Intel Says 6-Cores Not Delayed
Intel clarifies that 6-core 'Gulftown' processors not delayed from 2009 to 2010.
Yesterday we ran a report indicating that several other sites reported that Intel would be delaying the release of its 32nm 6-core Westmere-based CPU, codenamed Gulftown. Intel's Westmere codename represents the 32nm line of Nehalem micro-architecture processors. Intel today confirmed with us that the reported delay is not true, and that Gulftown has always been a 2010 product.
Some sites, including even Wikipedia, incorrectly indicate Gulftown as being a late 2009 product. Intel's public roadmap says 2010 and Intel representatives confirm that the roadmap has not changed.
Intel's first 32nm CPU line based on the Nehalem architecture will be its Westmere line, starting off with a 2-core CPU slated for Q4'09 production.
Intel says Moblin to hit 2 second boot times
Intel says Atom to be greatest thing since sliced bread
Intel says Nehalem running at "very healthy" clockspeeds
Less talk, more engineering samples plzokthx

GTA IV
(Of course I'm assuming this is still an enthusiast website)
Most high end and popular video and photo editing software do.
I need 6 gigs of ram. I have 4 and it's really been making me mad when my computer lags as it runs out of ram. 3 or less would just suck.
Most Cad Programs
Animation programs like Maya
GTA4 comes to mind.
Anyways, I'm not anticipating a sexacore configuration since quadcore works for most gamers. I say this being a workstation thing for a year or two before it trickles down to the masses.
Actually, the developers said it only takes advantage of max. 2 cores.
I would guess all video/photo/audio recording/editing software take full advantage of all the cores.
There are actually people that use their pc's for other things than surfing or word/excel.
But that game's so poor it shouldn't really count as a game. Worst investment since halo 2.
No there isn't. A game is a program too. As is the calculator, internet browser and your favorite media player.
Many New games are coming out that take advantage of extra cores and as prices keep falling quad cores are becoming more mainstream.
