Intel Core i7 Quad-core i7-950 3.06GHz Processor BX80601950
Intel Processors
From the Manufacturer
---------------------
The Intel Core i7-950 processor combines the power of four 3.06
GHz computing cores into a single processor, guaranteeing enough
processing power for the most demanding applications. With 8 MB
of smart cache, the Core i7-950 processor ensures that you get
maximum responsiveness from your system, even when several
intensive programs run simultaneously. Compatible with
motoards based on the Intel X58 Express chipset, the Core
i7-950 processor takes your computing and gaming experience to
the next level.
Intel Core i7-950 Processor features:
* Four 3.06 GHz cores for better multitasking and multithreaded
performance.
* 8 MB of smart cache.
* Integrated memory controller delivers higher memory bandwidth.
* Quick Path Interconnect provides fast data transfer between the
processor and chipset.
With four cores in one processor, users will experience better
multitasking and multithreaded performance.

. Powerful New Microarchitecture Eliminates Slowdown
The i7 family is Intel's ship processor, and for good
reason. With the i7 family, Intel engineers invented a
revolutionary new style of microarchitecture. They replaced the
front side bus -- a longtime ste of processor design -- with a
new technology called QuickPath Interconnect (QPI). Using QPI,
the Intel Core i7-950 processor achieves unprecedented levels of
bandwidth, and can use its four computing cores to their maximum
potential. To put it simply, users will enjoy faster and more
streamlined processing than ever before. Your computer will
handle multiple projects and applications without the slowdown
you'd experience with a lesser processor.
Extremely intensive programs like high-definition media editors
will run more smoothly and responsively. And you'll be able to
experience next-generation games without frame-rate hiccups and
slowdowns.
New Technologies Boost Performance
The Intel Core i7-950 processor also makes use of several other
cutting-edge technologies:
* Turbo Boost Technology allows the processor to run up to 133
MHz faster when it's operating below power/thermal limits.
* Hyper-threading Technology enables more efficient use of
processor resources, making the most of highly threaded software
like media players and next-generation games.
* Smart Cache Memory increases available RAM resources, leading
to less lag while multi-tasking.
Media Editing and Sharing Easier than Ever
Whether editing high-definition videos, touching up family
photos, or splicing up music, the Intel Core i7-950 processor
provides the processing power needed. The processor's four cores
are optimized to keep up with the most advanced digital editing
software. It also accelerates DVD encoding and compression,
allowing you to easily share your HD home videos with everyone.
Unparalleled Gaming Performance
With the advent of next-generation games, PC gaming is more
immersive than ever. The latest games take advantage of
multi-threaded programming, allowing for more realistic graphics,
physics, and artificial intelligence (AI). But you need more than
just a good graphics card with high GPU output to fully
experience all these effects. Underlying the visual realism and
advanced AI scripts are thousands of high-speed calculations that
your CPU must process.
Fortunately, the Intel Core i7-950 processor is specifically
designed to handle these calculations. Using multi-thread
architecture, it has the ability to process thousands of
graphical characteristics at once, resulting in a smooth and
lag-free experience. Intel worked closely with CryTek -- the
developers of the advanced game engine behind such games as
Crysis and Far Cry -- to guarantee that gamers have an immersive
and lifelike experience.
The Intel Core i7-950 processor is backed by a three-year
limited warranty.
