Along the new platforms (Montevina Centrino 2 and Centrino 2 vPro platforms), new dual core Penryn processors (prefixes "X", "T", "L", and "U" complement "QX", "P", "SP", "SL" and "SU". "QX" will represent the mobile Quad Core processors) - The Penryn Core 2 Duo Pxxx labeled Power Optimized Performance and the Penryn Core 2 Due Txxx labeled as performance and Core 2 SPxxxx, SLxxxx, SUxxxx, Uxxxx labeled as Small Form Factor will be launched.

You can find some tests to show the different performances between upcoming Intel Core 2 Duo T9400 and Core 2 Extreme X9100 based on Centrino 2 (Montevina) platform and current Intel Core 2 Extreme X9000 (overclocked and standard forms) and Core 2 Duo T9300 based on Santa Rosa Refresh platform.

Also, there is a first benchmark that has compared the current integrated Intel GMA X3100 graphics used in Santa Rosa Refresh platform with upcoming integrated GMA X4500 used in upcoming Centrino 2 platform.

Additionally, "the GMA X4500 Graphic Chipset supports DirectX 10 and Shader Model 4.0. There is a 100% increase over the existing GMA X3100".

Mau resultado.
O 780G que ja foi lançado há uns mesitos é superior ao GMA X3100 em 300% ou mais, o que significa que o GMA X4500 fica muito aquem do IGP da AMD.
Nada que não se tivesse ja á espera. A intel precisava de 300% de aumento de performance pelo menos para se tornar competitiva no IGP.

Intel ''Montevina'' Centrino 2 Platform Delayed by Couple of Weeks

Chip maker Intel will delay the introduction of its highly anticipated "Montevina" platform referred to as Centrino 2 due to technical and certification problems, the chipmaker said Tuesday. The initial rollout scheduled to take place after Computex and until July 14 is not going to happen. Instead, the release date has been pushed back by one month to August 2008. The problems behind this delay include the certification of the Wi-Fi wireless standard and technical issues with the Centrino 2 integrated graphics chipset, which is causing random failures. Because of that Intel will launch only the Centrino 2 CPUs and some of its chipsets on July 14th. The Centrino 2 processors will include the "T" and "X" (Extreme) models. Other parts of the new Montevina platform as well as the faulty chipsets will need to be rechecked, causing this delay to prolong to a month. "Initially what will be available on July 14 are the (Centrino 2) processors and some of the chipsets," Intel spokesperson Connie Brown said.
