"Dadi just announced Intel's first mobile Quad Core processor. It will run at 2.4GHz and be used for desktop replacement notebooks. Shipping this year"

"Lost Planet performance of Nehalem is around 50% faster than Yorkfield at the same clock speed (a big hunk of this is due to Hyper Threading):"

And they also wrote but soon after removed

"4:31PM - Cinebench R10 multi CPU bench results in a score of 45850. That's pretty freaking large (faster than the one we got to take a look at). Very interesting indeed."

4:58PM - Calpella will be Nehalem for notebooks. This will happen next year with two and four cores.

Interesting

I hope they keep this chip for the next 3-4 years. Looks like a VERY flexible chip.

5:30PM - Time to go! 30 minutes until 3 hours of nothing but Nehalem, check back soon for more updates.

This should be good.

[gallag]

I hope this means they are getting three hours alone to play with a fully functional nehelam system with good drivers and 1600mhz tri channel ddr3

Intel QX9300 is 2.54Ghz not 2.4Ghz, mine is E0 stepping

Lost planet is 50FPS faster, not 50% faster...

My QX9300 can reach 1Ghz over stock on Coolit dock, 500Mhz easy (300x10)

I will be showing performance number in all benches overclocked.

I will be showing detailed pics of Calpella

yeah but then when you move it how long it will hold ? thats the issue none the less is IMPRESSIVE

luck you have charles to play with this stuff early, we need this for our little wcg team

clock for clock nehalen got faster ipc ? and how is performance across the benches with less cache than yorks ? does it have any of the amd issues with the IMC, like cold bug?

is the triple channel memory a great advantage vs dual channel ?

[Loser777]

I think the decision to name the chip "Qx9300" could be very confusing to many... But, who wouldn't expect Intel to throw a bunch of misnomers at you.

[Charles Wirth]

I am cleared on the mobile platform for discussion, Nehalem I am not.

You would think top media sites would not make so many mistakes.

I ran a battery of benches without improved cooling, in the above screen I was really pushing hard to overheat it and failed.

That Cinebench score is pretty hard to beleive..
Dual Gainstown at 4500mhz maybe?
Think on that one for just a minute.
It does seem off the scale.

Edit: statement retracted and I will go and eat my cold crow in the other room..

I'll be at IDF the entire day tomorrow (Wednesday). Anyone else going?

[Sampsa]

Some of my pics from day 1:



Me and wafer of Nehalems



Nehalem's Turbo Mode



Intel's 1,8" X18-M SSD drive



Intel will launch 6-core Dunnington as Xeon 7400 series next month



Pat Gelsinger holding 8-core Nehalem EX wafer



Tuesday's Larrabee session was full early



Johnny Chung Lee showed how to make nice touchscreen with $50 using Wii controller, pen, IR-leds and his software

More tomorrow: Mobile Nehalem, QuakeWars Raytracing with 24 cores (4 x Dunnington), Fugger's demo.. (http://www.muropaketti.com)

[T_M]

I hope that wafer will be turned into special edition Corei7(Sampsa)'s

Took 12 guards to try and pry that out of his hands after the pic was taken.
I hear that 3 of them should fully recover.
The others they list as only "possible"

[T_M]

I hope they have some tissues handy to clean up the perspex :P

Now thats what i Call a NoteBook!!

[TheGoat Eater]

I'll call it mine if Charles lets me

[Cooper]

I imagine the size, price and weight of that "notebook".
2P server for me please.

[leomax]

Looking forward for Calpella info

[bowman]

The PCU, more transistors than the 486 CPU. Notice 'shifts control from hardware to embedded firmware'. Sounds to me like this will be awesome for overclocking and not just power saving.

IDF Fall 2008: Intel reveals more Nehalem details, announces 6-core server


Intel announced that the first Nehalem processors to be made available will be desktop processors (Core i7) and high-performance server products code-named Nehalem-EP.

Intel said it is planning to manufacture a second server derivative designed for the expandable server market ("Nehalem-EX"), as well as desktop ("Havendale" and "Lynnfield") and mobile ("Auburndale" and "Clarksfield") client versions in the second half of 2009.

All Nehalem processors will be quad-core versions initially, processing up to eight threads simultaneously, thanks to the use of a revived and updated Hyperthreading technology.

Intel’s 6-core processor code-named Dunnington will be called Xeon X7460 and is expected to become available in servers beginning next month. Intel claims that servers based on the chip already have broken performance records, including an 8-socket 48-core IBM System x3950 M2 server, which became the first platform to break the 1 million tpmC barrier on the TPC-C benchmark, Intel said.

Intel also demonstrated the company’s first mobile quad-core processor and, for the first time, the next-generation Calpella mobile platform, as well as Intel’s upcoming solid state disk drives, which will debut in 32 GB and 80 GB flavors.

More to come.

I hope that wafer will be turned into special edition Corei7(Sampsa)'s

I have it under control:



I'll manufacture couple special editions in my garage hehe

(j/k that is some Intel exec sitting in front of me.. handy way to store a wafer)

[icecpu]

any new info for the TJ max value

[Shadowmage]

I'm blogging live from IDF right now in the XS Xtreme Review section. Please check it out!

They are "faking" the score providing a Cinebench10 version with Cinema4d 11.0 Render engine and call it a usual Cinebench10 score. Pretty lame
