Here we go i cant keep up anymore i have to go and look up what an i3 is meant to be now!
Im guessing basically a core2 with self ramping
Mactronix
I think it's like an i5, but without the dynamic overclocking or hyperthreading.
So like a Core 2 but.... well like a Core 2
Mactronix
Just finished checking and its just got the HT left from what i can find.
So all the usefull bits removed then
Mactronix
It's like Mazda, 3 , 5, 7.... hmm... whrs Core i6 at ?
Core i6...
Core i9 has 6 cores and hyperthreading, is that the i6 you were looking for?
It's going to have HT and Turbo Boast. Otherwise you'd buy a Phenom II or Athlon II.
