Socket 1156 Motherboard Upgrade Needed
Different CPU cooler Needed (in most cases)
Its siblings are even faster.
Idering its performance surpasses pricier CPUs from AMD (and approaches Intel Core i7 chips that cost hundreds more)
The Core i5 is a groundbreaking CPU for builders and upgraders on a budget.
Excellent performance, great overclocking potential and an aggressive price make the Core i5 750 the best mainstream processors we’ve ever tested. Don’t even consider anything else....

Socket 1156 Motherboard Upgrade Needed, Different CPU cooler Needed (in most cases)
Through testing the i5-750, you will easily find out that this processor coupled with an affordable P55 motherboard would be an excellent upgrade for almost everyone other than the small niche percentage needed serious processing power. Even at the t...
When Nehalem launched, we received processors that were more powerful than anything we used before, and the brand-new architecture was a lot of fun to experiment with. But as I said before, there were a few reasons why people either chose to go with C...
So, the new platform has been launched. Is it successful? Yes, more than somewhat. If Core i7 for LGA1366 hadnt spoiled the triumph, we could have compared this situation with the transition from NetBurst to Core 2: when new Mid-End processors were f...
To end with, Id like to say that there are still a couple of subjects left to be dealt with when talking about Core i5; for instance the power consumption and the in-game performance difference. Well be seeing a lot of new LGA1156-based products in t...
Abstract: Looking back, quad-core processors have had quite the run already. Intel's first quad-core CPU, the Core 2 Extreme QX6700 was released almost three years ago, with the much more popular Q6600 following up months later at a rather steep $850. As you may...
Abstract: Much of what made Core i7-920 such a popular processor was its overclockability. With very little effort, you could clock the 2.66GHz Core i7-920 higher than a $1,000 Core i7-975 Extreme. Likewise, the Core i5-750 is also responsive to higher reference clock frequencies..
No HyperThreading, Requires New LGA 1156 Motherboard
In nearly all of our benchmarks today, the Intel Core i5-750 outperformed the AMD Phenom II X4 965 and the Intel Core 2 Quad Q9450. In many tests, it even matched the Core i7-920. Needless to say, the BX80605I5750 kit earns top marks in performance. Th...
on INTEL’s Lynnfield If there were any doubts or initial skepticism of Lynnfield’s performance, clearly those doubts are erased today! Both Hyper and non-Hyperthreaded versions of Lynnfield are super strong performers when it comes to task intensive P...
