Intel at the Saarland University’s Visual Computing Institute showed a die image of the Larrabee based chip, confirming the undergoing development of the platform. The Larrabee chips will pit against Nvidia’s GeForce and AMD’s ATI Radeon cards with x86 32 processor cores and will have its own vector math unit as well as cache and memory logic on the edges. Seemingly, this die looked the final one but when asked for a hi-res image, Intel turned it down by saying that the chips could be based on a different die when it comes out in the market. The Larrabee chips are expected in the first half of 2010.0 Comments:
