Advanced Micro Devices (AMD) will take on Intel’s dual-core desktop Smithfield processor by introducing a dual-core counter version, codenamed Toledo, in the third quarter of this year, according to market sources.

However, Intel may dominate the dual-core notebook CPU segment by introducing six versions of its dual-core Yohan processors in the first quarter of 2006, the sources said, adding that the Yonah CPUs are likely to be marketed under the X20, X30, X38 (low voltage), X40, X48 (low voltage) and X50 designations, with the first letter of the model name to be decided later.
