Windows 7 More Speedy with Microsoft, Intel Collaboration

With Microsoft in collaboration with Intel, its upcoming Windows 7 OS will be more speedy as it will take advantage of the chip maker’s multithreaded and multicore processors. According to an Intel source, this result would be faster application performance.

With Microsoft and Intel working so close together, this will allow Windows 7 to identify resources that is available and then break up application processing over the Intel processors multiple chip cores and threads. This is something that Vista was unable to do.

According to PC World, Windows 7 operating system will take advantage of a feature called SMT parking; this will take advantage of Intel’s hyperthreading technology. We will now have to wait and see if we can finally have a version of Windows that does not hog up all of the system resources. We will not have to wait long, as the Windows 7 RTM is released on August 6.
