Yet another motherboard upgrade (sigh....)
Price is still expensive
Rather focused group of users that can take full advantage of it.
Pricey. Requires new motherboard.
Requires an expensive new motherboard
Chipset needs three memory sticks for maximum efficiency.
Expensive $999.00 MSRP
A new X58 based motherboard will be required New power efficient DDR3 memory will likely be required
Requires new motherboard socket and chipset
Won’t allow some older high-speed memory to run at full speed
Requires three or six memory DIMMs for best performance
With Nehalem Intel shows a once in a decade overwork of their CPU architecture. Compared to other competitors their integration of the memory controller into the CPU as well as on die routing comes a little late. It seems that Intel was able to learn f...
The Nehalem architecture is one for the future. With its heavy slant towards multi-core and multi-threaded applications, expanded and dedicated memory bandwidth for the processors and the re-introduction of HyperThreading, the Core i7 launching now ma...
From this we can take home the fact that the Core i7 has started out as a good overclocker. Getting to the sweet spots wasnt really difficult and all this achieved on the stock air cooling solution provided by Intel and stock core voltages. We feel th...
Despues de todo lo que os hemos mostrado, y las pruebas demostradas en los benchmark, esta claro la superioridad hoy por hoy del Core i7, tanto en rendimiento como en overclocking, si bien el precio de AMD es bastante inferior al de Intel, puede ser un...
Es ley de vida. Los Core2 empiezan a tocar fondo con una plataforma que a lo largo de su evolución ha proporcionado a todos los usuarios además de un fabuloso rendimiento, una eficiencia incomparable y un nivel de flexibilidad jamás visto, clara muestr...
Intel nuevamente cumple con su Tick Tock y nos encontramos justo y a tiempo con el primer exponente de la nueva familia Nehalem: Core i7 “Bloomfield”. Así mismo, estamos ante el primer procesador de esta linea Core i7, el Extreme 965, que como su nombr...
Quadcore oblige : bonnes performances dans les applications audio / vidéo / 3D, Gain de performances intéressant par rapport à l'ancienne gamme, Reste très performant dans les applications non optimisées quadcore,
Consommation élevée en activité, Prix surdimensionné
Un excellent processeur qui affiche de très bonnes performantes quels que soit les applications utilisées. Des résultats qui se paient au prix (trop) fort tout de même....
A chaque fois que se présente une nouvelle architecture Intel, on a un peu la crainte de revivre le syndrome Netburst soit un concept très impressionnant sur le papier mais ô combien décevant en pratique. Mais à priori Intel a bien appris de cet éche...
Si ce premier test pratique ne met en lice que les deux fleurons des architectures Core et Nehalem, il permet de les comparer à fréquence rigoureusement égale (3200 MHz). La nouvelle architecture apporte des gains de performances qui peuvent atteindre ...
Abstract: La consommation des ces Core i7 est en hausse par rapport à Penryn qui avait réduit sensiblement les valeurs consommées en charge et en idle. Ici, on est du niveau d\'un QX9770 voire au-delà, avec un Core i7 Extreme 965 qui consomme plus que le QX6700..
