Its an exciting time to be an enthusiast. The changes are coming at a breakneck pace and it's only getting better.

We were remarking the other day in IRC that not long ago were were talking triple-digit nanometers for die sizes. Pretty soon we'll be talking single digits or switch to picometers.

Maybe it's me, but the XS screenshots make it look like that sucker runs pretty hot.

Collectively known as the Westmere family of processors, parts based on the design will include a sexa-core version of the Nehalem known as the Gulftown, the mobile-oriented Arrandale GPU/CPU, a low-cost desktop GPU/CPU known as the Clarkdale, and the server-bound Clarksfield.The slide shows Clarksfield as a mobile processor. If that's going to be a server processor then what processors will be available for notebook manufacturers wanting to include capable, discrete GPUs?

It's a Yorkfield in that screenshot, not a Westmere.

It was originally a Westmere. ;) The screenshot has been changed since this news item was first posted.
