INTEL TO PUSH BROADWELL INTO FANLESS TABLETS THINNER THAN THE IPAD

Laptops and tablets should get longer battery life and better performance with Intel's fifth-generation Core chip family, code-named Broadwell, due to go into devices by the end of the year.


While raising performance to beat Haswell chips, Intel has managed to reduce the heat generated by Broadwell, allowing it to go into fanless tablets that are less than 9 millimeters thick. The reduction also helps lower the power drawn by chips and results in better battery life,

Broadwell offers better graphics performance by using a next-generation graphics core, and also is designed for "voice usages,"
