Applications that will benefit include visualization, such as complex weather modeling; math and physics, such as data intensive financial applications; and content processing, such as the encryption and decryption of communications infrastructure data.

Additional 65nm Process Will Stretch Battery Life of Mobile Devices. Intel’s high-performance 65nm (a nanometer is one-billionth of a meter) process provides both power consumption and performance benefits over Intel’s current industry-leading 90nm manufacturing process. The company’s new ultra-low power 65nm process provides Intel chip designers additional options in delivering the circuit density, performance and power consumption required by users of battery-operated devices.
