It has been 1 year & 3 months since sandy & ivy bridge came to market. Tech-gurus have managed to motivate consumers by allowing integration of Nvidia thus providing best performance when working across your device. Lets make it clear that top firms like Microsoft, & Apple have had and always made it on higher pedestal from the fact that engineering ivy & sandy wasn't a spare to unfold. Last year at world-wide-developers conference (wwdc) apple company unveiled both 13 and 15 inch MacBook pro all capacitance displaying ivy bridge in control, come to Microsoft, it's first PC, surface tablet survived round one with it also maintaining ivy processor on-board. Of-course other PC firms like Lenovo showcased the same but if i was to ask, will the incoming haswell processor be the next F1 engine to turn request for other companies to follow soot? I bet no......whatever am about to analyse should be taken with a clean, pinch of salt. technical- wise, ivy bridge processor has shown great interest to PC manufacturing firms. Take the case of execution be of great topic here. Ivy bridge, though not taking order of execution into consideration, it's to my opinion that, ivy still maintains a stable record in execution that haswell won't be holding if granted an additional 2 years. Analysts have argued that haswell will rather be sailing hot prior & after it's sale but afterwords maintain dormancy after 4-5 months of release. Features packed with haswell are quite liquiditive, ease the pain of less uphold of battery power, excellent data transfer with both front & back buses but won't satisfy it's consumers when it comes to real back-up of stability especially on complex operating systems . You wanna know why haswell's a passing cloud? check on these two principals i've down broken for you.
Out-of-order execution.
a
processor executes instructions in an order governed by the
availability of input data, rather than by their original order in a
program. It's a mind blowing innovation, easy & somehow reliable when viewed from shallow angles but doesn't this alter system's developers pattern of formality? am assuming if complex operating systems like MS windows & OSX (x-versions) are to be directly layered on haswell processor then target firms developing these stand-alones' will have to layhands on a clean 1 billion hefty package to re-programme different layout of data transmission that may not favor the smooth rendering of haswell's program execution. Pointing on both ivy and sandy bridge, haswell emerges as complex processor that may not comply with hardwares' compatibility of standards. With 22nm on both old & the yet unveiled 4th generation processor, questions still revolve as to whether out-of-order execution serves haswell a knight of Camelot.
Desktops and server stations chip-sets maintains a C1-C4 power state design.
C1-C4 are not tangible materials as many of you would think but rather, CPU / package sleep states that are governed by internal 3D-trigates that calculate transmissions of these CPU packages. Initially, both sandy & ivy bridge clogged the Q5-Q8 chipsets that are with no doubt chip-sets with right fitting instruction. Mobile devices clogged the QHM87 - QHM86 inbuilt chipsets that gave normal threshold lining of power consumption when entering standby/sleep mode. Today we're hinted to haswell, the 4th generation processor but do industries really want to unfold what was termed old & incapable with matters concerning power balance? It is a big YES that haswell will make us proud by mobilizing resources which will soon cut down heavy guzzling of power but what of C1-C4 chipsets? it won't change anything!
Commentary:- Well, it's a battle for which series of processor gets in the consumer cycle. Intel hasn't failed yet but the huddle ahead makes no hive for it to delay further. The 4th generation processor will make progressions if only, matters concerning executions & chip-sets remuneration are taken via a live lens.
