Abstract: 1,000 Intel processors through the years Not many things are sure in this life, but fortunately there are a number of things you can count on like clockwork. The sun comes up in the morning, we all have to pay taxes and last but not least, the most expe...
Has Intel jumped the gun on quad-core computing? Well, its certainly true that many of our benchmark results fail to demonstrate any benefit to quadcore CPUs. In fact, its clear that Intels new Quad chips are actually slower for single and dual-thre...
Abstract: If you thought dual-core processors were cutting edge, youre already behind the times. Quad core is here, in the form of the Extreme QX6700. The processor itself isnt a "native" quad-core part. By this, we mean the four execution cores dont exist...
Abstract: Needless to say, the gigahertz war between AMD and Intel is history. Comparing clock speeds does not do justice to CPU performance today - unless youre comparing processors within a product family. For the time being, performance is tied to the numb...
Major leap in performance on multitasking and most multithreaded applications; lots of apparent headroom for overclocking an already fast chip
High price tag; Apples twin dual-core Xeons in the Mac Pro make for a faster digital design configuration
If you thought dual cores were over the top, get ready. Intel presents the Core 2 Extreme QX6700, a single CPU with four distinct processing cores. At around £525, the first quad-core CPU will remain an enthusiast part for a while, but as a glimpse of...

Abstract: Today Intel released the highly-anticipated quad-core version of its powerful Core 2 desktop processor series. Little more than two Core 2 Duo E6700 cores in one socket package, todays model QC6700 offers the same performance and efficiency enhanceme...
Although quad-core clearly has a little way to go before the majority of applications take better advantage of it, as indeed does dual-core, there are plenty of benefits to be had already from Intel’s Core 2 Extreme QX6700. If you like to run multip...
Abstract: Intels Core 2 range of processors impressed us. The E6700 won our Best Component award in Shopper December 2006. Never a company to rest on its laurels, Intel has released the Core 2 Extreme QX6700 processor, which has four processor cores. From th...
The Intel Core 2 Extreme QX6700 offers a glimpse of what the future holds, but for now there are few apps crying out for a quad-core processor. Windows Vista may bring better support for multi-threading, ensuring each thread has the same access to CPU...
