in combination with processors Core 2 Duo and Core 2 Quad-end high. Intel, however, continues to invest in research into solutions for entry level Core 2 Duo processors, equipped with integrated video subsystem and therefore able to balance the best performance with personal productivity applications and compact size of the system.

Moreover, in analyzing the market for video card manufacturers Intel is currently the most important in terms of number of chips placed on the video market each year, thanks to its wide range of motherboards with Intel chipset with integrated graphics. This phenomenon is even more obvious considering the spread of platforms Centrino notebook family, with the largest of its Intel chipset with integrated graphics.

During the next year, to coincide with the debut of the series of chipsets currently indicated by the code name of Eaglelake, Intel will provide a new integrated graphics subsystem for its chipset, capable of speed performance up to 3 times higher than those the GMA 3100 model currently used by various chipsets on the market. Raffaello We must in any case as currently Intel has presented GMA X3500 video chip, which is based on the new chipset G35 Bearlake family and whose architecture is presumed to be the model developed GMA X4500.



Talk GMA X4500 model, which will presumably be used in the Intel chipset G45 series. This new architecture that we will have to support API DirectX Shader 10 and the Model 10, in addition to the DisplayPort to monitor that over the next few months should start to spread in the markets. Among the various features ancillary point out also the integration of the circuitry necessary for the management of technology HDCP. Intel should present this new family of integrated chipset in the second quarter of 2008, together with the south bridge ICH10, matching estimates with the first series Nehalem processors.
