Intel revealed its latest processor, codenamed 'Jasper Forest', at the Intel Developer Forum in Beijing. This marks the first time Intel has made mention of this processor and so initial details were a bit sketchy. Intel says the processor is targeted at the embedded and storage application markets.
Intel said the new processors will be based on the Nehalem-EP architecture, the same used in Intel's recently announced Xeon 5500 series of server processors. But unlike the server platform, the Jasper Forest processor will use only two chips instead of the three used in the 5520 chipset. Intel has integrated the I/O hub onto the processor chip which means you can now have Xeon-level performance in a smaller space.
