A sneak-peek on Intel’s Atom Z2760

As we inch closer to the launch of the new Windows OS, Intel let us in on the things that we can expect from the Atom Z2760, which is one of the processors that will power the upcoming Windows 8 tablets.

In a nutshell, the Intel Z2760 aka Clover Trail is a 32nm 1.8GHz dual-core SoC with four threads which is specifically made for Windows 8 tablets. Some of its key features (according to Intel) are its incredible power-efficiency and full x86 backwards compatibility. Here’s a short clip to shed more light about the new processor’s other features.

Of course all of these things should be taken lightly as we’re all yet to try a Clover Trail-powered device, but it’ll be interesting to see how this dual-core SoC will fare against the NVidia Tegra3 and Qualcomm’s S4.
