That damn thing will melt my computer with it's awesomeness.
-
what about dual xeon forming 12 cores?
-
@cdnerds yeah I hate it when people do that :/
-
@cdnerds Actually, I bought the i7 960 to understand the CPU architecture. I'm an OS developer looking to take advantage of all these new technologies. I also process a lot of You Tube video, so having 4 cores really helps!

95% of the people that will buy this will do nothing more then read email, surf the web and play farmville. Its pretty sad.

@chayut1992 If the Core I7 is using turbo boost, they aren't really at the same speed now are they?
-
Funny how the 920 model is sufficient in many ways when OC:d to over 4GHz with air cooling (I've done it). This CPU is amazing in so many levels.

@OrAnGeTrEaT so does amd's processors.best bang for the buck
-
looking forward to it

lol, the Core 2 Series CPU's, some have 12MB Cache!

Things that make core i7 up to 4 times faster in video encoding than a core 2 quad at the same clock speed:
- Returning of hyper threading: core i7 is able to scale 8 threads from its 4 physical cores, improving multithreading performance, if application supports.
- Turbo Boost technology: overclocks the active core, getting max performance for that thread
- QuickPath: more data flow between CPU and chipset
- Triple channel memory controlled by CPU's integrated controller, getting more bandwidth
