Intel LGA1156 One Minute or Less Linus Tech Tips

Ohh just shut up all of you >:c

Buy an AMD AM3 based PC and that's all.

Waaaaay better compatibility, and relatively futureproof

I'll give you only one question- Is this socket good when i'm using - Intel® Core™ i7 860 (2.8Ghz, 4 Cores, 8 Threads, Turbo, 8MB Cache, 45nm(Quad-core processor))???? Thanx for answer xD

[UTubeLightBulb]

Core i7 runs on 1136 not 1336.

[LFCforEver12341]

@UTubeLightBulb first off, its 1156 not 1136, and core i7's run on both 1366 (core i7 920, 930, 940, 950, 960, 975k, 980x) aswell as socket 1156 (only core i7 860 and a couple more). the 1156 nes have a lower TDP of 90w vs 130w of the more expensive (and better) 1366 socket.

meh enough with the intel garbage

With 775 if you wanted cheaper you could just dump in a crappy Celeron and you were good to go and then upgrade to something better later. Now you have to buy the whole mobo too with the pleasure of knowing if you want to upgrade, all you can salvage is your RAM and daughter boards. Also, i5 is capable of something like 4 or 6 (can't remember) threads, i7 (1156) 8 threads and the REAL i7 (1366) is 12 threads I believe. However, tests aren't showing much gain with triple channel memory.

[LinusTechTips]

LGA1156 i5 = 4 cores, 4 threads, dual channel

LGA1156 i7 = 4 cores, 8 threads, dual channel

LGA1366 i7 = 4 cores, 8 threads, triple channel

@LinusTechTips Hey, your vid are great for my refrence on my new comp, but what is the main difference on 4 threads and 8 threads?

[magichristo]

@LinusTechTips I Only didnt get an i7 920 because I was advised to get a 860(LGA1156) because of the better clock speeds

[LightBringerize]

And 1366 =no intefrated GPU 1156 =integrated gpu

[Ptro001]

@N1ght3d what type of dope do you have?

[soulcrackerz]

we need the camera on esther more ^_^

[LeJimster]

So what exactly is the point of the new socket? Normally with each socket revision you are seeing improvements, but this is a few steps backward. Seems very pointless, unless the new items are cheaper than existing tech?

[LinusTechTips]

cheaper ;)

[BSZanatsu]

Cheaper, runs a little cooler with less voltage, and in some cases that I have seen out performes the i7.

[op2rules]

pointless video

[doobiefillin]

any pics of the skirt running around in the background? lol

[begsler]

ya man... add her on facebook

her name is ... "ncix esther" has some pics and also has some contests to win prizes... look it up

[and1rew]

who is esther? xD

[LinusTechTips]

New NCIX employee who was on the set causing trouble.

[op2rules]

haa causing trouble :)

[simranjeet36]

@LinusTechTips should i ugrade my i5 760 to 24000 or 2500...i dont know if i will notice the performance increase

[dojomann]

Nice and to the point. Good work once again Linus :D
