Nehalem - the core 2 quad rival and Intels future!

"Nehalem" the forth coming Intel release is one of the most anticipated product ever in the history of computers and electrinics,IT industry.This is said to be the native quadcore based on core architecture.Demos of the chip were presented at Intel Developer Forum this week.Nehalem would be running none lesser than 3.2GHz which is the top clock speed the core architecture processors havent heard of.This speedstar would feature extra shared L3 cache , obey hyperthreading technolgy and virtual core technology!
We do know that higher clock speeds often lead to heat issues.But this chip would be made out of 45nm production process and hence we can anticipate lesser heat and hence lesser power consumption.This being the case we cannot predict all these features like virtual core,l3 cache shared and ht technology can overtake present generation processors like penryn, conroe, quadcore extreme and wolfdale.We need to bite our nails until INTEL discloses the real secrets and salient features of Nehalem core!Overall it is good time for INTEL and techy people who love hardware and technology.
