#Intel core i5 2400 cpu world series#

So, Sandy Bridge? WhatвЂ™s new with this line of CPUs and is it time to upgrade? LetвЂ™s take a look at page two and see whatвЂ™s been improved! Questions or comments? To keep the CPU from being installed into the wrong socket Intel moved the alignment holes further towards the top of the package.Д¬an you find the missing pin? LGA 1155 Sandy Bridge is on the left, LGA 1156 Lynnfield is on the right. The package size is the same, though the shadow is deceiving. Which one is which? IntelвЂ™s new Sandy Bridge, Core i5 2500K is on the left while the i5 750 Lynnfield is on the right. On the AMD side we have the mighty Phenom II X6 1090T processor along with a pair of quad core offerings, the Phenom II X4 860 and Phenom II X4 975 Black Edition. For comparison weвЂ™re including an Intel QX6700 socket 775 CPU, Intel Core i5 661, Intel Core i5 750, and Intel Core i7 875k. The article youвЂ™re reading now will focus on the CPU performance of the Sandy Bridge Core i3/i5/i7 CPUвЂ™s. The chipset performance details as well as SLI/CrossFireX scaling can be found in our ASUS P67 launch article. Note that 1156 heat sinks will work on 1155!Д«efore you get lost looking for the H67 and P67 chipset information, weвЂ™ve split our review into two parts. Outgoing Lynnfield and Clarkdale CPUs are just a single pin different than an LGA 1156 socket though they look identical the two systems are not compatible.

Sandy Bridge has been wrestled into a new LGA 1155 socket.

As this is the second generation Core i3/i5/i7 CPUs the naming has changed accordingly to keep us confusвЂ¦I mean, to differentiate the new products! All Core iX models feature a 2xxx name, where the 2 denotes that it is the second generation Core architecture.ДЄ new socket? It wouldnвЂ™t be a new Intel product launch without a new chipset or new socket. For the visual folks like me, have a look at the image below to get an idea of where it lines up.ДЄs you can see, Sandy Bridge is placed just below the 6-Core Gulftown X58 platform. Sandy Bridge is IntelвЂ™s performance mainstream architecture, so it will occupy the heart of their lineup. Today Intel delivers again on their Tick Tock cadence with the launch of Sandy Bridge. Each launch keeps Intel ahead of the game, firmly perched at the top in terms of performance. Since then Intel has been following their вЂњTick TockвЂќ development model, delivering Core i7 Nehalem and Core i7 Gulftown along the way. Information in this table was retrieved from actual processors using CPUID instruction, and we also utilized internal timer to measure CPU frequency. As hard as it may be to believe, that was four and a half years ago. The table below compares support for x86 extensions and technologies, as well as individual instructions and low-level features of the Intel Core i5-2400 and Intel Core i5-3470S microprocessors.

It seems just like yesterday that Intel launched the Core 2 Duo series of CPUs and re-established itself as the king of the hill for x86 CPUs.
