Intel is firing a massive artillery barrage at its competition today with the release of desktop and mobile Ivy Bridge processors. Last year’s Sandy Bridge gave Intel a huge lead in the performance segment of the market, a lead that AMD has yet to overcome, but Intel isn’t ready to rest on their laurels. We felt Sandy Bridge was a revolution for mobile users when it came out last year, but here we are just over a year later getting ready for its successor. Will Ivy Bridge do to Sandy Bridge what Sandy Bridge did to Arrandale and Clarksfield? That’s what we’re here to find out.</p>

And for those of you who aren’t as concerned with code names and the competition between AMD and Intel, we’ve also got a pre-release ASUS N56VM laptop for our tests. While some of the specs won’t quite match up with the shipping product, we have enough that we can provide a detailed review of ASUS’ first Ivy Bridge laptop. Should the N56VM be on your short list of laptop upgrades? We’ll find out what makes it tick and have recommendations in our detailed preview, so read on to find out what Intel’s 3<sup>rd</sup> Generation Core i-Series brings to the computing world.</p>
