SAN FRANCISCO: Intel, the world’s biggest chip maker, introduced a version of its Xeon processor for servers five months ahead of schedule to combat market share losses to Advanced Micro Devices.
The chip, previously referred to as «Tulsa» by the company, is designed for computers that run corporate networks and Web sites and use four or more processors. It offers twice the performance of its predecessor, and tops Advanced Micro’s Opteron chip in some tests, said Tom Kilroy, co- head of Intel’s business computer division.
