SAN JOSE, Calif. - Less than a week after the launch, Intel Corp. said Friday it's recalling some of its latest chip sets after the discovery of a manufacturing flaw that could cause computers to crash or fail to boot.
Most of the problem chips were still in the hands of computer and motherboard manufacturers, said Bill Calder, an Intel spokesman.
"The good news is we think almost none of the impacted product — or very little — has reached the end customer because we caught it early and have been working with our customers to replace all the lots with non-affected product," he said.
On Monday, Intel launched the chip sets, formerly code-named Grantsdale and Alderwood, touting them as "among the most significant PC platform changes in a decade," according to a news release issued at the time.
The 915 G/P and 925X chip sets, as they're officially called, coordinate communication between the computer's microprocessor and the rest of the system. The latest models integrate high-quality audio, video and a faster data highway.
Calder said the problem arose because a thin film applied to one of the chips during manufacturing was not removed. It was discovered by one of Intel's customers, though he did not know whether it was a PC or motherboard maker.
"We're working with them to replace the defective products," he said, adding that only some lots are affected by the flaw and Intel has a tracking system to identify where the problem chips were shipped.
Citing the "quiet period" before Intel's earnings, Calder also declined to specify how many units must be returned or the financial impact of the problem. Intel intends to publish its earnings release on July 13.
Shares of Intel, the world's largest semiconductor company, fell 17 cents to close at $27.78 Friday on the Nasdaq Stock Market. |
Funny, I thought everyone said Intel's stuff was less likely to have issues.

Yes but unlike AMD, they actually caught it before it reached customer-end.

Not at all, quite the contrary. I'm not an intel fan boi, mere speculation and the facts are being presented at the table. Intel f****d up, they cleaned up quickly. Period.

lol just cant get over the fact that amd > intel can you? Fact is intel made the crappy chip not amd, so saying what amd would have done is retarded because we dont know what they would have done because they didnt make the s****y chip.

No. Instead they made multiple s****y chips and kept them on market for years.

so we are back to what happened years ago and doesnt matter anymore vs what happened very recently, wtg, but ill take the company that used to make a s****y product and didnt recall them but doesnt anymore over the company that does make the s****y product.

They did not make a s****y chip. The chip is fine. they had a problem during MANUFACTURING, i.e a problem not related to the chip, but to the machine spitting em out by the millions.
The chip is fine, just one batch of em has problems.
AMD is inherently flawed and unstable. Intel is not..
You loose

Could you explain this in a bit more detail? AMD and Intel use different architectures. AMD runs at a lower frequency but runs hotter. Neither is more inherently stable than the other.
Is your argument that AMD is less stable and flawed because it runs hotter?

theres no damn difference
Face it, Intel is better than AMD on all accounts except price, and one would expect to pay more to get more anyway.
The day AMD surpasses Intel as the more stable, better chip is the day that Intel dies as a company.

I have had 3 amd machines in the past few years.
800mhz
256ram
voodoo 5
abit mobo
600mhz
126ram
voodoo 3
aOpen MK33 mobo
They ran EQ for a few years and both have high uptimes they both of them even had uptimes of 1 months without being restarted.
None of them ever crashed.
I still have the 600mhz one and it would still be running if I had not taken parts off of it.
Right now I have
a AMD Athlon XP 1700+
640mb DDR ram
geforce 4 mx 420
s****y mobo
Never has crashed, never had overheating issues
Highest uptime was like 2 weeks.
So You guys who talk shit about AMD being s****y in every way obviously don't have a clue.
My next machine will be AMD and after that and after that and so on and so fourth till I die.

They did not make a s****y chip. The chip is fine. they had a problem during MANUFACTURING, i.e a problem not related to the chip, but to the machine spitting em out by the millions.
The chip is fine, just one batch of em has problems.
AMD is inherently flawed and unstable. Intel is not..

I hope you're trying to be funny. And it's not even that funny..since that's a display error most likely. It'd be funny if this was a thread bashing M$'s OS, but it's not.
