The Different Intel Core i3, i5, and i7

Intel has long been released processor is Intel's newest Core i7, i5, and i3 followed. Of particular interest will not be using later on Intel core 2 duo brand anymore and core 2 quad, while the Pentium and Celeron brand will be retained.

while for the Centrino brand they will use in their products based Wifi and Wimax, so again we are going ga nemuin notebook with Intel Centrino brand.

So what is the difference of these three new products? The point cores intended for Entry Level i3, i5 core for mid-level, while the core i7 for High Level.

All three will continue to be planted in desktop and notebook. In addition, the Core i5 and i7 adopt the "Intel Turbo Mode Technology" in which this feature will turn off unused cores while processing an application that requires only a single thread, while processing a single application thread, the processor will overclock the flow of data thread running on it so faster processing, whereas if the process is not a single thread applications, the core will come back to life.

The following description of more details about these three products:

Intel Core i7

Core i7 is itself a first processor technology with "Nehalem". Nehalem uses a new platform that really different from previous generations.

One is to integrate MCH chipset directly on the processor, not the motherboard. Nehalem also replace the function of the FSB to QPI (Quick Path Interconnect) which is more revolutionary.

Intel Core i5

If Bloomfield is the codename for the Core i7 is the codename for the Lynnfield Core i5. Core i5 is the value of the Core i7 series that will run on new Intel socket LGA-1156 socket is. Interested when I heard the word value? Exactly! Core i5 will be marketed at a price of around U.S. $ 186.

Excess Core i5 is the Northbridge chipset functions embedded in the processor core (known as the MCH on the motherboard).

Then the Core i5 motherboard that will use the Intel P55 chipset (mainstream class) will be seen without the presence of vacant northbridge chipset.

If the Core i7 Triple Channel DDR 3 uses, then the Core i5 Dual Channel DDR only use 3. The use of power is also reduced to 95 Watt.

P55 chipset supports Triple Graphic Cards (3x) with 1 × 16 PCI-E slot and 2 x 8 PCI-E slot. Core i5 on the same cache, 8 MB L3 cache.

Intel also launched Clarksfield, the Core i5 mobile version intended for notebooks. Socket to be used is mPGA-989 and the power required is quite small in the amount of 45-55 Watts.

Intel Core i3

Intel Core i3 is a variant of the value compared to the other two brothers. This processor will integrate the GPU (Graphics Processing Unit) aka Graphics On-board processor inside.

Claimed the same graphics capabilities with Intel G45 chipset GMA on. Additionally i3 will use a hybrid manufacturing, with a 32nm processor core, while the memory controller / graphics using 45nm. I3 product code is "Arrandale".
