Intel Core i7 940 CPU Benchmark

Can’t wait for AMD’s Phenom II. I know it won’t perform anywhere as good as Intel’s Core i7 but price to performance ratio should prove favorable to AMD specially when we factor in motherboard costs.

I’m currently very, VERY content with my Compaq CQ40-107AU which lets me run all of AeriaGames MMO games like Shaiya, Twelve Sky, Shin Megami Tensei, and even Project Torque at their highest settings (except for anti-aliasing which is set anywhere from disabled to medium) at the laptop’s default 1280×800 resolution.

I hope AMD decides to further enhance their Dragon platform by creating an even more power efficient and over-clocker friendly motherboard which supports Hybrid Crossfire as either a graphic enhancing solution or as a power saving solution depending on the discrete GPU attached.

I use to immediately upgrade once a new generation intel CPU is around now I think I have to skip and wait for the next.

Its just that for the fast five years of upgrading I just barely notice any speed difference(in real word testing) specially in the field of multimedia and video production. IMHO.

well! indeed the intel i7 processor is a pretty package.

I thought this is best best for gaming. Very cool!

Good benchmark data from a local expert! Imagine having one of those in your machines – best way to save time!

oo nga bos abe, andre is right hehe =)

Well the Intel i7 is undoubtably fast, but its like price tage is off the scale….. woww.

I would recommend a comparable AMD phenom II which in its quad core level now…….

For me I would stick to AMD….. Intels are too expensive…. and you dont get what you pay for

(well that my opinion)

Dang! that’s the super i7. But i’d rather choose the latest AMD which is sufficient enough for a simple yet bloody (ab)user like me. indeed AMD enough can kick ass unlike i7 which is better yet only in my dreams as a middle income earner.
AMD phenom= somehow pang masa.
Intel i7= dream PC ng masa.
****MY OPINION****

The Intel Core i7 is now on top selling processor of Intel Corp. ever. because of its specialized components and I’m sure this is the new evolution of upcoming more innovative computers an introductory path that enables us to make more things efficiently..

well at current times its not practical to go buy a core i7 the price is too damn high….. and also with its other components like the motherboard…

hghss..

for now if I am going to build my own pc… i would choose a AMD based system….

for my motherboard i will go with any brand which has a 790fx chipset, a phenom 2 X4 black edition (its a cinch to overclock :)) 1000w power supply a radeon hd 4890 for maximum graphics performance, 500gb of hd, and 8gb of RAM (yeah im going for the 64bit os)……….

personally i don;t like intel’s they are extremely hot not enough performance to cost ratio and don’t easily overclock……

well that’s my opinion

peace everybody

take care and God Bless!

agree…why would i spend a lot for a rig that will be outdated after 2yrs…yes that is true…i got my rig(e7200,p35mobo with 9800gtx) and now new stuff are available for the same price as my rig a year ago…and they’re step higher…

well, its up to you if you want to waste money…

pls email me with the info i need. i wonder what is the best or if not the best processor or its counterpart with other brand with the lowest price.
thank you! – bong_be****@****.***

The Intel Core i7 might have performed a little bit better than the Phenom 9950 X4,but when it comes to the price of both,you know who outperforms who…It’s all about balance….

Intel core i7 processors have great performance as compared to others however it there is importance of individual requirement.
