heard Intel plans to introduce the Atom D525 desktop processor sometime later this quarter, this new dual-core chip will have a 1.8GHz frequency and support for both DDR2 and DDR3.
Atom D510 is a dual core with 1.66GHz frequency that is shipping for a quarter now and already in Q2 2010 Intel plans a new 1.80GHz Atom D525.
The news is that the D525 now supports both DDR2 and DDR3 memory, something that OEMs wanted, and apart of the 140 MHz speed jump the rest of the spec looks quite similar. The old Atom D510 has 13W TDP and the new 1.8GHz clocked D525 has the same TDP, 13W.
