Intel's latest headache : Nvidia

Posted by iftikhar ahmed

December 30, 2009

The chip giant settled with AMD. But another rival is making noise about anticompetitive behavior.

After bumping along as low as $7 a share at the beginning of the year his stock is up near $14. Several months ago Apple (AAPL) began using his graphics chipset – a group of circuits designed to work together – across nearly its entire line of Macs, giving him a very high-profile endorsement. And in the white-hot netbook segment, his Ion processors have won raves for turning underpowered laptops into HD video machines.

Problem is, both of these acclaimed Nvidia (NVDA) products might be dead in the water.
Why? Huang blames chip giant Intel (INTC). Nvidia’s graphics chipsets, which Steve Jobs liked enough to buy by the boatload, aren’t allowed to work with Intel’s latest offering, code-named “Nehalem” – and in the computer world no Intel compatibility means no mainstream future.

Nvidia’s Ion chip is designed to work alongside the chip giant’s Atom processor, but lately it’s been priced out of the market by – you guessed it – Intel.

Feeling AMD's pain
All of this has piqued the interest of the Federal Trade Commission, which is looking into whether Intel has improperly used its power in the computer chip market to choke rivals. For those who are handicapping the chances that the FTC will bring charges, Nvidia’s gripes have recently taken on new importance: Advanced Micro Devices (AMD), which had been Intel’s main critic, recently settled its antitrust complaints with Intel for a tidy sum of $1.25 billion. That leaves Nvidia to bang the anti-Intel drum.

“I’m sympathetic to what AMD had to go through over the years,” Huang says.
Intel says it’s a tough but fair competitor, and that Nvidia has caused its own problems. To wit: The two companies signed a limited patent-sharing deal five years ago, and Intel says that if Nvidia had read the fine print, it would have noticed that designs like the current Nehalem chips weren’t covered in the agreement. And the Ion dispute? Well, Intel says it just lowered prices on its Atom chipsets to stay competitive. What’s wrong with that?

Nvidia tells a different story. Executives there say they’re a victim of the same kinds of tactics that got Intel into antitrust trouble in Europe and Asia. Nvidia believes it should be authorized to make Nehalem-compatible chipsets under the 2004 agreement; it claims Intel is just getting litigious to stop a competitive threat. And with Ion, Nvidia accuses Intel of unfair pricing that locks it out of the market. Intel says Nvidia just doesn’t understand the incentives it offers customers.

(The two companies are battling in court over the chipset agreement. Intel has asked a Delaware court to clarify whether Nvidia has the right to build Nehalem chipsets, and Nvidia has countersued for breach of contract.)

The courts will ultimately decide who’s right – that is, unless Intel decides to ink a settlement with Nvidia, too. Even then, that probably won’t be the end of Intel’s legal headaches. Maybe that’s the trouble with being a giant. There’s always some kid with a slingshotgunning for you.

NZXT Beta - Unboxing and Specifications

NZXT has been putting out quite a few cases since 2003, and from budget to higher end models they likely have a case to suit just about anybody. Their mid-tower Beta case is aimed more for the budget-minded enthusiast with a retail price of just south of $50.00. When NZXT offered to send us the Beta case to evaluate, we were more than happy to accommodate them.

NZXT Beta Box

After pulling the NZXT Beta out of the box I noticed right away how light it is at just a hair over 16 lbs (7.28kg) which was a little unexpected with this being a steel case. This made me wonder about the build quality which I will speak more about later.

NZXT Beta Case

NZXT has listed the features and specifications for the Beta are as follows:

FEATURES:

Fits ATX standard motherboards and power supplies
Fits large 10.5" performance graphics cards
Expanded cooling directly cools video cards and CPU
Screwless installation for hard drives and external 5.25" drives
Black internal finish for sleek look
Meshed front panel allows for better airflow than traditional cases
Top mounted Dual USB/Audio/ESATA for convenient usage

SPECIFICATIONS

Case Type: Mid Tower
Front Panel Material: Plastic
Dimensions (W x H x D): 200 X 430 X 501 mm / 7.87" x 16.9" x 19.7"
Cooling System:

Front, 1 X 120mm Blue LED (included)
Rear: 1 X 120mm
Side: 2 x 120mm

Drive Bays: 9 Drive Bays

(4) External 5.25" Drive Bays
(5) Internal 3.5" Drive Bays

Screwless Rail Design
Material: Steel with black finish
Expansion Slots: 7
Power Supply: 500 Watt PS2 ATX 12V 2.0 (optional)
Weight: 7.28 KGS (W/O Power)
Motherboard Support: ATX, MICRO-ATX, BABY AT

What you'll find in the box besides the case is an accessory box packed neatly within the case itself.

NZXT Beta Accessory Box Inside Case

Opening it up reveals the contents comprised of HDD drive mount rails, 5.25" & 3.5" bay screwless plastic locks, a small bag of screws and a case speaker.

NZXT Beta Accessories

What you won't find in the box is a manual because it isn't included. However, a nice multilingual thank you note in the box directs you to the web for the manual via PDF download. This is pretty common now, especially with budget products and I personally don't mind NZXT and others keeping their costs low by skipping the hard copy print. Most people toss it after installation anyway. It's always a good idea to grab a copy of the manual if for nothing else than to confirm the polarity of the chassis wires for the power, reset buttons and others.

Intel Core 2 Duo E8400 / 3 GHz Processor

Intel Core 2 Duo E8400 / 3 GHz processor

This is the processor I am using day in and day out and it is by far the best piece of hardware I have ever owned. Not only does it work perfectly and stay cool, it over-clocks like no tomorrow.

I have my little E8400 running at 4.0Ghz on air-cooling which was a lot easier to set-up than I first thought it would be. I was truly amazed at just how much juice this processor could put out without seemingly batting an eye-lid. Of course you will require some pretty good cooling to pull this off, but you can get coolers like the Arctic Freezer 7 Pro or the Xigmatek HDT for around £20 which will be much better than Intel's original cooler that comes with the retail processor package.
Other processors I have owned have complained immensely when put under the pressure I put this Intel CPU under. Some of them have died; some of them
just became unstable. The E8400 though laps the pressure up, it begs for more.

I was never a fan of Intel products; some would say I was an AMD fanboy. So when I purchased this and saw how amazing it was, my opinion changed immediately. They truly are gifted engineers to create a piece of hardware that can get me excited and happy about a product so much that I come here and write a review about it.
The only problem I had with this processor was monitoring the temperatures. It seems to say the temperatures are much higher than they are in reality. For some reason there seems to be a lot of confusion surrounding the temperature probes this chip uses. Now I never did find out if it was my processor, or the software I was using, it doesn't seem to have affected the lifespan of the processor so I am happy.

I will probably never sell this processor, even when I upgrade my computer. I will likely just hide it in a draw in some bubble wrap, so in the future I will find it and be reminded of the good old days. I have no idea where technology is heading now, but when I change this processor to a new one I am sure it will not make its way into my heart like this E8400 did.
I am using this processor with an Abit IP-35E motherboard which is considered a budget board but works superbly with this processor. I am also using a Xigmatek HDT-S1283 to cool the processor which works great too, although the size of it can be a problem in some cases.

So if you are looking for a processor and this one is in your budget, consider it. I know there are Quad Core processors and other such fancy equipment now, but if you are looking for something to love rather than something to use and abuse, the E8400 should be at the top of your list.

Intel Pentium Dual Core E5200 / 2.5 GHz processor

We are now in 21st century and most interesting changes for this period are in computer and mobile phone industries. Life is moving very fast and there is no scope for traditional thinking. So we are getting unexpected technology now days. We have some popular brands in computer technology and they are still getting good response from overall market.
***
In this category we have some good dual core processors and they are still very popular with good processing speed and low price. Sometimes ago we got Pentium4 models from Intel and they were long run processors in the line. Celeron series processors are still popular in low budget category. The time is changing very fast and multicore processors are getting
more popularity due to its performance and speed. We cant ignore latest product in dualcore category as they are mandatory for latest applications.
If we have a look on some applications like commonly use Adobe Photoshop, which is now available with CS4, it require atleast 2GHz processor with 2GB RAM. But the reallity is that we cant get such a good performance with 2GHz processor and even 2 GB RAM also.
So If we use latest versions of applications then we definitely need some fast speed and multicore processors.
***
Here I am going to discuss about a budget processor from Intel and it is still getting good response with its fast speed performance and low price features. This processor, Intel Pentium Dual Core E5200 GHz has some latest features which may be as per your choice, like its new 45nm technology and low poer consumption with about 65 W.
***
The new technology with 45 nm is most important feature for this processor as it may be a good choice for hot climatic reasons. Due to this feature, this processor generates very less heat and the problem of computer crash due to high temperature doesn't happen with it. High temperature is a main problem in Asian countries, so this processor can be a good budget choice for these countries.
***
Next important features are its fast clock speed with almost 2.5 GHz and front side bus speed of about 800 MHz. One more feature that is important is its 2 MB of L2 cache size.
Now have a look on above features and its performance. The 2,5 GHz speed is good enough for any regular applications with Windows Vista operating system of Macintosh Leopard latest version. 2 GHz and more speed processors with multicore processors are good for this purpose.
This processor also has more than 2 GHz clock speed and 2 processing cores. The next feature of front side data bus speed also require for high speed data transfer. We are getting here 800 MHz of data speed and this is s still very popular for any processor and RAM. If we have same speed RAM with 800 MHz speed than we will get best performance with this processor.
L2 cache performs well to provide smooth running speed with temporary data storage and 2 MB speed is good but not best for multicore processors. But for Windows Vista operating system, atleast 2 MB is necessary.
***
Processor is a perfect solution for almost all regular applications and games, for Microsoft office, internet access; Photoshop's all versions and almost all regular games. If we have a good combination with 4 GB of DDR2 RAM with 800 MHz of speed, then we will get superb performance will almost all regular applications and some advanced versions also. It will perform extremely good with Adobe Photoshop CS3 and even with CS4, excellent performance with Autodesk AutoCad 2D application and all regular applications.
For good performance with 3D application, this processor can be a better choice if you have good graphics card installed. We cant get adequate performance even with good quad core processors also without having proper graphics card. So this processor is a good budget choice for some 3D applications also with proper combination of graphics memory. It performs an average performace with Google Sketchup and 3ds max with regular graphics memory. If we have good graphics memory like nvidia quadro then it will performs extremely good.
So have a fun with this for your routine work with high speed performerswithout putting so much of pressure on your pocket. Recommended.

Intel CORE 2 DUO are new generation completely redesigned in 65nm while the D series are updates of old generations and its 90nm. core 2 will make less heat which give a little advantage in performance already because of the 65nm. core 2 use less voltage which mean the quality of the circuit is better and make less heat. they incorporates more technologies like EIST and other good stuff i dont remember. core 2 integrated more cache in the cpu wich greatly improve ther performance.Intel Processor

core 2 E6600 and up are all better than the D series. dont look the speed in Ghz. its just misleading. the lower speed new generation design is more powerfull than the older one.
they just out perform anything at the moment (that includes the AMD AM2 Athlon64 and Athlon FX series)

If you are building a new computer. IF you have money take the core 2 extreme but E6600 and e6700 are already very good.
take a nvidia video card like 7600gt, or 7900gt, 7900gtx or 7950gt(x).

if you build a pc, use ASUS for best performance and reliability. They are the world leading software and hardware computer builders. Very enovative and design in each of their components compared to their competitors. For best performant and inovative motherborad look at the boards that are colored in black with either the latest nidivia or intel chipset. if you are a gamer i think you will take nvidia, but both are good. Those black boards offer the best features and new technologies like Dolby ditial HD audio, Hyperpath (increase memory efficiency), AI booster or AI gear (instantaneousy overclocking without restarting pc or going in the bios), etc. Asus give tones of free softwares which are expensive enough if you buy it yourself.
