Amd is cheaper I'll give it that but I do t give flying fuck

[GameRemix]

The AMD Phenom series are the only true quad cores...u people know even know what a true quad is.

The intels use 2 dual cores on one chip, thats why they need so much L2 cache.

AMD uses 4 real single cores, therefore faster transfer rate and it needs very little L2 cache

@GameRemix

gtfoh who cares ur not designing them ok

[ricktheroll1]

@GameRemix yeah dumbass, try comparing something called 'EFFICIENCY' between these two. Intel utilizes their innovative technologies that constantly push the boundaries of modern science and engineering. For example, making a 'smart' cpu that is power efficient

[halfpol]

ALL quad cores on Market ALL are true 4 core CPU !

[SonsOfHateSphere]

Intel ftw!!! i9 gonna be a killer!

[myso2008]

have u noticed all Intel Developers workers designers are indian !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

seriously haha so funny

[beenn15]

he doesn't sound very indian...

[punditaputhra]

people go on to do great things in life.. you should be inspired by these scientists rather than laugh at them..

[truviet911]

I know dude. I work at Broadcom and hell indian workers too haha even at qualcomm. they fucking everywhere haha im viet by the way...

[VictoryaGraphics]

@myso2008

Maybe because they are the intelligent people around us.

I am not Indian but if you see in the University they are one

of the tops. I do admire inteligent and clever people.

[kirkb4u]

@myso2008

Thats bcoz indians are born smart only poverty & lack of education is the disease here!

[zonlymachine]

@myso2008 its cuz we all smart, but the people with the turbans have a different story

[Hornet85]

If only I can afford one of these stuff.

Still, despite the premium price even for entry level Core i7, the Core i7 is certainly an amazing microprocessor. Hats off to Intel

Looking forward to getting one of these Core i7 system once it becomes affordable.. (those DDR3 ram as well)

[ShinobiXRevived]

It's only $250. Are you that poor.

By the way, there will be no 'affordable' i7. The mainstream version, for the poor n00bs will be the Core i5.

[FragileStaticCircus]

There's no such thing as the Core i5, stupid faggot.

[Bangitzinoobify]

You need to get educated stupid dipshit, Core i5 comes out in September of this year. Google it faggot.

[FragileStaticCircus]

My bad dude, settle the fuck down.

[ShinobiXRevived]

Hmm, what he said, your the stupid faggot here lol. "No such thing" Lmfao you must be living under a fucking rock.

[CatchaHD]

Its coming out soon.

[HandsUpPantsDown]

core i7 is a very fine processor, but one has to ask, is it really worth the premium? $280 for the cpu (the others have been discontinued), and at least $200 for the mobo? come on. you can't even max out cpu usage of an i7.

most people who build their own computers game, and that is their primary focus, so it is kinda ridiculous to say that i7 makes a good gaming system when p2 is currently dominating.

amd has had a great past year, with of course the 4800 series and the phenom II

[FragileStaticCircus]

The Core i7 is a whole new architecture, it's really amazing, it's cheap for the performance you are getting...AMD sucks by the way...Intel is the best.

[ProjectRealityBf2]

I wouldn't say AMD sucks but Intel is better bar none but those new amd quad core processors the phenom II are apparently pretty dam good!

[FragileStaticCircus]

The AMD "Quad-Cores" aren't even quad cores! They're dual cores that are hyperthreaded! The Core i7's are TRUE quad-cores, and they are hyperthreaded so it is like 8 cores.

[ProjectRealityBf2]

I have an Intel Core2 Quad Q6600 @ 2.4ghz is that a quad core or is it the same thing as the AMD Phenom II?

[FragileStaticCircus]

The Core 2 Quads are dual cores that are hyperthreaded as well...The Core i7 are the only processors that are true quad cores.

[Tr1p101]

No the core 2 Quads are two core 2 duo processors into 1 package ... logical cores wil give you better performance then mear hyperthreading will look it up on the intel website if you must :P

its a system on chip VS system in package scenario

[FragileStaticCircus]

Core i7's are the only TRUE quad core processor...Get over it.

[Splooshiba]

what about i5?

[ankit383]

fragile u are correct, core i7 TURE QUAD CORE

[GameRemix]

your fucking talking shit gtfo

[jubjubcat]

ill have to buy this

[falseaddress010]

are u that paranoid?

[undermybedis]

it came out. whoooooooooo

[hulurocks]

2 more days baby! finally gonna replace my

fucking p4

[bigbone38]

i bet u wont get it

[lizardmannnn]

what speed was your p4?

[3dscott]

i thought t had 8 cores...

[JumpingJack6]

It can process 8 threads, it has 4 cores. The design is scalable to 8 cores or 16 threads. This is been widely publicized, and in every review... you must have read one by now.

[3dscott]

My bad. Thanks for clearing things up

[JumpingJack6]

No problem.

[crapgadgets546]

noob

[aleckermit]

Too bad they use a different socket type... I'll stick with my E8400 for now...

But man if I had the money, that Corei7 965 Extreme is INSANELY fast, faster than even the Skulltrail dual QX9775 setup.

[tombmxcrowley]

they had to as with the memory controler

[Arsenaloid]

next month

[crazyred98]

Awesome.cant wait for it to release
