Intel Launches “Ivy Bridge” Processors

Intel has unveiled its Ivy Bridge family of processors, the first to feature what it describes as a “3D transistor”.

The innovation allows the new processors to offer more computational power while using less energy, Intel said.

The initial release includes 13 quad-core processors, most of which will be targeted at desktop computers, with further dual core processors, suitable for ultra books to be announced “later this spring,” the firm said, as BBC Stated.
