Everyone's wanted to trade up at times. Sure, you can get the 8oz steak for $15, but the 12oz steak is only $17.... Sometimes the choice can be as easy as calculating performance versus price, but other times it's worth to pay more if it will really satisfy your needs. The 3.16GHz Intel Core 2 Duo E8500 CPU is a dual-core chip based on the 45nm 'Wolfdale' core that falls into the upper end of family, supplanted only by the relatively expensive Core 2 Duo E8600.
Many reviewers and interested users said that it made no sense to upgrade from DDR2 to DDR3. So it must be really hard for the new memory type to justify its existence, even if there are some technical prerequisites for it already. We decided to publish a thorough analysis of the situation.
Bereits im Jahr 2007 gab es auf Planet 3DNow! zu lesen, dass AMD für seine kommende Prozessor-Architektur Bulldozer an einem neuen, eigenen SIMD-Befehlssatz werkelt: SSE5. Es sollte der erste Befehlssatz dieser Art in einem x86-Prozessor werden, der 3-Operanden-Instruktionen beherrscht. Doch in den letzten Monaten war es um dieses Thema erstaunlich still geworden. Was ist aus SSE5 geworden? Der Artikel gibt die Antworten.
Vor etwas mehr als drei Wochen erfolgte die Vorstellung von AMDs neuen CPU-Flaggschiff - dem AMD Phenom II X4 955 Black Edition für Sockel AM3. Auch wir bekamen im Vorfeld des Launches ein Sample von AMD übersandt, womit wir allerdings unsere liebe Mühe hatten. Nicht etwa, weil der Prozessor defekt war oder Instabilitäten auftraten, sondern weil die uns zur Verfügung stehenden Mainboards durchweg Probleme mit dem BIOS hatten. Eine nicht korrekt vorgegebene Prozessorspannung war noch das kleinste Übel, härter traf uns der komplette Ausfall unserer AM3-Mainboards.
Last weekend Madshrimps was the main guest at Alternate; two of our experienced overclockers demoed their skills during live overclocking sessions. On Friday CPU speeds over 8Ghz were reached, on Saturday video cards were tortured. Read on to find out if world records were broken.
In case of popular Core 2 processors with 1066/1333MHz FSB, it makes sense to use dual-channel memory of much higher bandwidth than the nominal FSB can provide. If we consider DDR2-667 the reference point, fast DDR2 or DDR3 memory can bring a 6-8% performance gain in real applications.
Released to be Pentium M's main competitor, Turion 64 from AMD is a low voltage CPU targeted to the mobile market. In this tutorial we will explain what are the main differences between Turion 64, Turion 64 X2 and Athlon 64 Mobile and also a table listing all Turion 64 and Turion 64 X2 CPUs released so far.
Today, Mike S, tests the Intel Core 2 Quad Q9400 2.66GHz Yorkfield processor. These are Intel's first quad-core 45nm processors, and offer a cooler chip with an in performance. Find out if this is worth the upgrade, or if you should just stick with what you've got.
AMDs release on July 1st 2008 included the introduction to three new quad core processors. One of which is the 9950, which was released to fix the TLB erratum problems on the 9900. The other two released were products new to the market, the 9150e and the 9350e
Nach ihrem ersten AM3 Mainboard Test zeigen sie nun auch den passenden Prozessor dazu, den AMD Phenom II X4 955 Black Edition. Wie immer haben sie sich die Prozessorleistung und die Neuerungen genauer angesehen. Aber auch das Thema "Oveclocking" und ein Vergleich gegen den Core i7 unter 3,6 GHz kamen nicht zu kurz.
