Ivy Bridge Price Specifications Overview

Ivy Bridge specifications haven't been much interesting for the CPU enthusiasts. But the line ups will be a treat for the common user. The Ivy bridge shows similar specifications to the Sandy Bridge. It shows no difference in specifications except the die shrink, TDP, base clock. The 3770K seems to be a great processor with which takes max 77W at 3.5GHz, with a higher base clock it helps it to overclock more than its previous ones. Here are the Specifications of the Ivy bridge line-up:

Model	Cores	Threads	Frequency	Turbo Frequency	L3 cache	TDP	Price	Sandy Bridge CPU / price
Core i5-3450	4	4	3.1 GHz	3.5 GHz	6 MB	77 Watt	$184	i5-2400 / $184
Core i5-3450S	4	4	2.8 GHz	3.5 GHz	6 MB	65 Watt	$184	i5-2400S / $184
Core i5-3470T	2	4	2.9 GHz	3.6 GHz	3 MB	35 Watt	$184	i5-2390T / $184
Core i5-3550	4	4	3.3 GHz	3.7 GHz	6 MB	77 Watt	$205	i5-2500 / $205
Core i5-3550S	4	4	3 GHz	3.7 GHz	6 MB	65 Watt	$205	i5-2500S / $205
Core i5-3570K	4	4	3.4 GHz	3.8 GHz	6 MB	77 Watt	$225	i5-2500K / $216
Core i5-3570T	4	4	2.3 GHz	3.3 GHz	6 MB	45 Watt	$205	i5-2500T / $205
Core i7-3770	4	8	3.4 GHz	3.9 GHz	8 MB	77 Watt	$294	i7-2600 / $294
Core i7-3770K	4	8	3.5 GHz	3.9 GHz	8 MB	77 Watt	$332	i7-2700K / $332
Core i7-3770S	4	8	3.1 GHz	3.9 GHz	8 MB	65 Watt	$294	i7-2600S / $294
Core i7-3770T	4	8	2.5 GHz	3.7 GHz	8 MB	45 Watt	$294	N/A

The release dates for the IB series is first week of April 2012. Looking closer to the line-up you can see the i7-3770T, it is the most power efficient CPU for the output that it gives, it utilizes only 45W and also goes upto 3.7GHz at turbo mode. The 3770S goes at 3.1 GHz for 65W, which will cost around 294$, it is similar to the 2600S. Now let us see the beast 3770K, it is just a perfect CPU for the price, at 3.5GHz and 4/8 it costs at 330$. This CPU has an unlock multiplier like the 2770K and can go upto 5 GHz on air if kept stable. All i7s are quad core with 8 threads. So these are pretty good line up though we don't see a drastic change from the SB. The i5s also have a T series processor the 3570T takes upto 45W of power. The 3570K is just another type of 2500K with multiplier unlocked and could replace the 2500k as the best gaming processor. The 3470T is the only processor that takes 35 W of power. The i5 processors are quad core with 4 threads and go at 180$-220$. Though its been pretty good specifications we have to wait and look at how the benchmarks go, we can see it on release day. 

Nvidia to skip 600 series and turn to 700 series

Q1 2012 will be the battle of the graphic processors, with AMD soon to launch the much anticipated 7000 series which are going to be 60% more faster than the past 6000 series GPUs. With the domination of AMD for past couple of weeks due to the leaked specifications of 7990, 7970, 7950, Nvidia is looking forward to name its new chips as 7xx.

The new GTX 780 will be twice as fast as the current GTX 580, that is 100% more faster. The benchmarks were taken at 2560X1600 resolution with AA, AF enabled on an i7-3960X CPU with Windows 7 64 bit and 297 drivers.
Note: This article has not been confirmed yet and the image is a leaked one. It could be true or even false, but this news has been spreading on the internet like wildfire.

IT Expo 2011 Pune

The 2011 IT expo is here in Pune. Me and my team visited this expo and had a great time collecting knowledge and going through the competition that is going on in the market. There were many new products that we did not know about. It is also there on tomorrow 18th Dec. Its a must to go if you are an IT enthusiast. What does it make so special to go there? I saw more than 100 stalls of new technology over there. From the Bulldozer FX series to the GTX 580s. The exhibition starts with the top Companies like Samsung, Logitech, Dell, big retailers. They helped and guided us about their companies and gave us much information. There are many seminars happening over there. For more info visit IT Expo 2011.

Create your own Programming Language

Lot of people know many programming languages, many people learn programming languages to develop apps, get a job, get to brag about how many languages they know. Did anyone thing on how to create our own programming languages? Many people aren't aware on why to develop own programming language. It helps create a group, a business which can boom by having its own programming language. See here how to create your own programming language.
I would say it will be a great idea if companies started creating their own language and their products coming out solely on different languages. If this happens then I perfectly see that it will be impossible to copy each other products. Check it out how to create it and complete your programmers dream.
You will find that you don't get Macintosh OS installed in your own PC and Windows products are really hard to be installed on Apple platforms. We can create OS from C, C++. We can create Websites with PHP, ASP. We can create small applications with VB 6 and .NET. What if someone comes out with a language which revolutionizes the computer world? Yes you can.

AMD Radeon 7970 Specifications and Benchmarks

Here are Specifications of the much awaited AMD 7000 Series Graphic Processing Units. The best thing about these 7000 series GPUs will be that they are going to be of the GTX 590, Radeon 6990 Level or even better than that. I am pretty sure the price of these would be also very much even compared to the 590/6990 ones.
Here is the Specifications:
- PCI-Express 3.0
- GPU: 2048 shader processors @ 1000MHz, 28nm TSMC
- Memory: 3GB GDDR5 (384-bit)
- Texture units: 128
- ROPs: 64
- Power consumption: 190W – 210W TDP

The price of 7970 is set at 499$. This price is good enough who want to use its processing power for five years or more.

Ivy Bridge Specifications and Overview

Intel's upcoming Ivy Bridge CPUs lineups are out here. I have been much been waiting for this as this is the new technology from Intel going towards the 22nm die shrink. Ivy bridge will have a socket compatible with Sandy Bridge which will require a BIOS update.
These are the specifications of the standard frequencies:

SKU	i7-3770K	i7-3770	i5-3570K	i5-3570	i5-3550	i5-3470	i5-3450	i5-3330
Core/Thread Count	4/8	4/8	4/4	4/4	4/4	4/4	4/4	4/4
Frequency (GHz)	3.5	3.4	3.4	3.4	3.3	3.2	3.1	3.0
Max SC Turbo (GHz)	3.9	3.9	3.8	3.8	3.7	3.6	3.5	3.2
L3 Cache	8MB	8MB	6MB	6MB	6MB	6MB	6MB	6MB
Graphics	HD 4000	HD 4000	HD 4000	HD 2500	HD 2500	HD 2500	HD 2500	HD 2500
Graphics Frequency (MHz)	650	650	650	650	650	650	650	650
Max Graphics Turbo (MHz)	1150	1150	1150	1150	1150	1100	1100	1050
Memory Support	1600MHz and 1333MHz DDR3
TDP	77W	77W	77W	77W	77W	77W	77W	77W
VT-d		X		X	X	X
TXT		X		X	X	X
AES-NI	X	X	X	X	X	X	X	X
SIPP		X		X	X	X
vPro		X		X	X	X

These CPUs pretty much look similar to the old Sandy Bridge ones. The 3770K and the 3770 have the difference of the 'K' which is an unlocked multiplier. There are in all five i5s in the list. The best thing about the Ivy Bridge is it uses 77W TPD even at 3.5GHz. That is 19% less.
So there isn't a big surprise in the lineups, but the mobile series would the ones which would be interesting to see because of the less power usage.
