Intel plans to launch a highly-anticipated new Grantsdale chip that would improve the graphic and sound of PCs, allow quicker access to peripherals and memory, as well as give desktop PCs the ability to run a wireless data network.
Having those features built into the core components of a computer could be essential to Intel's strategy as it tries to turn the PC into the heart of home entertainment.
Intel plans to sell Grantsdale chips for $30 or $40, no more than the prior generation of chip sets. But the extra features offered could steer shoppers away from PCs built with chips from rival Advanced Micro Devices Inc.
