INTEL CONROE CORE DUO 2 REVIEW VS AMD AM2

According to the new announcements of processors generation Core, the first serial products should appear in June-July, now we have imperceptibly crept to the middle of May. So, it is necessary to start to prepare for public for a meeting with Conroe. Company Intel has already lowered the prices for processors of the previous generation, now on turn promulgation of new trade marks.

As i have informed last week from numerous sources, on this Monday company Intel will make property of the public trade marks and names of processors Conroe, Merom and Woodcrest. More precisely speaking, this news in a greater degree concerns first two families for server processors Woodcrest will simply join modelling line Xeon under a symbol " Xeon 51xx ".

Much more interestingly business{affairs} with evolution of trade marks of processors Conroe and Merom are: they will receive an identical brand " Core 2 Duo ", desktop processors will concern to a series " Core 2 Duo E6xxx " (models about 1066 MHz bus) or " Core 2 Duo E4xxx " (models about 800 MHz bus), and mobile processors will concern to a series " Core 2 Duo T5xxx " (models about 2 Mb of cache) or " Core 2 Duo T7xxx " (models about 4 Mb of cache). Frequency range of Merom at the announcemnt moment will lay within the limits of from 1.83 up to 2.33 GHz, for Conroe it will make from 1.6 up to 2.66 GHz. In the further it can extend both aside increases, and aside reduction.

We have studied processors Conroe XE, a semblance of a photo of one of which only yesterday, will receive own trade mark - " Core 2 Extreme ". Apparently, counters of the first the processor with frequency will start to master of 3.33 GHz and 1333 MHz the trunk, but some source specify That should be the max from the Core 2 Extreme with frequency of 3.0 GHz. It can happen a little bit later, when processor Pentium XE 965 (3.73 GHz) and then Core 2 Duo Extreme 3.0 GHz become it replacement will quit the stage, having kept and moderated for Conroe the price in $999.

conroe core duo overclock

only yesterday we had the chance to overclock the conroe under luiquide nitrogen we had looked for 4.5 ghz ++.this could be achevable the new B0 core: on a motherboard with good opportunities to increase the vore voltage. the processor with a high multiplier (10x) under influence of liquid nitrogen has not wanted to go over 4.6 GHz. What could be the bottleneck? Most likely, the motherboard which cannot simply go over 460 MHz. How to improve the overclock result?just with finding motherboard with higher overclocking potential , or to use a processor with a unlocked multiplier. their is only one conroe cpu capable of those adjustment this one is the Core 2 Extreme X6800 (2.93 GHz).
