Understanding Intel’s new technologies

| Thursday, April 23, 2009

The technology of Intel carries out the manner when it comes to the material from PC today. Unfortunately, the company is also good to the consumers diverting with its names of mark and innumerable labels. There are the i7, Viiv, a range of the �extreme� processors, like the duet of the core 2 and core quadruple 2. What makes it all the means? Lu above for some answers.



Q: What is that there is of nine about the piece of Intel i7, and is it interesting to pay extra a computer which has one?

A: the core i7, as Intel calls it, is the name of the new processor of the flagship of Intel. It makes a success of the line of core 2 of the processors, which will be eliminated.

The processors of the core i7 are all the pieces of quadruple-core, meaning that each unit has four cores of treatment. Among the many new devices of the pieces are the support of the memory of high-seed DDR3; a new interface of interconnection of QuickPath, which replaces the interface of bus of former part of the former generations; and technology �of pushed the turbo one�, which is a type of integrated functionality overclocking which makes it possible the pieces to function more quickly than their speed evaluated for periods of the heavy treatment.

The pieces i7 also assert some impressive devices of power-economy, as well. Each of the four cores can enter a mode of zero-power when it is not employed, of this fact lowering the power supply of the piece and the system as a whole.

In this moment the i7 is a piece of computer of office-only, but you can expect that Intel increases the devices of power-economy of the i7 in a nearest processor of book.

In terms of price, the i7 order approximately a premium of 30 percent above the pieces of precedent-generation, but the whole prices of system of the machines built around a i7 are harshly in conformity with mid- with the systems at end high which employed pieces of precedent-generation.

Are the systems i7 in value a price better quality? In a word, yes. In similar circumstances, the systems i7 carry out at least 30 percent faster than computers equipped with the pieces pareillement synchronized of quadruple of core 2. And with a system i7, you will have a certain measurement of defense against fast obsolescence. The new pieces thus use a casing different that the older processors of quadruple of core 2 make, the levellings from processor in bottom of the road with a computer i7 are not inadmissible.



Q: Which is the difference between the extreme pieces of Intel and its pieces of core of quadruple of standard?

A: the extreme� nickname applies to the pieces in each one of lines of office of the processors of Intel - dig duet 2, dig quadruple 2, and dig i7 - which is adapted towards enthusiasts of material. Consequently, the �extreme� pieces maximize what a processor in each line can do. They offer a memory more on board, or seals it, that other processors in the same line, and they communicate with the remainder the speed of the components of computer in top. Perhaps in a more important way to those which employ them, however, the extreme processors offer a �freed� multiplier, which allows enthusiasts with the overclock the pieces - or push them beyond their evaluated speeds - by adjusting synchronizations in the BIOS of the computer, or programs it installation.

The extreme pieces also order an extreme premium of the prices above other pieces in the same family of product. For example, Intel dig 2 extreme QX9770, which run each one of its four cores to 3.2 gigahertz and assert the mb 12 of hiding-place, of the details for close to US$1,500 - just for the piece. Being given the fast rate/rhythm of the change, and obsolescence, industry of technology, the premium of the prices of the extreme processors makes them a dubious value for the majority of the people.



Q: Which is exactly Intel Viiv? I have a digital video recorder which needs a PC with Intel Viiv to use a device.

A: Viiv is the name of mark that Intel chose to describe a combination of technologies which, together, are conceived to make it possible consumers more effectively to work with the multi-media one, including the video with high-definition. Thus, Viiv are adapted towards the GCV or the units exchanges of media which can be used in a certain capacity as digital video recorders. A specific whole of technologies - include duel or quadruple the pieces of core, high acoustics of definition, and some chipsets of Intel - combine to make a PC worthy of logo Viiv.

Viiv is an initiative of sale which is on the exit, however. Part of the reason is that much GCV sold today answers entirely the characteristics which were required for Viiv certification. If you have a device which requires supposedly a PC Viiv-loan and your computer is rather new, test it with your computer in any event. That will probably function.



Q: I am interested to buy a new laptop. Is there core a difference between the processors duels of core and 2 processors of duet?

A: It can have there. Processors initial duels of the core of Intel were called Core Duo. That the name of mark led to a new generation of the pieces doubled core 2, which come in two varieties: The duet of core 2 and dig quadruple 2. The duet of core 2 is a processor of duel-core, and the quadruple of core 2 is a unit of quadruple-core. �Core 2,� then, does not have any relation with the number of cores on the pieces; on the other hand, you can look at it as marks who indicates the second generation of processors multinucl�aires of Intel.
