VIA's QuadCore targetting ... well, everything!

While Intel and AMD target their quad core processors at high end gaming rigs only (coupled with massive cooling) VIA says that it's low power consuming QuadCore chips are suitable for mainstream desktop PCs, laptops and servers.

"The new 1.2Ghz x86 chip offers a TDP (thermal design power) of 27.5 watts, which is about 21 percent more energy-efficient than comparable chips from Intel and AMD, according to Via officials. They said the chip could be used in everything from desktop PCs, notebooks and small form-factor PCs to all-in-one PCs and mini-servers." - eweek.com
