Abstract: Intel never quite reached 4GHz with the Pentium 4. Despite being on a dedicated quest for gigahertz the company stopped short and the best we ever got was 3.8GHz. Within a year the clock (no pun intended) was reset and we were all running Core 2 Duos...
Although the new Sandy Bridge architecture may not be revolutionary, it is a much improved version of Nehalem as it seems to do everything a little better. When compared to the Clarkdale Core i5 661 processor which we reviewed exactly a year ago, the ...
sWhat we are witnessing with the launch of Sandy Bridge is a paradigm shift in CPU design. I don’t throw out that phrase lightly either – Sandy Bridge is an improvement on every front over every other chip in its price range. And if anything, the $200-...
Abstract: Although the processing cores in Intel’s Sandy Bridge architecture are decidedly similar to Nehalem, the integration of on-die graphics and a ......
Abstract: Hey all and welcome to the new year! We've mentioned in some other reviews that 2011 is going to be a very significant year in the processor industry as we'll be faced with two changes. The first being a new architecture for both Intel and AMD, chang...

Abstract: Exactly one year ago today, we posted our biggest (in terms of wordage) launch article ever. The product at hand? Intel's Clarkdale processors, which at the time, were the most sophisticated offerings on the market. They were also the first to bring a...
So we have the replacement for the LGA1156 series of processors that just seemed to be finding their feet. With them coming it at three differing price points but not really for three different markets, we have to split this conclusion into three parts...
