Intel Core Duo wipes floor with eighth generation CPU - TechAmok
Intel Core Duo wipes floor with eighth generation CPU - [hardware] 11:34 AM EDT - Jun,26 2006 - post a comment
The chaps over at
Digit-life reviewed the Core2 Duo processors in the form of the E6400 and
the E6700. The latter is a production line Core2 Duo, not an engineering sample.
The processors are compared to the FX62, the FX60 and the XE 965 - the results
never left any doubts! Conroe rocks!
On the whole, we can say that the new processors from Intel turned out even
more impressive than we expected. Considering that our expectations were quite
high. Looking at the results, we don't want to sing the praises, congratulate
Intel with the victory, laud the new core, etc. We'd rather look through the
diagrams once again to understand what the world giant of CPU building has
unleashed. What we'll have to live with :). Conroe and its successors are here
for a long time, that's obvious. The efficiency per GHz it demonstrated is not
just admirable - there is the reverse of the medal: such impressive results are
not obtained easily. So we cannot expect anything cardinally new for at least
three or four years. We'll see Conroes with increased clocks and probably with
larger caches. There will most certainly appear more cores. But the architecture
will hardly change.
What can we say about the architecture looking at the test results? Conroe
offers relatively low results in 3D modeling and CAD/CAE packages. Of course,
its results are still excellent for its clocks. But they are less impressive
than the others. So we partially confirmed the hypothesis that the classical FPU
in the new core... no, it's not "bad", but it's less perfect than the other
units. CPU RightMark and Adobe Photoshop CS2 also prove that. The manufacturer
will probably make up for this problem with higher clocks. Especially as the
clock margin is assumably large. The situation in 3D modeling and bitmap
graphics can be improved by increasing the number of cores - these algorithms
can be easily distributed between multiple cores.
Excellent results are demonstrated by the new core in data archiving, web-server
test, OCR, and games. Having analyzed this collection of tests, we can establish
a fact that Intel did well for memory and cache operations and well as for
"chaotic code" that used to stupefy the long-piped Pentium 4. In fact, the
company defeated AMD on its own field with its favourite weapon.
