Intel just confirmed the release of their high end 64-bit server processor, Itanium, which uses 667MHz FSB (front side bus).
The 667MHz bus rather than the 400MHz buses for these Itaniums will deliver over 65% greater system bandwidth than those with a 400MHz front side bus. 65% improvement will no doubt boost the server performance significantly. The figures Intel cites said 667MHz FSB allows 10.6 gigabits of data per second to go from CPU to other system components, while the 400MHz front side bus transfers 6.4 gigabits of data per second.
Well, when a new chip with breakthrough technology is released, do not expect it will come cheap !! The 1.66GHz with 9MB of cache will cost you USD$4,655 (It’s RM17,689, I have no idea why the source article put inexpensive !!) when you buy 1000 of them. The 1.66GHz with only 6MB of cache costs USD$2,194 when you buy them in quantities of one thousand.
