Intel enters the world of SoCs

[cobito]

I was reading this news and while I was reading it there was something that didn't add up to me since I didn't understand why Intel would start making ARM boards. Until I saw that it mounts a SoC with x86 architecture.

I had no idea that it had entered the world of SoCs. It has called its product Quark (a name with some logic after adopting Atom for its low-power micros).

It seems that all this was announced in mid-September and I can't find much technical information.

Anyway, it's not that it's an excessively interesting product with the segment dominated by ARM but it has seemed quite curious to me.

It's interesting because it's X86, there's a ton of software compatible with this instruction set. From what I understand, it's about the same power as a P3 at the same speed, consuming a ridiculous amount. For us it's absurd to use this machine today, but for the market it's aimed at, a known architecture with very refined tools is a big advantage.

Think about the number of devices that are sold with processors not just ARM, but MIPS. Routers, cars, even refrigerators... and a very well-trodden instruction set with very efficient compilers.

finally I can have the treasure hunt in the fridge and the washing machine????

[kynes]

Well, that's not it. Packo, you know what I mean

[packosoft]

Jajaja, I already know man, it's a joke but you'll see that if it becomes popular, it won't be long before there are things like this

Candy Crush on the fridge door while you think about what you fancy… Preparing yourself for the madness... :osvaisacagar:

That has existed for 10 years.

@Kernel1.0:

That's been around for 10 years.

you take everything literally :ffu:
I can finally have photoshop installed in the dishwasher!!!!

I don't think a SoC can run Photoshop :troll:

I want an oven with a 3D printer built in, that makes me some dream cakes

Salu2!

Maybe not CS6, but maybe CS6 xD

Cheers!

I don't know how they would bake those cakes, eh? Maybe a bit hard

I think Intel is late...

Apart from the fact that the ARM architecture already has a lot of software, not as much, but it is starting to take off with force. Its architecture seems to me to be much more modern and efficient than X86, so I think they will remain in the background in the area of ultra mobility.

Maybe I'm wrong.

Who takes in too much, holds too little... but I don't know, Intel seems to have very long arms because it gives to everything.
