Intel Atom Dual Core processor debuts
The first dual-core Atom processor from Intel has made its debut as an engineering sample that the Guru of 3D somehow got from ECS. Clocking in at 1.6GHz, the Atom 330 has two cores with independent caches, yet it draws just 8W in power consumption. The FSB remains the same at 533MHz. Intel earlier confirmed that the first dual-core Atom processor would be shipping in September. The verdict on the performance of the Atom 330 is that while it is not particularly stellar, it "should" do the job better than alternatives by Via. Windows Vista ran perfectly, with Windows XP running "pretty fast." Surfing, listening to music, and even watching a DVD are all in a day's work for this nifty processor.
