This is the fastest Intel processor that an average consumer could buy off a shelf today. However this power has specific uses and not one that an average user might need. If you need a blazingly fast processor for video processing or are in need for tons...
Intel has driven home its advantage with the release of the Core i7-3960X, which is now the fastest desktop processor on the market. As long as an application correctly exploits the six cores at its disposal, there's no competition for this processor a...
Abstract: This should not be a huge surprise, but the Intel Core i7 3960X "Sandy Bridge" Extreme Edition processor is one hell of a fast processor for desktops and workstations. For computationally-intense tests, the i7-3960X is a measurable upgrade over even t...
The Core i7-3960X is a worthy successor to last year's Extreme Edition processors, but the same caveats apply to it as to them. You'll see the greatest benefit in programs that are heavily threaded — computation-heavy spreadsheets, video encoding appl...
As was proven many times throughout this article, Intel has once again delivered the world's fastest desktop processor with its Core i7-3960X Extreme Edition. This of course comes as no surprise, as it's based on what we already knew to be the most ef...

Intel i7 3960X Sandy Bridge-E ProcessorWhen most people think of Sandy Bridge they think of the now famous i7 2600K and i5 2500K as they are priced right and have been shown to be excellent overclockers to boot a big plus with gamers and enthusiasts alike...
Staggering level of performance, More overclocking mechanisms as compared to Sandy Bridge, 48 PCIE lanes as compared to the 24 lanes of a Sandy Bridge system, Did I mention the performance? It's staggering, Quadchannel memory architecture,
Very, very expensive, Requires new X79based motherboard, which is also expensive, Few consumer level applications will take full advantage of its power, No CPU cooler included
Benchmark tests should always be taken with a grain of salt. It's difficult to try and isolate the performance difference a single component in a computer system makes, especially when it's necessary to compare across different manufacturers and platf...
