A revolutionary new cpu?

Sounds promising, but will the lights dim and the temperature rise?

If the excellent work they've been doing on their server chips is anything to go by, I think you've got nothing to worry about in relation to Intel and the green agenda.

Hardly revolutionary, just an incremental advance. And definitely not destined for servers if it includes on-chip 3D and HD video.

While I suspect the server versions would be GPU-free, I wouldn't be surprised if the on-chip GPU takes less power than the horribly antiquated on-board ATI chip in our servers at work, and actually has working drivers unlike those chips.
