Intel to offer upgradeable processors through software, PIN code

Last year Intel started offering consumers to upgrade their Pentium G6951 "Clarkdale" through software and an exclusive code for $50. The processor that had two core 2.8 GHz and 3 MB cache memory got HyperThreading and 1 MB extra cache. It will now introduce three more models in the Sandy Bridge family with the same type of upgrading.

Intel released a controversial project back in September of last year, where it allowed consuemrs to upgrade their processors through an exclusive PIN code and software. It applied to only one model together with two specific motherboards from Intel that was designed for system builders and PC manufacturers.

It started as a test and Intel now intends to do the same with three Sandy Bridge processors. Two of the procesors are for desktops and requires an Intel DH67BL motherboard, while the last is a mobile processor, Core i3-2312M, that requires HM67 chipset. HM67 is the most common chipset for Sandy Bridge notebooks.

The not yet launched models Pentium G622, Core i3-2102 and mobile Core i3-2312M will be upgradeable to Pentium G693, Core i3-2153 and Core i3-2393M. The models will not bring anything new from Pentium G620, Core i3-2100 and Core i3-2310M but the 2 only means that they can be upgraded at a later point.

The procedure is quite simple, install Intel's software, input your PIN code, reboot and you will get a faster computer. The prices for the upgrades are not yet announced, but considering all processor are sold pretty chearp we hope it will not be that much. We also have a hard time placing who this upgrade models is intended for, but to system builders and PC manufacturers this is an option that allows consumers to get more performance from their systems when needed. A qualified guess is tht you get more performance for the money if you get a more expensive model to begin with.

When we look at the mobile processors it is a lot harder to upgrade than a desktop, and not the least to get a hold of these processors, which makes this model a lot more consumer friendly. To upgrade Core i3-2312M for 1 MB extra cache and 400 MHz in clock frequency while keeping the 35W TDP sounds like a really interesting option. The big question is if the market will embrace this, and if Intel will release more models in the future to support this function?

nadam se da je ovo sala neka.. a vidim da nije :p

Upgrade, t.j. unlock pomocu flashovanja mikrokoda... zanimljivo. Bilo bi jos bolje kad bi od Arrandale-a dobio Sandy Bridge....al to nece moci.
Upgrade sa Pentiuma na Core sa istom mikroarhitekturom moze, u sustini npr. Clarkdale Pentium G-blabla, i3 i i5 su identicni procesori, sa razlikama u hypethreadingu, turbo modu i cacheu.
Mozda bi na notebooku mogao da dobijem Turbo mod kada bi ga "upgradeovao" u i5.

A mozda bi ti crkla i naponska na matichnoj plochi na tom notebook-u

Ovo je vređanje servisera! Od sad će svaki laik moći da apgrejduje sebi komp bez ikakve pomoći. Samo pljuneš pare i možeš se hvaliti kolegama na poslu da si apgrejdovao komp.

Pa ako si serviser, baci se polako na softver, veruj mi, vise se isplati.
Pod ovim ne mislim na instaliranje softvera (piratskog ), nego na development.

HAha, zbog cega? Zbog HyperThreadinga ?

Nisam serviser, ja sam fizičar "servisiranje" mi je više kao hobi a i za džeparac Al fakat jeste da bih mogao da naučim neki progmrasmki jezik. Ovi informatičari nemaju pojma da napišu dobar softver za fizičare

 

[reb0rn]

eto hackujes to intel chudo i obogatos se remarkiranjem procesora

mada ja se nadam da ce ovo neko provaliti...

Jbg, nisu fizicari....
Za fizicare je dobar i matlab.

Not! Zapravo, Origin je dobar, eto jedan izuzetak

Sta god...bitno je da zavrsava posao.

Ali ako uneses nevalidan kod onda dobijes sledecu poruku: "This CPU will selfdestruct in 10 seconds"

Veca frekvencija zbog turbo moda i onda prc naponska

Meni BEGINER rekao da je "prc" ružna reč. Trebao si to malo skremblovati.
