DETAILS HAVE EMERGED of the future design of Intel's Tejas/Pentium V
processor, and of how the chip firm will present it to the world. The chip
will sample internally at Intel in January 2004 and will take between four
to six months to get to market. The Pentium 6 will follow a very similar
schedule. The Pentium V is likely to fly along at between 5GHz to 7GHz, have
2MB plus of level two cache, be built on a 90 nanometer process, and have a
stackable design.

The processor we believe, sits in the LGA 775 pin socket, and above it is a
very thin heatsink. But, according to sources close to the firm's plans,
another permeable heatsink can sit between this and another microprocessor
module, giving a stackable design. The final design of this arrangement is
not set in stone. According to this source, and the details have not been
confirmed, a module sitting on top could provide 64-bit extensions.

And the source claimed, Microsoft is ready to launch a version of Windows
called Elements with 64-bit extensions. The idea seems to be that people can
buy a 32-bit module, and then add in the 64-bit processor. There are three
samples of an arrangement of the Pentium V here in Taiwan this week, with a
very thin processor and lots of wires and patches stuck on it, just to show
proof of concept.

The Pentium V could have a front side bus speed of as much as 4000MHz, the
source claimed, although this may be reserved for the next chip along, the
Nehalem.
