Ticks and ttokttakneun What is it?

Topic written by bad guy wanna get good: What is the tick and tock?

what is the tick and tock in intel’s technological advancement? thats a bit confusing. please explain in bit detail. if you know about 22nm technology then please also tell about it and does core i7 use 22nm tech.??

would they be using the name ‘atom’ instead of core now?

This is exactly a look into What is the tick and tock? which you can would be smart to resolve concerns without some help. I hope this’ll help in many ways: and then make your life significantly better. Who wish a look into What is the tick and tock? may very well be an option at some point.

Answer by Sullivan

From Wikipedia:

“Tick-Tock” is a model adopted by chip manufacturer Intel Corporation since 2007 to follow every microarchitectural change with shrinking of the process technology. Every “tick” is a shrinking of process technology of the previous microarchitecture and every “tock” is a new microarchitecture.[1] Every year, there is expected to be one tick or tock.”

To clarify, I would add that the new microarchitecture of each “tock” uses the same process technology as the previous “tick”. And each shrinking that’s done for a “tick” uses the same microarch as the previous “tock”.

No, 22 nm process won’t appear in product until next year. When it does it will use the same microarchitecture as Sandy Bridge. It’s unclear whether they’ll use a new marketing name (replacing “core i7″) or change it.. .but they’ll probably change it. The marketing names don’t necessarily get changed with every tick/tock pair; the “core i3/i5/i7″ names have lasted now through two tocks and a tick.

edit – added: Anything is possible but it’s most unlikely that they’d re-use the Atom name for the followon to core i3/i5/i7. Atom refers to a series of low-power and low-performance CPUs intended for devices like netbooks.

Have any idea much better?

Watch as I put together my new blazing fast Intel computer system.I haven’t had much time to play around with the new system yet but right now it’s overclock…
