DDR3-800DDR3-1600GainX4 9850PRO SCORE1321373%3%HOME SCORE1251314%3%OVERALL SCORE1291344%3%In broad terms, we acknowledge that Intel Core 2 Extreme QX9770 benefits from using faster memory in more cases than AMD Phenom X4 9850. In other words, QX9770 ...
Performance on the QX9770 was exemplary, easily the fastest CPU or system I have ever tested with the exception being the dual QX9775 SkullTrail system which is faster, but of course that is with two CPUs that are virtually identical to the single QX97...
Abstract: but it also ups the stock core speed by 200Mhz to 3.2Ghz, cranks up the FSB from 1333Mhz to a screaming 1600Mhz, and for good measure slaps on another 4MB of on die cache to keep all cores fed properly.
Abstract: Intels QX9770 is the one, currently available, quadcore CPU running with the highest default clock. We checked Intels flagship and compared it with other processors. Intel Core 2 Extreme QX9770 [Source: view picture gallery]The QX9770 is running at...
To be frank, theres not really much to say because this puppy is a monster, but one that comes dripped in bling for a high price. With Intel dominating the high end it can charge precisely what it wants for its "enthusiast" Extreme Edition parts. "Ent...
While we recommended the QX9650, we could not do so with the QX9770. Of course, it is a good CPU, but for 200MHz more, Intel wants to get $500/€360 more out of your pocket, and this is just too much. Meanwhile, some vendors are going for workstation...
Alright the verdict then. Again, performance of this processor is jaw-breaking sweet, really really sweet. I so wish that todays games would already support multi core processing and threading. Its just not the case yet, and I stated this before, I ...
Both new platforms from Intel and AMD can come close to revealing performance potential of DDR2-800 memory and its faster modifications to this or that degree. The 400 MHz FSB on the Intel Core 2 Extreme QX9770 / Intel X48 platform lifts the usual res...
Abstract: AS MENTIONED a few times here, Intel is continuing its high-end domination with the second round of 45 nm Penryn parts, both running at 3.2 GHz off fast FSB1600 - first on biggie workstations, then on the high end PCs. These fancy chips are worth mor...
