Thread: Intel Core i7 Extreme 965

World premiere, today we see the performance of Core i7 Extreme 965 the first of the new line of Intel processors. A change of architecture a new name a new socket and everything new in our Intel performance analysis of the first Bloomfield market.

Intel, the largest semiconductor company in the world today introduced the new processor architecture. A fact that many may not be significant but for fans of the irons is a more than interesting.

With the launch of Conroe the architecture of Core 2 Duo processors Intel announced a strategy with a horizon of 8 years, which would work in architecture and improvements in production processes. This strategy which we have talked enough Tick Tock it means that every 24 months will see as Intel launches new processor micro-architecture which will be employed in products across laptops, desktops and servers and in that same period miniaturized processes.

This is how the news 12 months ago were the Penryn processors Conroe on 45nm Nehalem today is also manufactured in 45nm and 12 months we will see 32nm models of the same architecture that we see for the first time today.

Clearly the most entertaining moments are the architectural changes that bring new capabilities themselves compared to only bring miniaturized higher frequencies and space for new transistors. And today we are happy because it is a day of fun changes.

Nehalem is the codename of the new micro-architecture of Intel. This eventually cover all lines of Intel Core i7 desktop and laptop, Xeon for servers, Atom for net books and MIDs nettops Titanium servers and mission critical.
