HCL's Quad Core Desktop

HCL’s new range of desktop computers contains chipmaker Intel’s latest high-tech quad-core processor. This is akin to a machine having four brains working in tandem. Needless to say, this increases the performance range of the PC several fold, something that inveterate gamers and multimedia professionals were longing for. HCL is the first to launch desktops on quad-core platform in India. The PCs are priced between Rs 40,000 and Rs 90,000. Intel claims that apart from delivering greater performance, quad-core processors will also cut power consumption by as much as 40 per cent.
