Intel Kills “Tick-Tock”
I've been really disappointed in Intel's desktop offerings. At the 300$ high end (quad core i7) desktop price point we have been at 4 cores for years. I would really like an option for more slower cores at that price point.<p>I guess I kind of get why. Might be a socket compatibility and cost issue, the allocation of die space to a GPU, but it would nice to see some movement. Also probably zero demand outside of software developers, but I have to wonder if it is kind of chicken and egg problem.<p>It's actually kind of funny if I recall on desktops more of the die is GPU than CPU.
