SHOP FOR A INTEL E6750 CORE 2 DUO 1333MHZ FSB PROCESSOR HERE

INTEL CORPORATE PROFILE

For more than three decades, Intel Corporation has developed technology enabling the computer and Internet revolution that has changed the world. Founded in 1968 to build semiconductor memory products, Intel introduced the world's first microprocessor in 1971. Today, Intel supplies the computing and communications industries with chips, boards, systems, and software building blocks that are the "ingredients" of computers, servers and networking and communications products. These products are used by industry members to create advanced computing and communications systems. Intel's mission is to be the preeminent building block supplier to the Internet economy.

PRODUCT INTRODUCTION


With Intel's introduction of its Core 2 Duo processor line, many people claim that Intel launched itself back into the processor race that it was losing at the time. Every new Core 2 Duo introduction saw increases in front side bus, internal cache size and the introduction of more features to further improve an already fast processor for the money. In almost every overclocker or enthusiast corner of the internet, more often than not, this line of processors is at the forefront of what tweakers are working on to make even faster. Core 2 Duo's are known for their excellent overclocking potential without having to increase the processor voltage. In some cases, people have had better luck undervolting these processors and thus unlocking even more speed by reducing overall cpu running temperature and increasing benchmarking stability.
The E6750 processor being reviewed today is not out to show any major improvements or to smash the results people have been enjoying with the E6700, but it is more a baby step into introducing a 1333Mhz FSB for increased processor to memory performance. Don't get me wrong, I do expect a measurable increase with the 267Mhz FSB improvement, but it won't be anything that will have E6700 owners upgrading the processor and also their motherboard for.
For the 1333Mhz upgrade, you will need a motherboard that supports the new processor FSB standard and at this time that is limited to the Intel P35 and the Nvidia 680i SLI motherboard chipsets. Both are arguably equivalent in terms of performance, but the Intel P35 does hold the edge seeing it does support DDR3. The Nvidia 680i SLI only supports DDR2 but from what I have been seeing, DDR3 isn't developing to be the DDR2 killer it was meant to be. It is not the DDR3's speed holding it back, it is the latency timings that are stopping the system from taking advantage of the bandwidth.
So is the E6750 the processor you should be targeting for your next complete upgrade, through the upcoming pages you should get the benchmarks to prove my point.

Intel designs 45 nanometres wide processor ‘Penryn’

In an age of microchips, Intel and IBM have come up with another wonder, the 45 nm processors. It is a tiny giant in the sense that this new Intel processor microchip, which is half the size of a postage stamp, is capable of containing 400 million transistors in it.
The 45 nanometres (billionths of a metre) wide processor has been given the code name of ‘’. Penryn is similar to the current processors as regards its availability in dual-core and quad-core versions.
Specifications about Penryn have not yet been revealed by Intel in details, however, this could be known that Penryn will feature increased L2 cache size and Streaming SIMD4 (SSE4) extensions. This change, according to Intel has been effected to increase the speed of media applications. Though at this stage any other architectural enhancement is not known about, yet reports have it that some other thermal improvements have been made.
The 45 nanometres wide processor Penryn will enable to make the transistors become much smaller in size, which in turn would double the total number of transistors in a particular space. As regards the speed, it was claimed that Penryn will be 20 percent faster than its predecessor, which indirectly means increase of efficiency. Further, this will help to curb power leakage by at least 80 percent. So Penryn in a nutshell means a package of benefits.
