Intel on Monday is expected to launch its latest mobile platform, Centrino 2 , which will deliver speedier performance and faster wireless connectivity to laptops. After multiple refreshes, the new platform is Intel's first major Centrino upgrade after its predecessor was launched in 2003. The new platform will deliver better performance on laptops with faster, more power-efficient Core 2 Duo chips running between 2.26GHz and 3.06GHz.\n<\/p>\n

\n

The platform will include Penryn chips manufactured using the 45-nanometer process, with three of the new processors running at 25 watts for better power-efficiency compared to 35 watts in earlier Centrino notebook processors, Ong wrote. A big Centrino 2 advantage is improved graphics, said Nathan Brookwood, principal analyst at Insight 64. The new GM45 integrated graphics card supports DirectX 10 to handle 3D graphics and high-definition content. It also is capable of off-loading the processor by taking on heavier graphics loads. <\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
