Intel Corp, the world's largest semiconductor maker, unveiled new processors on Tuesday that boost computer speed and use less electricity, putting pressure on its rival Advanced Micro Devices Inc.
Company executives introduced 20 new products, including microprocessors made with the most-advanced production technology, at the Intel Developer Forum in Beijing, Santa
Clara, California-based Intel said.
Intel uses its twice-a-year developer conferences to stir up interest among personal-computer makers for new chips.
Today's event, the first time it is being held in China, highlights the country's importance to Intel after the company said last month it would invest $2.5 billion to build its first chip-making plant in the nation.
In the US today, Intel may report its first sales increase in five quarters after the company gained back market share from Advanced Micro, according to the average analyst estimate.
