Abstract: The arrival of less expensive socket LGA1156 Intel Core i5 and i7 chips changed that a bit. They are cheaper, but slightly slower than the top level Intel 975XE CPU. The system cost is also about on a par with the AMD top CPU bins. Yet, trying to put ...
Yet another motherboard upgrade (sigh....), Different CPU cooler Needed, Different mounting needed for CPU Cooler
In my opinion, the new Lynnfield Core i7 processors are a very good step in the right direction. Through testing and benchmarking, when compared to a Nehalem system, the new Intel i7-870 packs a lot of punch for the dollar. Performance differences wi...
When Nehalem launched, we received processors that were more powerful than anything we used before, and the brand-new architecture was a lot of fun to experiment with. But as I said before, there were a few reasons why people either chose to go with C...
So, the new platform has been launched. Is it successful? Yes, more than somewhat. If Core i7 for LGA1366 hadnt spoiled the triumph, we could have compared this situation with the transition from NetBurst to Core 2: when new Mid-End processors were f...

Abstract: But does that mean the Core i7-870 is worth its price tag? Power users with the chops for overclocking will find better value in the lone Core i5 model, which doesn’t feature Hyper-Threading but should scale up to 4GHz. At under $200, the Core i5-750 is a much more attractive CPU..
The Lynnfield is a worth successor to the Yorkfield. As Core i5-750 as well as Core i7-860 the new core shows that it is not inferior to the expensive Bloomfield. The performance benefit might not be as big as it had been from the Pentium D to the Cor...
