Back in April, Benchmark Reviews covered the release of AMD's flagship quad-core processor, the Phenom II X4 955 BE. Nearly four months later, we have that opportunity once again. Today, we look at the new king of the mountain over at the AMD, the Phenom II X4 965 Black Edition processor model HDZ965FBGIBOX. Coming in at 3.4GHz, it not only bests the previous flagship model by 200Mhz, but also happens to be the highest clocked CPU on the market. In today's review, we find out how well that extra clockspeed translates to performance.
Today Intel are releasing CPUs based on the Nehalem architecture but with prices and specifications designed to appeal to mainstream consumers. Today we will be putting two of these models through their paces and comparing them to existing i7 CPUs as well as AMDs top Phenom 2 model and the best Core 2 CPU. In addition to that we will cover various memory configurations and throw a handful of the more interesting P55 based motherboards into the mix with two aftermarket coolers.
The new quad-core processors will surely seize the popular status from series 700. It's clearly seen on the summary diagram. It turns out that the fourth core can make up for the lack of L3 cache.
AMD has revised its current flagship CPU, the Phenom II X4 965 Black Edition into a slimmer electricity sipping 125W model, down from the initial 140W TDP processor released earlier this year. Since this is a refresh, there are only a few differences between the otherwise identical CPUs. New to the "C3" 125W revision AMD Phenom II X4 965 Black Edition is hardware implementation of the C1E enhanced halt state; basically a tool in the CPU power saving chest to reduce clock speeds on the fly.
Today we're taking a look at the Core i5-661 processor along with the new H55/57 chipsets which feature Intel's new onboard graphics chip.
Roundup:
Intel DH55TC,
Gigabyte P55A-UD3R,
ECS H55H-M,
Asus P7H57D-V Evo and
MSI H57M-ED65.
There are two angles to comment the performance of the Celeron from. On the one hand, we can see it's not that bad. It's the level of dual-core Athlon X2, not the lowest-end at that. However, from the other point of view, you can get much more in the low-end segment for a similar price.
Our review of the first six-core CPU to arrive on the market, Core i7-980X (3.33 GHz), based on the new 32 nm manufacturing process.
Today for review I've got another CPU Cooler from our friends at Thermaltake called the Frio. This cooler is aimed at those that like to overclock their CPUs. The Frio is fairly large but it performs very well especially when running on an overclocked CPU. It comes with two fans that have in-line speed controllers on them, and the cooler itself features five U-shaped heatpipes. I've put it up against my current CPU cooler, the Noctua NH-U12P on my Corei5 750 CPU running at both stock and overclocked speeds and I have to say that I am truly impressed by the performance of this cooler. So read on...
Mit der Einführung von Intel’s 32 nm Fertigung sind auch zahlreiche Prozessoren vorgestellt worden, die auf dieser neuen Architektur basieren und wieder für mächtig Gesprächsstoff gesorgt haben. Diese Herstellungsart nennt sich „Westmere“ und ist eine vereinfachte und umgearbeitete Auflage des rund 1 Jahr alten Nehalem Prozessors. Insgesamt hat Intel 18 neue Prozessoren basierend auf der 32-nm-Fertigungstechnik vorgestellt. Einer davon sticht natürlich enorm raus, da es der erste 6 Kern Prozessor in der Produktpalette ist. Die Rede ist vom Core i7 980X Extreme Edition mit dem Codenamen „Gulftown“, den wir euch etwas näher vorstellen wollen…
In early May 2010, AMD released a new series of processors that fills in some of the gaps in their Athlon-II and Phenom-II Dual, Triple, and Quad-Core Lines. Most of the newly released processors are really just 100MHz clock speed bumps on the old versions. In this article Benchmark Reviews focuses on the newly released AMD Athlon-II X2-260 Regor AM3 ADX260OCK23GQ processor. Based on the Regor core, the Athlon-II X2-260 has a 3.2GHz clock speed, up 100MHz from the Athlon-II X2-255 at 3.1Ghz which was released in January 2010. The Athlon-II X2-260 is at the very low end of the newly released processors and represents a value based market at only $76. Benchmark Reviews is going to directly compare the Athlon-II X2-260 to its predecessor to see just what advantages can be found in the new chip running 100MHz faster.
