Intel may seek new manufacturers for Atom processors
- Middle East: Tuesday, September 04 - 2012 at 12:14
Intel may be forced to adjust its roadmap for PC-use Atom processors as the top-2 netbook vendors, Asustek Computer and Acer, plan to stop manufacturing related products, Digitimes has reported, citing industry sources. Asustek is already set to halt its Eee PC product line and officially phase out from the IT industry after completely digesting any remaining inventory, while Acer has not yet made any plans to open new netbook projects, indicating that the vendor may also plan to step out of the market. The sources pointed out that Intel's Atom N2800 and N2600 processors for netbooks and Atom D2700, D2500 and D2550 processors for nettops are expected to see their shipments drop close to 50% in the fourth quarter, and Atom N series CPU will only be adopted by Intel and a few vendors in 2013, while the Atom D will gradually be phased out of the market.
