- Nintendo Game Cube [PAL] - The GameCube
internals essentially consist of just two main chips - the IBM "Gekko" CPU, and
the "Flipper" co-processor. Gekko is a pretty much standard G3 PowerPC chip,
running at a respectable 485MHz. Whilst this pales to today's 2.4GHz Pentium 4 rigs, this
is only about 50% behind the Xbox's 733MHz Pentium III, and PowerPC chips tend to give
much better performance-per-MHz. The chip is manufactured using IBM's 0.18 micron Copper
Wire Technology.
- Redesigned Celerons - Intel plans to release 1.7HGz and
1.8GHz Celerons for desktop computers next Wednesday, according to sources. Some new
PCs containing the chip will appear next week, but most major PC manufacturers will unfurl
budget computers containing the chips for the consumer and corporate markets the following
week. That's when a chipset with integrated graphics comes out, which will eliminate the
need for a separate graphics chip.
