The price of current ultrabook laptop is too high

Although most of the super at the International Consumer Electronics Show (hereinafter referred to as “CES”) has attracted many fans, but most participants still want to wait until prices drop and the launch of Windows 8 and then buy the ultra-thin notebook .

Intel at CES launched the first wave of this ultra-extreme, major PC makers have to respond, launched their ultra-thin products.

Intel plans to end the price down to $ 699, which makes potential buyers even more reason to wait. In addition, potential buyers are not optimistic about the Windows 7 operating system, want to wait for Windows 8 to take advantage of the introduction of the ultra-extreme Tablet PC with similar functionality.

The use of ultra-extreme Intel notebook market planning for the new direction of development, these slim-line equipment with all-weather, long battery life and Quick Start function. Intel said that in 2012 there will be more than 75 models over most of the market, will be released later this year with Tablet PC features a number of hybrid products.

According to sources, these changes do not affect the nominal TDP of processors Intel U-Series, which will remain at 17 watts, as well as the highest value of the custom TDP, which remains at 25 watts. However, the lowest rate configurable TDP increased from 13 to 14 watts, and TDP in low power mode increased from 11 to 12.5 watts. Note that although these changes do not become critically important for casual users of systems based on Ivy Bridge, they can be a problem for manufacturers of PCs, which may have in some cases to make significant changes in the cooling system of its products.
