Intel today announced the fastest mobile processor in the world. With the Core i7-940XM want to defend the performance crown in the mobile sector further, and offer enthusiasts the opportunity to get the most out of each piece of silicon out.
The Core i7 is a true mobile quad core processor, which is due to hyperthreading able to work off 8 threads simultaneously. The processor is clocked with 2.13 GHz default, but needs only a few nuclei, the remaining cores are clocked based on the Intel Turbo Boost Technology to up to 3.33 GHz. So that the CPU queue is always enough data to process, built one makes up a large 8 megabyte cache which large parts of the roughly 774 million transistors and a strong negative effect on power consumption. This comes with 55 watts of very high and is only recommended for mobile use should be very limited, the term of a corresponding notebooks under load are barely over an hour.
First laptop with the Core i7 940XM be expected for the three quarter of this year, the price is currently around $ 1000 and will probably fall little, as this symbolic price normal for Extreme Edition CPUs.
