Introduction Technology often seems to be running along at a breakneck pace; many people are still trying to find good uses for quad-core Core 2 Duo processors, and yet already those are yesterday's news . Every year, users can count on new CPUs, GPUs, and other hardware to make their once great computer system seem old and outdated. Thankfully, there are areas where progress occurs at a more sedate pace. Yes, once again it's time to talk about displays. That's not to say that displays haven't changed a lot over the years; besides lower prices, we have seen some technological ...

Ask Dan: AMD versus Intel Publication date: 4 November 2008 Last modified 04-Nov-2008. Coming soon: The Athlon 6000 SUX This chip [which you can't actually buy any more, but as we'll see, that's not necessarily a bad thing] is significantly lower in price than the Athlon 64 X2 4850E . Is there a big difference in performance? What is the best price/performance AMD choice at the moment? Tony Answer: The Aus PC Market listing for the 4850E is actually slightly wrong, though I can't blame them, because AMD have really gone out of their way to make their CPU lineup as confusing as they possibly bleeding well can. The ...

... for the niche extreme overclocking market. As a first task, this is no small undertaking for anyone regardless of prior credentials. With NVIDIA succumbing to pressure from Intel (by providing SLI licensing rights to the upcoming X58 chipset), it seems there's little reason for anyone to be looking at a short-term stopgap SLI mainboard - unless we factor in the cost of a new processor that the X58 chipset will require if you're moving up from an older platform. It appears that Nehalem/Core i7 won't universally benefit gaming performance, but even with that small nugget of ...
The Lynnfield Preview: Rumblings of Revenge
AnandTech Article Channel —
Note: This article was not condoned or supported in any way by Intel. We obtained all pre-release hardware on our own. Enjoy. The Recap Yeech, ok, this is more complicated than it should be. Last year Intel launched its brand new Nehalem architecture, the first processor was codenamed Bloomfield and sold as the Core i7 . [image] Nehalem - Bloomfield, aka Core i7 The Core i7 has four cores (with Hyper Threading, so that’s 8 threads), an 8MB L3 cache and a triple-channel DDR3 memory controller. Of course there’s a lot of other special sauce that makes the i7 the beast that it ...

Reviewing and Upgrading Apple's Nehalem Mac Pro
AnandTech Article Channel —
In my line of work, I tend to get access to a lot of very fast hardware. Both our SSD and GPU testbeds use Intel’s new Core i7 processor. If you read my review of the i7 you may have left the review feeling slightly underwhelmed by the processor. Sure, it was fast, but it wasn’t that much faster than a speedy Core 2 Quad. In the months since that review went live I’ve had the benefit of using the i7 a lot. And I might’ve grown a little attached. The processor itself isn’t overly expensive, it’s the motherboard that really puts it over the top; but if you have the means, I ...
