This week in [[Taiwan]] [[w:Intel|Intel]] and other technology companies showcased server and computer hardware with processors built using "[[w:Core 2#Penryn|Penryn]]" technology, the second generation of [[w:Multi-core (computing)|quad core]] technology that is produced with the [[w:High-k dielectric|high-k]] metal [[w:Hafnium|Hafnium]] that has come to replace [[w:halogen|halogen]] and [[w:lead|lead]] components, which are not environmentally safe.

This new [[w:45 nanometer|45 nanometer]] (45nm) process technology included features on Intel Streaming SIMD Extensions 4 ([[w:SSE4|SSE4]]) compatible with video decoding (encoding) software, "Radix 16" which increased computing efficiency, and "deep power down" technology for energy efficiency. For the SSE4 feature, this will benefit makers of high-definition and AV-media, as both [[w:HDMI|HDMI]] and [[w:1080p|1080p]] are supported.

Companies that will participate in the Taiwan Informonth exhibition next month, announced that some products with "Penryn" processors will be on the market by then. Some companies like [[w:Tyan|Tyan]] and [[w:Supermicro|Supermicro]] will provide small business solutions as well as enterprises solutions. This launch will be tied to other unveilings by the IT and AV-media industries in Taiwan.
