Intel demonstrated its next generation Haswell microprocessor at the Intel Developer Forum (IDFf) on Tuesday, September 14, 2011.
Haswell CPU will start shipping on ultrabooks from 2013. To begin with ultrabooks will be powered by Ivy Bridge CPUs.
Like Ivy Bridge, Haswell chips will use 22 nm architecture and Intels's recently announced power-saving tri-gate 3D transistor technology.
In addition, Haswell CPUs will feature a totally redesigned cache, fused multiply add (FMA3) instruction support, and an on-chip vector coprocessor.
Haswell will offer a 20x reduction in power consumption when idling as a result of power optimization, enabling devices to run the whole day on battery, and remain on standby for upto 10 days with a single battery charge.
