1,000 Intel processors through the years Not many things are sure in this life, but fortunately there are a number of things you can count on like clockwork. The sun comes up in the morning, we all have to pay taxes and last but not least, the most expe...

As we’ve mentioned in the past, the clock race is over; Intel and AMD are now focussing on the features that are packed onto the processors. In fact, this dual-core CPU operates at 3.2GHz. The reason for this drop in speed is evident, as it’s...
This is an interesting move, particularly by Intel, as usually the market that most benefits from multi-cored, multi-threaded systems is on server platforms. This is good for us consumers though, as g...

fast new dual core processors: The Hyper-Threading technology that Intel uses in its Pentium 4 and Xeon processors makes a single processor work as two virtual processors, so the Pentium 4 in your PC appears to have two CPUs while a...

Intel Pentium Extreme Edition 840 and 955X Express Chipset If a single word sums up Intels thoughts on CPU design in 2005 it would have to be parallelism. The incumbent Pentium 4 Prescott, for a variety of reasons, hasnt scaled to the kind of clocks...
Intels decision to amalgamate a second Pentium 4 Prescott core on to a single piece of silicon is a bold move, and its here to stay. Having used a dual-core system for the first time over this last weekend, one major advantage of running what effect...

Two heads better than one? We test Intels first dual core processor and subject it to a battery of real-world tests.
The common thinking when it comes to PC components is two (or more) of anything is better than one. Whether itd be two processors, two hard drives or two video cards, depending on the situation, multiple components should provide a speed boosts over...

Dual core is the future is desktop computing. At least this is the mantra weve been hearing from both the AMD and Intel camps, but even so, the reasons are pretty clear. Single core processors depend on every-higher clock speeds, architectural improv...

It still seems like dual core processors have arrived rather suddenly. Just a few short months ago, we were blissfully unaware, running our single benchmarks and counting gigahertz. As it turns out, HyperThreading was just a small glimpse of what was t...

There’s a presentation slide that Intel recently sent us plotting time versus the performance of its processors and what tasks they’ve been designed to address. According to Intel, back in the days of its 486, technology was impacted by Micros...

The Pentium Extreme EditonThe New Champ On Top: Intel Pentium EE 840 Dual Core Today: For more than a year now the enthusiast community has been hearing the benefits of dual core processors. AMD was the first to announce their move to a dual core s...
Nathan Kirsch's Thoughts: I have only had a few days to spend tinkering with this test system, so it is really too early to come to a solid conclusion on anything thus far. Everyone knew Intel had dual core up and running, but the embargo lift on per...
