QM57 and QS57... same chipset, but one costs 10% more than the other... rofl... rip off anybody?
i dont get the memory speed cap either...
ddr3 800 is harder to find than ddr3 2200, and even the worst ddr3 chip out there can run ddr3 1333, easily... so why do they cripple their platforms like that? its not really hurting perf notably, but still... why cripple perf?
it seems like there is some cripple mania virus running through intel these days... x58 is crippled (no qpi multi below 18x), pineview is heavily crippled (ddr2, no pciE, no HD video), i3 is crippled (only 800 and 1066 and your forced to use intels igp)
im confused by anandtechs review...
1.) memory performance and latency is the same or worse than 775
2.) power consumption is higher than 775
3.) igp perf is much better than G45, about the same as 790 and 9400
now id conclude from that, that if i want a cheap basic system with igp, it makes more sense to buy a 775 or amd igp system. especially if you take into account that 775 and am2/am3 are cheaper.
but now, his conclusion is:lets look at different priorities here for different buyers:Quote:
If you're building something with integrated graphics, you want it to be a Clarkdale.
1.) lowest cost = 775 or am2/am3
2.) lowest power consumption = 775
3.) best igp performance = am2/am3
so how is clarkdale the best igp platform?
this one made me laugh out loud :D

seems anand hasnt heard of 32nm quads and six core 1366 cpus yet? :DQuote:
The funny thing is that P55 motherboards using an NF200 to provide triple CrossFire/SLI might actually be the way to go if you’re into competitive benchmarking!
I just need EVBOT :DQuote:

Now see the post i made above
That was my quote and made in the context of benching 3d mark 05 against the current Bloomfiled results. As always, you love to nitpick from your armchair. Something you've become notorious for actually.Quote:

With that combination, you get four cores instead of two, better band width, indeed an overall better system simply. A Core i5 is in the disk of moment of 1800SEK and for additional 300SEK you get a passive video card. The price of this package is then 100kr more expensive than buying Core i5 661 but you get the right considerably much better performance, which justifies the purchase. A bit more attractive price for the Core i5 661 was the price tag had been a bit under the Core in i5 750"
google translated...
The QPI scales really well:

Well the L3 performance vs the L2 performance is not that great added the fact that the i5's un core run's slower than the Nehalem.Quote:

IGP ~ 9400/790 but at lower energy consumption
Now the added Dolby modes are worth more than a penny, a integrated solution that clarkdale provides is good in that aspect you get a better performance than a E8xxx with a 3300 igp and this all with less enery req. than a E8xxx + lowend gpu or a Athlon II x4 + 790.
Pretty good IMO.
What???Quote:

i5 750 <3 :yepp:
However, it should be very much fun to bench clarkdales
Juicy internal details:
Clarkdale 32nm CPU - 81mm2 "But this does not have the PCIe or Memory controller"
Transistor Count - 383M
Propus 45nm CPU - 169nm "But includes memory controller does not have a internal PCIe"
Transistor Count - 300M
Propus has 83M less transistor's wow "This must be because of the L3" Other than that the PCIe and memory controller in the 45nm companion chip must be around 40-45m2 out of 114mm2 so 32nm seems working quite well...
Here's ours :)

You don't need LHE or EVbot ofr 7GHz. You just need a better chosen chip then Pt1t's, like allways :)
Thanks for using 550 but 720 BE is missing :DQuote:

What I'd like to see is how i5-6x0 @ 4.6~4.7GHz fares against i5-750 @ 4.0~4.1GHz because that's whereabouts these seem to clock at similiar voltage. :) Who gives a damn about the IGP and stock vs stock comparisions on this forum, I thought the only interest in these chips were due to the 32nm and OC edge. lol
The possibility of a 4.6GHz+ 24/7 clock at reasonable voltage sure is attractive.
What's striking me the most is the poor memory performance. :(
Of all the new reviews these look good since 720 BE is used

http://www.hardwarecanucks.com/forum...pu-review.html
Overall in games and overall performance x3 720 BE is very comparative. The 720 BE cost just $10 more than the Athlon II 630, but overall it seems like a good package waiting for the 725/730 BE C0
EVbot Help OC on eVGA motherboard to resolve Coldboot issue. Coldboot of -80° when you come from -196° isnt very friendly :DQuote:

Check xtreme overclocking section :) For some 3D benches 750 is at least 30% faster CPC. To match 4Ghz you would need like 5.2Ghz which is not happening stable on air/water :D For most 3d benches even 30% is not enough.Quote:

But if you could reach 6960MHz on LN2, then a better chip should be able to get 7GHz on LN2 with no EVbot, even if LHe and EVbot would make your like much easier :)Quote:

I reserve that judgment for a month or two, prices are still high (thought they already droped 10-20€, since the the 750 was 200€ when it was released and now is ~155€.)Quote:

Performance is quite similar in the apps Clarkdale is targeted at IMO. As such, performance overlap means pricing overlap. At this point my biggest concern is platform pricing since I have seen a number of H57 boards which sport a $200+ price tag.Quote:
