will be specially shaved down for ultraportable notebooks, according
to the latest leaked reports. The Core 2 Duo SU9600 and Core 2 Solo
SU3500 will have core speeds of 1.6GHz and 1.4GHz respectively.
By the end of March the chip maker will intro two new CPUs, namely the
SU9600 and the SU3500, with clock frequencies of 1.6GHz and 1.4GHz,
respectively. The higher-clocked SU9600 will be priced at US$289 in
1000-unit tray quantities, while the SU3500 will become available for
about US$262. The two new processors, which will join Intel's existing
lineup, will be paired with the GS45 IGP chipset.
The two components are also characterized as part of a new
reorganization of Intel's low-power line that will split it into three
distinct categories, with a single ultra low-voltage Celeron chip as
the budget model, Core 2 Solo processors at the mid-range, and Core 2
Duo as the high end. While reasons for this shift are unclear, the
company is heavily rumored as developing a new Consumer Ultra Low
Voltage processor designed for systems between $699 and $899 that
would trigger such a shift.
