Intel Core 2 Extreme QX6800 tests!

Intel fejrede påske ved at frigive deres nye monster; Intel Core 2 Extreme QX6800 - som man først havde forventet til sommer. Rygterne lød sig høre at den ville være tidligt undervejs, og nu er den her altså.

Den er allerede blevet testet af mange sites verden over, og vi bringer jer her et par artikler omkring den nye processor.



"The four-core QX6800 is better utilised when encoding DV footage into a smaller file via the DivX CODEC. As expected, it posts the fastest time we've seen in our labs. and is almost twice as fast as an AMD Athlon 64 X2 6000+, which, remember, is a dual-core CPU.

The effectiveness of a quad-core processor can be brought to bear with applications that are truly multi-threaded. Cinebench 2003 - a benchmark based on the widely-used CINEMA 4D rendering engine - returns a 70 per cent increase in performance when switching from dual-core X6800 to quad-core QX6800. Needless to say, the 2.93GHz-clocked QX6800 is the fastest we've tested."
