Core i7 hits record

D0, which is considered a leader among the processors for desktop systems from Intel. As XbitLabs, it just works wonders, and if, before the last time AMD had some consolation that, they say, its Phenom II X4 processors are an excellent accelerating potential, after the arrival of Core i7 975 Extreme Edition D0, of the pride of little that is, writes Nordic Hardware.

It turns out, Core i7 975 XE audit D0 has a fantastic accelerating potential, and it easily could disperse up to 5 GHz, and the note on the air. For comparison, clocked Phenom II X4 955 can be raised to 4.14 GHz on air by increasing the operating voltage processor. Recall that the nominal clock frequency of the Core i7 975 XE D0 at 133 MHz higher than the Phenom II X4 955.

The results of testing Core i7 975 XE revision D0, conducted PcCriminal and Yoko, the two participants Xbit Labs, show that they really were able to disperse this processor up to 5015 MHz "on air". In doing so, they used a fan Thermalright Ultra 120. When the working voltage of 1.52 V and frequency 4750 MHz was obtained in the test result 1M SuperPi. During the tests the air temperature does not exceed 20 degrees Celsius.

Configuration of the test platform is as follows:

- CPU Core i7 975 ES
- Motherboard BioStar Tpower (0406)
- Fan Thermalright Ultra 120 RT
- Built into the body of the fan San Ace 102CFM
- RAM - Dominator 1866
- Graphics Card Radeon HD 4890
- SSD drive Transcend 32 GB
- Power Giga-EZ 1000 W

However, processors Core i7 audit D0 indeed work wonders. Of course, not everyone can disperse them to the frequencies, but now we know they have a very large potential.
