Intel Core i7-3960X Extreme Edition Overview Performance
Core i7-3960X, belonging to the family of Sandy Bridge-E, in comparison with the current top model Intel, namely Core i7-990X. Both rival chip classified as Extreme Edition and have six cores, and support simultaneous processing of 12 flows through software technology Hyper-Threading. Used in their manufacture 32-nanometer manufacturing standards.
Test results of the evaluation before the start of the technical features of the Core i7-3960X'in is important to remember briefly. New 6-core processor with 32nm process technology as a standard 3.30GHz 'serves as the core operating frequency of 3.9GHz and Turbo Boost technology to increase a up. For each kernel that supports dual-thread processor, 15MB memory capacity of its single-threaded applications because it seems to bring a significant performance increase to desktop systems by considering the Intel processor seems to be the highest memory capacity.
Sandy Bridge-E series is the most striking feature of the new generation of Intel processors have a four-channel memory support. DDR3 up to 1333MHz officially support overclocking by offering higher memory frequencies, but also run on processors, memory bandwidth will not recognize competing applications seem to have come to the fore. Core i7-3960X-E series, including the Sandy Bridge will be 130 watts thermal design power of all processors. X79 chipset motherboards for the new processors will be used in the last quarter of the release date. Although there has not yet been able to market in October with the new processors.
Let's come a performance level. According to tables prepared by the Intel Core i7-3960X, the performance of core importance, and Pov-Ray Cinebench tests, based on the Westmere architecture, which has the same number of cores and a slightly higher than the base frequency of 13% and 12%, respectively, the Core i7-990X'ten manages to be faster. At this point, the difference is mainly due to innovations possible to say that Sandy Bridge architecture. Pro Show Gold 4.5 and up and down to the test with similar results were obtained in 15%, the biggest difference came to 36% of the difference in 3DMark 11 and we see that the physical test.
The Intel Core i7-3960X Extreme Edition will be priced at $990 and produced as many as 1,000 units. It will compete with Advanced Micro Devices (AMD) which last month started shipping the eight-core FX-series.
