Go to the next level of multi-core performance.
Intel Core i7 processors deliver an incredible breakthrough in quad-core
performance and feature the latest innovations in processor technologies:
Intel® Turbo Boost technology maximizes speed for demanding
applications, dynamically accelerating performance to match your workload—more
performance when you need it the most.²
Intel® Hyper-Threading technology enables highly threaded
applications to get more work done in parallel. With 8 threads available to the
operating system, multi-tasking becomes even easier.³
Intel® Smart Cache provides a higher-performance, more
efficient cache subsystem. Optimized for industry leading multi-threaded
games.
Intel® QuickPath Interconnect is designed for increased
bandwidth and low latency. It can achieve data transfer speeds as high as 25.6
GB/sec with the Extreme Edition processor.
Integrated memory controller enables three channels of DDR3
1066 MHz memory, resulting in up to 25.6 GB/sec memory bandwidth. This memory
controller's lower latency and higher memory bandwidth delivers amazing
performance for data-intensive applications.
Intel® HD Boost significantly improves a broad range of
multimedia and compute-intensive applications. The 128-bit SSE instructions are
issued at a throughput rate of one per clock cycle, allowing a new level of
processing efficiency with SSE4 optimized applications.

This thing is a monster! Runs smoothly on any application, any game, and anything else you throw at it. Im running it with the Prolimatech Megahalems and it keeps it very cool even overclocked to 3.8Ghz.

This is a very good processor that is very durable and very easy to OC and I'm lucky I have a chip that supports up to 4.5GHZ

I upgraded from a old Pentium M....and there is a major difference in speed and performance. I've compiled the linux kernel(2.6.29rc5) with no optimizations, took 20minutes..what used to take 2-3hours on my Pentium M. Managing multiple tasks is seamless, You can minimize out of a high demanding game open real heavy applications and return to the game with minimal lag. Down side? have to use DDR3? uh this isn't really a downside in terms of speed, it's just that you are force to use DDR3.
