Huron River Processor

Huron River Processor Description
The CPUs of the Huron River platform will be based on the Sandy Bridge architecture, in fact they are most often referred to as Mobile Sandy Bridge. Overall, Sandy Bridge should be more power efficient than the current offerings. Intel has stated that it has set itself the goal of making the notebooks of this platform able to play two Blu-ray discs on a single charge. Sandy Bridge will also have a new set of instructions called Advanced Vector Extensions - AVX (a more advanced SSE) which will noticeably boost performance.
Intel reports that the top end dual-core Huron River CPU will be about 20% faster than the current top end Arrandale. The package size of the Mobile Sandy Bridge will be about 22% smaller than that of the current 32nm Westmere generation.
The Turbo boost has also been improved and now can go beyond the designated TDP for short periods of time, it's referred to as "Turbo 2.0". Intel claims Turbo Boost 2.0 will deliver more performance and more energy efficiency than its predecessor. It will incorporate new power averaging algorithms that should enable lower energy consumption and, more importantly, make more thermal headroom for overclocking (Fud). Moreover, the new Turbo will also include the GPU core in its power sharing algorithm, helping to improve performance and power consumption.
The CPU is also supposed to be better integrated with the GPU. The GPU and CPU alongside the memory controller will be put on the same die, unlike separately as they are now with Arrandale.
