Intel ships latest Atoms
CHIPMAKER Intel has started shipping its latest Atom processors for nettops and low power desktops.
Chipzilla says that now that its Atom D425 and D525 processors are in the shops it will be curtains for the D410 and D510 CPUs already on the market.
The Atom D425 is a single core processor with a clock speed of 1.8GHz, while the D525 is a 1.8GHz dual core chip. These are basically the same chips as their predecessors except a bit faster.
The thermal design powers (TDPs) are only 10W and 13W, respectively. As for the memory controller itself, it retains the previous generation's ability to handle DDR2 667MHz and 800MHz speeds, though DDR3 support is the real improvement.
It means that up to 4GB of DDR3 memory, clocked at 800MHz, can be paired with the new models.
The Intel Atom D425 and D525 are built using 40nm fab process technology. We expect to see them used pretty soon, as OEMs have wanted DDR3 RAM capable Atom CPUs for a while. µ

Wafer schmafeer I like to chafer. Chip schmip I like to sh--. Watt schmatt I lik to squat.
@Jason Goatcher he seems the same drashek as always, so when he makes sense to you it's time to start worrying :o
@Mike
If you check the chipset (The whole freaking chipset not just the GPU) that went with the core solo like 945GM you will see it's 7W so 5.5+7 is ~ 13W.
For the solo solution
and that's with all the brdiges
if you look at the single core Atom,
and add the south bridge you will get about the same 13W but with much worse performance...
So check facts before you post...
Drashek, you were making perfect sense up until that last paragraph, and not even that last paragraph was total nonsense.
If you're a bot, you're a damn good one and I want to know your hardware specs. Also, assuming you're a bot, why not sign into an online game and claim you're a foreigner practicing your English? That would rock.
If you're human, I apologize for the last paragraph.
Mobile Chips Cost Less than $50 Retail, Often. While Desktop Can run over $1,000. Server, Maybe $3,000. People Are Given Impression that Certain Features Cost More, Not really.
Most of Process is in Ageing Chip in Vacumn Storage Locker, to DRY Any Posibility of Water anywhere inside. Wafers & Impression arn't Much in cost, like running Film thru Developer Machine at Local Store, 90% of Time Machine Is Running, Sprewing Developer & Fixative into Sewer, With NO Film Developed. Waste of Water, 1,000s' of Gallons per day per machine. Some Store have fewer than one film cassette per day developed.
Similar In Chips, Wafers Prepared, Machines ready, NO ONE Wants' $1,000 Desktop Chip, USERs OF DEKTOP ARE BEING DENIED BEST EQUIPMENT, On Laugh.
Makes little Difference if 2 Wafers or 10 Go thru Machine,MOST Of Time IS Waste Time, YOU Pay For.
ALL Chips Are worth about $50. Engineering is Computer Driven & Imprinted, Vacumn Vaporized metal between Silicone & so on, Then Wireing & Enclousure. Often NOT Even Tested ,jsut Sent Out. 5 Minutes Per Chip Labor.
All Chipperees' Screwing Public, Ripping User of Quality, Daily. With O End In Sight. Is RED House Worth More than pretty Purple One. Whether Ford or Other, Same Machie in 4 wheels ,engine etc. Truck & Car Parts Cost About Same, In Spite of Truck part Weighting 5 times As Much. Same With odels of Chips, BIG or Small, About Same In Cost of Manufacture.

@Tormented:
The 4xx and 5xx series of Atoms include integrated GPU and memory controller. So, comparing the Atom's power requirements to a Core Solo or Core Duo needs to include the difference in the Northbridge power consumption. Oh, the new Atoms have Intel-64 too.
I'm sorry that you're dumb.
Really 10W or 13W watts for low end stuff ??
Years ago intel had ULV Core Solo and Core Duo, the Core Solo U1500@1.3Ghz with 2 MB or cache consumed 5.5 W (official spec)
and the Duo one U2500@1.2Ghz was 9W .. Manufactured using the 65nm process..
This was Core Duo architecture, they wipe the floor with Atom and they are 4 years OLD... so why Can't we get the same power and performence from modern technology ? This makes no sense...
Let's not mention Core 2 ULV CPUs...
Intel does not have a 40nm manufacturing process. The processors are made in Intel's 45nm lithography.
