Santa Clara (CA) - Intel today gave yet another glimpse of the capability of its soon-to-be-launched Core microarchitecture. While the processor will launch at 2.93 GHz, Intel shows the CPU already running at significantly higher speeds. Perhaps most interesting is the chip's lower than expected power consumption - which may give Intel enough headroom to break the 4 GHz barrier.
