Intel's Larrabee will not launch for another year or two, but additional details were shared this week on this project that will launch Intel into the discrete graphics arena. We've known this already, but Larrabee will be a many-core graphics processor with an x86 instruction set designed to compete with the graphics cards from both ATI/AMD and NVIDIA.

Larrabee will be scalable to TeraFLOPS, feature a new cache architecture and vector instruction set, and a new vector processing unit / wide SIMD, according to slides provided by Intel. When it comes to APIs, it will have full DirectX and OpenGL support along with a native C/C++ programming mode for all software renderers.

No Intel representatives have publicly commented on the Linux support for Larrabee, but we have received a few bits of information.
