Overclocking MONSTER

byjustin3680 Jan 30, 2007
17 Helpfuls 18 Helpfuls Was this review helpful?
Pros Perfection. Speed, speed, speed, potential, price.
Cons 5 stars aren't enough.
Recommended it? Yes

Intel was dieing with the NetBurst Microarchitecture where AMD was starting to steal Intel's thunder with its Athlon 64 processors. Every so often when Intel and AMD would put out a newer and faster processor it would top its rival by a small margin. Well out of nowhere comes the beast that is the... Read full review »

Intel finally retakes AMD

byandrewzorn May 18, 2007
11 Helpfuls 12 Helpfuls Was this review helpful?
Pros Speed, price, low power/heat.
Cons Rumored to be a short-lived platform, it will eventually be beaten.
Recommended it? Yes

NOTE: Due to the nature of high-end computer parts, the information found in this review (especially in regards to performance) will likely be dated within a matter of months.

I was a long-time AMD fan until this CPU finally came out (after much speculation and rumor). I had an... Read full review »

Cons 65nm always produces more heat than a 45nm quad core
Recommended it? Yes

In the world of IT, we do not get out very often so our biggest thrills surround the arrival of new hardware.  Recently, a new desktop computer from Dell arrived and inside it was the Intel Core 2 Quad, 2.4Ghz processor.  The need to benchmark the daylights out of this processor was too much to...

Fast x4, Overclocks Well if Lucky, but HOT HOT HOT

bynad_masters Apr 23, 2008
19 Helpfuls 20 Helpfuls Was this review helpful?
Pros Can hit 3.5 GHz rock solid stable (YMMV), low FSB and high multiplier (easier OC)
Cons Bad heatsink mount design, high temperatures (even at stock settings)
Recommended it? Yes

It's no secret that Intel's current Core microarchitecture is superior than AMD's current K10. It is also no secret that Intel was ready to unveil a 45 μm refresh of the Core. The quad-core version would be codenamed Yorkfield. Not only will the die be smaller than today’s quad-core (codename... Read full review »
