What do you call a processor that is ten months late, uses a lot of power, and overpromises in performance but underdelivers in practice? Now it would be kind of mean to point fingers and name names here, but I promise you it is not Sandy Bridge. Earlier this year, we have reviewed a couple of Intel's second generation Core CPUs, including the Intel Core i5-2500K and Core i3-2120 -- with both living up to everything every enthusiast raves about over and over again pretty much everywhere you go. It is simply unquestionable that these processors are superior to its predecessors and the competition in almost every way -- whether it is performance, power consumption, bang for your buck, and at least for the enthusiast oriented K-series, overclocking. With that in mind, what we have here at APH Networks this morning is yet another Sandy Bridge core CPU for review. While the Intel Core i5-2405S is not designed for overclocking (It is unfortunate it comes with a locked multiplier and a base clock you can't play around with), the little 's' at the end of its name means there is one thing that it focuses on: Reduced TDP from 95W to 65W. Actually, before we begin, let me just clarify on one thing first. The difference between the Core i5-2400s and 2405S is the 2405S comes with Intel HD Graphics 3000 rather than 2000. Are we all good? Let's waste no time for the details.
Die OC-Datenbank der Redaktion ocinside.de umfasst über 11.000 PCs mit tausenden Prozessor Übertaktungs Ergebnissen. Im neuen Update wurden einige Erweiterungen vorgenommen, wie z.B. die direkte Bedienung, Sortierung und Auswahl über die Titelleiste. Desweiteren wurden neue CPUs wie z.B. die AMD FX Bulldozer Prozessoren und die AMD APUs zur direkten Auswahl in der Datenbank aufgenommen. Die OC Datenbank wird jede Nacht aktualisiert. Wer heute sein System einträgt, kann es also bereits morgen mit über 11.000 anderen PCs vergleichen.
Today we shall focus on Intel Core i7 processors, in particular those outperforming Core i7-880. Firstly, we need to retest them with our new test method. Secondly, the new LGA2011 platform is to be announced very soon, and we'll need these test results for further comparison.
If you're unsure as to what Bulldozer and the FX range or processors is all about, then we suggest you take a look at our article explaining the ins and outs of it. If you are aware of what Bulldozer and the FX range is all about, we still suggest that you take a look as some vital key information is listed, including something that you may have missed. The article focusses on the complete range of processors in the line-up and clearly goes into detail about the technology that makes it up and what simply makes it tick.
Last week we reviewed AMD’s new FX 8150 processor – the world’s first 8 core desktop chip. Today we are following up with a look at the power consumption when compared against Intel’s ever popular Core i5 2500k and Core i7 2600k.
Ende letzten Jahres wurde von Akasa der Venom vorgestellt. Mit einem grellen Lüfter der Viper-Serie sollte er vor allem die Spieler ansprechen, was durch den Slogan "unlock Venom - Game on!" unterstrichen wurde. Rund ein Jahr später erblickt der Nachfolger des Venom, der Venom Voodoo, nun das Licht der Erde und kommt in den Handel. So wurde der Kühler in einigen Punkten überarbeitet, dazu zählt unter anderem der zweite Lüfter, welcher nun bei liegt. Aber auch bei der Anzahl und der Art der Heatpipes hat sich etwas getan. Statt vier Heatpipes mit acht Millimetern Durchmesser besitzt der Venom Voodoo nun sechs 6-mm-Heatpipes. Was sich gerade bei der Kühlleistung getan hat, klären wir für euch auf den folgenden Seiten.
The Corsair CMGTX4 and CMGTX7 were two of the fastest RAM kits available at the time; they carried with them a huge price tag and 'till today, the speed on the GTX4 kit is just insane. Both kits are dual channel, but neither would achieve their rated speeds. While overclocking on the Z68 platform is great, its memory overclocking is limited and actually not as strong as the older P55 when it comes to raw MHz. Having unfortunately admitted defeat on these two kits, I never got around to actually looking at them, because we couldn't get the default speeds.
Ivy Bridge CPUs decouple the main clock finally, following what the coming Sandy Bridge - E Socket 2011 is also implementing. Now, you can overclock the cores and memory without worrying about affecting the I/O and PCIe clocks. But then comes the more interesting piece news. A year later, in early 2013, the pinnacle of Intel's 22 nm process show off, the initial Haswell processor, is expected to go another step further, where CPU core, GPU, memory, PCI and DMI ratios are all set independently here, on top of fine grain BCLK base clock available within the Lynx Point chipset.
We've already provided a fair bit of coverage on the new FX-8150 CPU from AMD and it hasn't all been favorable for the team over at AMD. If you haven't looked yet, I highly recommend you check out our other pieces that cover the VGA testing side of things and my editorial Shi**y Marketing Killed the Bulldozer Star which has really gained traction over the last few days.
