When Intel sends out press samples of their new CPUs, they generally provide the top-end desktop products like the Core i7-4470K. And it’s fun to have the latest new super-fast processor to play with. But most people don’t need this level of power, and indeed in many cases even enthusiasts won’t make full use of the capabilities of a high-end part. Given that, might a less expensive, mid-range CPU be a better choice? Benchmark Reviews tests the mid-range Intel Core i5-4430 CPU, desktop processor model BX80646I54430, to find out.
The X79 is a favorite platform here in the Ninjalane Labs, we use it on our video card test benches and always have a system ready for multi GPU overclocking when multithreaded performance is important.
After a lot of messy NDA politics between Intel and the main motherboard vendors the launch day of Intel’s Z97 Express chipset is finally upon us. In respect of our relationship with Intel we have been holding off with publishing our reviews until now and today we have a couple of reviews for you. The first is the entry level ASUS Z97 motherboard, the dash A model. This motherboard will be hitting the market at a fairly affordable £115 or $150 making it an attractive price point for entering onto Intel’s enthusiast Z97 platform. Despite the ASUS Z97-A being fairly affordable it still gets most of the features we will see on higher end motherboards such as M.2, SATA Express, Intel Gigabit LAN and all the new ASUS Z97 (Channel) software features we looked at a while back including the new AI Suite III package. Let’s start by taking a closer look at the specifications of the ASUS Z97-A:
Today we will be taking a look at the latest processor in the Phenom family, the Phenom 2 X4 940 Black Edition. This CPU will be AMDs highest performing processor until the DDR3 variants reach the market later this year. Through a selection of benchmarks including media encoding, Photoshop and gaming we will establish how good the Phenom 2 is, and whether it is worth the upgrade for existing Phenom users.
Our quick look at the Intel Xeon 5500 series was a very impressive one. The Intel Xeon X5570 that we looked at today operates at 2.93GHz during normal operation, but when Turbo Boost Technology is enabled the operating frequencies increased up to 3.33GHz. With this much clock frequency and all the performance features that the Intel Xeon 5500 series has to offer you end up with a server processor that blows past the competition without looking back
There has been a steady stream of processor releases from AMD in recent times. Whether it is revisions of triple and quad core models or the addition of DDR3 parts to the product line there has always been something new to look at regularly. Two weeks ago we took a look at the latest high end Phenom 2, the 955 (Read The Review) and now AMD have another release for us to cover. The Athlon X2 7850 Black Edition.
In addition to this the past week has also seen the release of the Radeon 4770, AMD’s first card to use a 40nm GPU and we have two of these models on our test bench.
Zum Sommer dreht Intel noch einmal an der Taktschraube der relativ neuen Core i7. Mit 3,06 und 3,33 GHz ziehen die beiden Probanden Core i7 950 und 975 Extreme Edition ins Rennen. Wie gewohnt sehen wir uns beide Kandidaten genau an und untersuchen dabei noch einmal den Turbo-Modus und das neue HyperThreading sowie deren Auswirkungen auf Performance, Leistungsaufnahme und Temperatur.
If you live in North America, you may remember the recent Gatorade commercial "What's G?". Well, that seems like the perfect phrase for what we're going to be taking a look at today; none other than the Thermaltake's newest gaming chassis, the Element G. The newly released Element G is one of three cases as a part of Thermaltake's Element Series.
AMD legt heute abermals nach und erhöht den Takt seines Quad-Core-Prozessors Phenom II X4 auf 3,40 GHz. Um diese Taktrate erreichen zu können, musste AMD jedoch die TDP des Phenom II X4 965 Black Edition auf 140 Watt anheben. Dieser Schritt ist uns vom unseeligen Phenom X4 9950 Black Edition noch bestens in Erinnerung, doch diesmal verfügt AMD über ein deutlich besseres Ausgangsmaterial.
