Description
Intel's processor, Core i7, or I known it as monster or beast is a beautiful and awesome processor.
The reason I say the processor is awesome because:-
1. Outdated of FSB technology - Corei7 had replaced the FSB technology with QuickPath Interconnect which make the cores to run better.
2. Integrated with memory controller and triple-channel memory - max. 12GB RAM
3. Using Hyper-Threading (HT) Technology concept which is the previous processor used before, Pentium 4.
4. Built-in power management and overclocking - Compare with the previous processor, overclocking is bad for your processor. Now, Core i7 is aggresive enough to overcome power management. In the BIOS setting, user can set the setting into overclocking in certain situation and customize the thermal rating so it won't overheat.
