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...
The QX6700 performs pretty much as you’d expect it to- if slower than the X6800 in single and dual threaded applications but a lot faster in multi-threaded applications. Games are still in dire need of taking advantage of multi-threading however, as...
Abstract: November 7, 2006 In April 2005, Intel was the first to release a dual core processor just before AMD. These processors became more and more popular since the release of the Core 2 Duo and decreases on AMD´s price list. Now the number of cores increase...
Major leap in performance on multitasking and most multithreaded applications compared to high-end dual-core CPUs, Lots of apparent headroom for overclocking an already fast chip
High price tag makes quad-core processing an elite technology for now, 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. The first quad-core CPU will remain an enthusiast part for a while, but as a glimpse of the future, it...
Dual and Multiple cores are certainly the way to go. Speeds have hit a wall, going for a Gigahertz advantage simply isn’t enough, Intel found that out with the Pentium 4, a pure GHz speed king.Intel has been the first to market with its Dual Core pr...
Abstract: Our review of Core 2 Extreme QX6700, the first Intel quad-core CPU running at 2.66 GHz and compatible with socket 775 platform. Does quad-core CPUs really improve PC performance? Check it out.
Under optimala förhållanden (många parallella instruktioner) kan prestandan öka jämfört med två processorkärnor, Goda överklockningsmöjligheter
Hög värmeutveckling (kräver bra kylning), I regel inga märkbara vinster i vanliga program och spel, Det är inte alla moderkort som stödjer processorn och ofta behövs uppdaterade biosversioner, Inte prisvärd
Resultaten förvånade oss inte då det kommer att krävas att mjukvaran anpassas mer än som det ser ut idag till processorer som QX6700. Vi prövade även testprogrammet Specviewperf 9.03 (professionella 3d-applikationer) utan att se några som helst vinste...

Abstract: So are four cores better than two? The answer is both a resounding yes and a disappointing no.For gaming, four cores is not going to show much of an improvement over two or even one until game developers begin coding games to take advantage of them. N...
Abstract: Intel Core 2 Extreme QX6700 Quad Core ProcessorAt an Intel press conference earlier, we were shown just how fast the new Core 2 Extreme QX6700 was. When they compared it against a Core 2 Duo E6700, which ran at the same clock speed, the quad-core proce...
Compatibilité, Plus attractif que 4x4, Consommation au repos, Performances dans les applications optimisées
Echauffement, Tarif trop élevé, Core 2 Duo Doublo, Consommation en charge
Le quad core est-il utile ? À cette question nous ne pouvons que répondre : autant et aussi peu que le dual core. En effet, ce sont les mêmes applications qui en tirent partie, et les mêmes qui y sont insensibles. Bien entendu, certaines ne sont pas e...
