Thread: Intel Core i7 975 Extreme Edition processor

The Intel Core i7 975 Extreme Edition has the same features of its 965 predecessor. The innovations such as the CPU interface Quick Path Interconnect (QPI), the integrated DDR3 memory controller with its three-channel mode, the three-stage buffer architecture, and techniques such as Hyper-Threading and Turbo mode, we have comprehensively in the test Intel Core i7 described.

The Core i7 965 is the fastest desktop CPU to date was in the test. Clear that the leader of the now - does Intel Core i7 975 Extreme Edition, and establishes new benchmarks in all records - working with the slightly higher clock. Compared to the previous leader of the Leader board CPUs than 200 € was the Core i7 975 average, but only 3 percent faster. At a speed increase of up to 5 percent of Intel's new flagship is only for programs that utilize all eight virtual cores fully. Thus achieved the Core i7 975 Extreme Edition in the Cine bench rendering test of 10 phenomenal 16 439 points.



The Intel Core i7 975 Extreme Edition is the fastest desktop CPU you can currently buy. Compared to the previous Core i7 965 offers 3.33 GHz processor 3 to 5 percent more computing power at a slightly reduced power consumption and significantly improved energy efficiency. Bottom line gets the quad-core CPU from Intel to test not only the victory, but our recommendation tempo tip.

the Core i7CPUs sensational 129 watts the lowest value of all existing CPUs in the test. Compared to the 3.2-GHz Core i7 965 predecessor, the 163 watts consumed in standby mode, power consumption, Intel 975 same one-fifth of the press. At full utilization of all cores jumped the power consumption of the Core i7 platform test, however, was clearly up: With the Core i7 975 of the energy consumption was at 295 watts and that only 5 watts under the predecessor Core i7 965th.
