Intel has opened up a corner of its kimono and shown a picture of the upcoming Larrabee chip. The new processor is Intel’s response to NVIDIA and AMD graphics processing chips. Larrabee will be, in its first iteration, a 32-core processor. Each core is expected to be an x86 core, and each will will be paired with a vector processing unit.
