Last year at the Intel Developer Forum (IDF), both media outlets and users were introduced to a new processor series called Cedar Mill, designed for desktop systems and utilizing 65-nanometer technology.
The world’s largest microprocessor manufacturer, Intel, has also announced the upcoming release of the Celeron D series, which is produced following the Cedar Mill solution and will also be manufactured using 65-nanometer technology.
Similar to the “Prescott” architecture based Celeron D, this new model will operate on a 533MHz Bus and support 64-bit systems. The new Celeron D processor will feature a 512KB L2 cache, which is double the cache of the current members in the Celeron D family.
Both the Celeron Cedar Mill and Pentium 4 Cedar Mill are expected to launch in the second quarter of this year, with two versions available: the Celeron D 352 (3.2GHz) and Celeron D (3.33GHz). The Pentium 4 Cedar Mill will hit the market first under the name P4 671, boasting speeds of up to 3.8GHz. Like its predecessors in the 6×1 series, the P4 671 will include Intel’s Extended SpeedStep Technology (EIST).
