With AMD scheduled to showcase its new quad-core Opteron processors (Barcelona) at Computex Taipei 2007, Intel also plans to demonstrate its 45nm quad-core server processors (Harpertown) at the show, according to sources at server makers.
Intel will only demonstrate Harpertown-based products in its own booth, and the 45nm dual-core processor, Wolfdale-DP, will be absent from the show, added the sources.
In an update to previous reports, Barcelona-based products will be displayed in both AMD's and its server partners' booths. However, only AMD will have a live demo at its booth.
AMD will release its Barcelona processors with clock speeds ranging from 1.9-2.6GHz. However, in the initial launch, the clock speed will top out at 2.3GHz, while the 2.6GHz version will appear in the updated version, pointed out the sources.
