Introducing the new VIA Isaiah Architecture: An entirely new x86 microarchitecture that promises to bring between two and four times the performance of our current Esther architecture within the same power envelope. Or in plain English, our new CPU design promises to deliver more punch than our current VIA C7 CPU without sucking your battery life.
The announcement of the VIA Isaiah Architecture today means that mobile and power efficient computing just took a leap to the next level. VIA has always sought to provide CPU platforms that focus on providing the best computing performance per watt, and the C7's success in the UMPC, power-efficient desktop, embedded and thin client markets stands a testament to that. So what just changed? Well, as of the middle of this year, the Isaiah Architecture will be a fully realized product, powering those same kinds of devices, using a similar amount of juice as the current VIA C7 but offering an impressive boost in performance.
Well I'm going to step aside and introduce you all to the man responsible for developing the VIA Isaiah Architecture. Mr Glenn Henry, President of Centaur Technology, the design team behind the Isaiah.
