Gesher (CPU architecture)

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

This article contains information about a scheduled or expected future product. It may contain preliminary or speculative information, and may not reflect the final version of the product.

Gesher is the code name for a processor that is being developed by Intel and is the planned successor to Nehalem. Intel is already into the development process for Gesher. Gesher uses the 32 nm manufacturing methods from Westmere (formerly known as Nehalem-C) and applies it to the new Gesher microarchitecture. ^[1]

Intel's plans are to introduce new microarchitectures every two years, so this processor should debut in 2010. Very little else is known about it.
