AMD have once again gone with the new AM3 series socket type for their processors, with the upcoming DDR3 onboard chip controller in the CPU people can just wait for the improved latency and bandwidth potential of DDR3 with double the prize margin. Giving that AMD is still struggling with their own flagship processors going [...]
AMD has been ashamed by the poor core performance of their now still popular Phenom processors and the release of the X3 variants of their Phenom series, with a much lower clock speed than their Intel core 2 counterparts, really hurt the performance stakes for AM, in both gaming benchmarks and real world applications. Also [...]
Intel as it is by now is a great company that I like, with the great mix of performance and extremities of their products like the example of the old but not dead Intel Core 2 duo and Quad extremes, and are now going to be replaced with the new line of processors the Core [...]
In the AMD’s terms a new type of socket for them, is a good indication that they are still in the market and competitor with the new Intel’s LGA1366 socket. The only certain difference with the AMD’s AM2 and 2+ sockets to their new so called AM3 socket is that in the previous two they [...]
The Intel’s own low power consumption of desktop chipsets like the Intel atom, with the same fabrication of the new Intel core 2 Duo with 45nm and a socket type of the old but refurbished 437FCBGA8 that is not replaceable and also built in the board which is a D945GCLF2 a MINI-ITX form factor. With [...]
In the 45nm fabrication is the smallest we have seen in most CPU makers, while the AMD counterparts with their 55nm fabrication quad core Phenoms, with independent cores is in the offering of AMD, with an alternative to the power of multiple cores, the most important aspect when buying the core you want to pump [...]
Intel with showing of the new Nehalem processor and dubbed as the Intel’s Core 7i processor, with a new pin count of about 1366 connector pins in the motherboard and the CPU, to improve and widen up the lanes in the processor to the board. With the Intel Core 7i sporting 4 to eight cores [...]
AMD released their new High-end CPU, with the older 9850 is one of the first, non-bug ridden CPU, to battle out with the High-end of Intel, But this behemoth is not good enough with the Higher clock dual core of the E8000 series. And the Q6600 is still a good deal with just $200 and [...]
People have bought Intel for a number of reasons, for an upgrade to the newer Intel Core 2 Duo’s for their improved speed and over-clock ability with the help of the 45nm architecture a higher yield. With the old Conroe 65nm chips more used in the market like Dell and HP like the use of [...]
In 2007 we see Intel beating AMD from every processor, to every processor, and they cannot find a haven to compete Intel on their more efficient and powerful Intel Core 2 Duo’s for almost a year and a half, and to include to the disappointment, that AMD losing its ground on the graphics card war, [...]
