On occasion this time, will discuss two main quad core computers launched by Intel and AMD. This quad-core computer chips based on Core micro-architecture technology `` latest. Not just low-powered but also gives high performance. But don `t be fooled into thinking that Kentsfield is energy-efficient computers in any way. Intel was the first to launch this computer under the name of Kentsfield, which is also called Core 2 Extreme QX6700 quad-core, and not less than 80% faster than Conroe or Core 2 Extreme X6800.
To speak in simple words, such as Kentsfield and other computers is not meant for ordinary people `s desk. They are more suitable for high-tech workstations and desktops. That would not be wise to think that the average customer who needs a computer for general applications like word, PowerPoint, or Internet games, etc., will go for a complex, complicated and expensive computer like this. For this purpose, there are various kinds of products made by Intel. In addition, because you had to guess now that the computer is a high-tech requires a lot of power and make practical use of this feature for people everywhere. Maybe it will take more research and modifications before quad-core computers have become popular as a laptop.
This is a computer with a 2.66GHz chip has a 1066MHz front-side bus (FSB) is ideal for users who need a heavy scientific calculations or very accurate. It is generally used in the field of actuarial science, digital content creation, financial applications and engineering analysis, such as CAD. Intel `s director of operations for the digital enterprise group, Mr Steve Smith, has stated that this computer will be faster quad core 58% crating systems for digital content, and for video, digital audio and photo editing.
Intel has launched a commercial version of the mainstream and this computer. This computer is known as the Core 2 Quad Q6600. It runs at 2.4GHz and is currently priced at around $ 210. This budget quad-core computer is expected to have a smaller thermal envelope, and will be at 105 watts compared to 130 watts of Core 2 Extreme QX6700 Kentsfield quad-core.
`S AMD Quad Core computer is built on 65mn process. They use a new technology called Silicon-on-Insulator process. This enables faster transistors that have lower power leakage to be easily used and unique feature is very helpful in reducing waste heat and power. To save more energy, the core of each computer is allowed to run on an entirely different speeds or can be turned off completely with the help of a new `` Enhanced Power Now feature. This computer is also packaged with `enhanced` crossbar switch that allows users to access various parts of the core at the same time. Some other important features include an integrated memory controller along with the latest `Direct Connect Architecture 2.0` `` enabling faster Hyper Transport speed.
Although this feature could extract exclamation of wonder and happiness of every geek but the fact remains that for the average PC buyer, this still means that Latin and Greek. Clearly, more core computers using this technology are on their way and will revolutionize the computer industry but it will be some time before people embrace this technology as part of their lives. Computer maker claims that in recent years the popularity of quad-core computers will triple itself.
