Abstract: Perhaps you were expecting the next generation of Intel processors to come in a different package; maybe you were hoping for eight cores or something equally huge and were disappointed to see a quad-core clocked at a generous but not extraordinary 3.2G...
Abstract: Because the Core i7 isnt just a "Penryn" Core 2 Duo with some L3 and an integrated memory controller, the present review focuses primarily on measuring how well Nehalems performance scales in multithreaded workloads as compared to Penryn. If Intel hi...
The Key features of the new CPUs include the return of Intel's famous HyperThreading technology, meaning that the CPUs can work on 8 threads at the same time, double that of the Core 2 Quad CPUs that were the top of the line CPU in the previous generat...
Extremely Stable, Runs Exceptionally cool for an Extreme Edition Processor, Blisteringly fast, OnDie Memory Controller, Excellent Overclocking Potential (Stay Tuned)
Yet another motherboard upgrade (sigh....), Price is still expensive, Rather focused group of users that can take full advantage of it.
Intel's latest Extreme Edition processor release is not your usual bump in clock speed and a new number name tag. The new Nehalem technology is nothing less than a giant leap forward for Intel when there is no real competition in sight. You usually w...
Abstract: New Architecture with tricky settings You may have wondered why we did not pop up with the Core i7 review yesterday, but be assured we are testing it intensively. While the 45nm Core 2 Duos were just a evolutionary step, Nehalem is a new architecture...
Abstract: Yesterday Hugo gave us an in-depth analysis of what lies at the heart of Intels new CPUs, which will be hitting high street shelves in just a few short weeks. Of course, that was all very interesting but no-ones going to buy a CPU based on jus...
Unlike the Core 2 Quads, which still consisted of two dual-core CPUs, the Core i7 is a native quad-core processor. On the whole, the new processors are more efficient, although the system does draw more power at the platform level than the previous ge...
Requires an expensive new motherboard; chipset needs three memory sticks for maximum efficiency.
Thanks to an expensive new motherboard requirement, Intels new Core i7 desktop processors will remain enthusiast and professional-level parts until more affordable complementary hardware comes out later next year. Speed never comes cheap, however, and...
There is no doubt in our minds that the Core i7 is a worthy successor of what was one of Intel’s greatest processor series yet. Already the Core i7 has proven to be extremely powerful, as it easily put away the Core 2 Quad Q9650 in almost every test w...

The Core i7-965 Extreme is, by far, the fastest processor weve ever tested, and it seems clear the Core i7 architecture brings with it a general performance increase over the 45nm Core 2 processors it succeeds. Weve seen that increase in everyday des...
