Reviews and Ratings
This time we'd like to offer you the summarized test results of as many as 71 processors. This generally marks the end of the year, not the end of another test method's life cycle (like the last time). We believe this summary contains all important...
By iXBT Labs onIt's common to manage PCs remotely in today's business environment. Intel's vPro technology aims to simplify that task by giving IT professionals...
By Tom's Hardware onPCMag Editors did not test the Intel Core i5-2500. We did, however, test and review the Intel Core i5-2500K (4.5 stars, Editor's Choice). A quad-core processor with a 3.7GHz max speed, the Intel Core i5-2500 ($209.99 list) offers a 6MB Smart Cache and...
By PC Mag onIn November 2008, Intel introduced the Core i7 LGA 1366 processors, the first CPUs based on its new Nehalem architecture. After rolling them out on Socket LGA 1156 in September 2009, Nehalem was then released on 32nm dual core and six core CPUs in...
By BeHardware onFinally, a moment anticipated by many: test results of Intel's new LGA1155 platform are available. This resembles the situation with LGA1156, because the new processors will be rolled out in several steps. Today we'll get to know the details of...
By iXBT Labs onThe Core i5 was the second CPU from Intel to come with an integrated memory controller (the Core i7 was the first, while the Core i3 was the third), feature present on CPUs from AMD since the Athlon 64. Core i5 CPUs are based on the Core architecture,...
By Hardware Secrets onDieser Test sollte vor allem die Käufer interessieren, die keine dedizierte Grafik nutzen möchten. Die "kleinen" Sandy Bridge CPUs gibt es ohnehin nur mit der kastrierten Grafik. Doch um einen fairen Vergleich beider Versionen zu ermöglichen, haben...

A brand-new core design enables the chips to do more at a given clock speed than their predecessors. The humble Core i3-2120 runs at a slightly slower 3.3GHz frequency than the mid-range i5-660 from Intel's older 1156 platform, but it achieved higher...
