What is faster than Intel Core i3 or Core i5? Why is Core i7 so expensive? Where should the Pentium go? Intel Celeron and Pentium processors: new Ivy Bridge

13.7.2005, 20:28

I can’t solve the problem like this, which percentage is better, take Pentium 2.4E or Celeron D340, the price is approximately the same, but what axis to take ??? I don’t know) I want for igor!
Please, please, take your mother and take it like this, my work is no longer necessary, it would not be expensive, but with gusto))

13.7.2005, 21:09

I read it) thanks Xandras! for me
How can I understand for Igor? less ts_kavo chi will be yak_s perevagi in Celeron 2.9 over the stump 2.4 yakshcho will be great) ????

13.7.2005, 21:27

Seleron - same seleron, not working at any frequency
stench stand singly the same (sil 2.9 and stump 2.4), vibir unequivocally behind the stump
and maybe for AMD64 times about igri rozmov

Take a Pentium, you won't have mercy. Just wondering, what a stump you take.
Taking a bunch of Pentium 2.4E 533MHz, 1024Kb. No Hyper-Threading, no memory supported at the maximum frequency of 400MHz (max. was 333MHz).
Please change to Pentium 2.4C 800MHz, 512Kb. CASH at 2 times less, ale tire is better.

The result can be tested on the productivity test in SiSoftware Sandra Professional 2005. The characteristics of the reference data are blue color on the diagram. Chervoniy is a streaming system that is being tested.

Vgorі: Pentium 2.4C 800MHz, 512Kb
Bottom: Pentium 2.4E 533MHz, 1024Kb

14.7.2005, 18:33

artist, 2.4E will be better for everything at 533 tires, if you don’t know at 800, then you can marvel at 2.8 at a price as the price is not great. Well, Celeron is not critical either ... But Celeron 340 will be better in video coding.

14.7.2005, 18:40

Utter, having written the strum very well, I still don’t understand from these diagrams which one is better C or E ?? (because everything is so foldable, it's just that I'm not that good at all)

Added:
FrK!~!~!, well, I don’t know, I’m looking for hard prices, and there may be $ 44 retail between 2.8E and 2.4E

14.7.2005, 20:33

The blue color on the diagrams may be the same rozmіr
Chervoniy behind the diagram in the mountains behind the three displays is richer, lower at the bottom, which testifies to the greater productivity of Pentium 2.4C 800MHz, 512Kb.

Until the speech, zovsіm forgetting. I am still trying more. Result axis:

First step: Pentium 2.4C 800MHz, 512Kb
Temples: Pentium 2.4E 533MHz, 1024Kb

3DMark 2001: 7808 (7766) +0.54%
3DMark 2003: 2136 (2053) +4.04%
3DMark 2005: 828 (803) +3.11%
AquaMark3: 16561 (16148) +2.56%
Well, the showcases of these tests are not too rich, because the test of the best video.

SiSoftware Sandra 2004 SP2:
CPU arithmetic test: 10297 (8129) +26.67%
Multimedia processor test: 42686 (29561) +44.40%
Test bandwidth memory: 5949 (5006) +18.84%
And the axis here is the difference. Up to 44% faster for Pentium 2.4C 800MHz, 512Kb.

14.7.2005, 21:40

IMHO seleron for Intel, the same as OKA for KAMAZ.
The stump has more productivity.

14.7.2005, 22:00

Thank you people with a stump, I understand everything) And how to repair the same stump
AMD ATHLON 64 2800+

14.7.2005, 22:03

That IMHO is better for an athlone ... I can’t argue my thought, but the axis fell in love with me alloni and that’s it.

14.7.2005, 23:33

artist If athlone64 3000+, then on 939 sockets - approximately 130
Well, the motherboard will be installed on nforce 4 or 3. The system will be more promising, lower intel on 478 sockets.

The axis itself at once close the topic more beautifully.

Why do you need to help the people who are virishit, what are the brothers ...

If anyone has an AMD ATHLON 64 2800+, let's test the processor with SiSoftware Sandra 2004 SP2 or 2005 and see the results here, as if I had killed it.

I remember such a video from TomsHardware.com, Pentium and Athlon 64 were tested on different add-ons.

So the axis in games is smaller than Pentium, and in most cases it is Athlon 64.
Until then, as far as I know, there will be problems with the confusion of some old games on 64-bit platforms.

yakraz navpaki

the result will be known later, for whom the Pentium test will be possible, as in the case of other, more aggravated

required in game tests

Hemp is zvichayno shortening, then the celeron will be cheaper. I have a seleron, and I am completely satisfied with it.

15.7.2005, 10:20

Axis to that, I asked you to close the topic. Navit through those that are offtopic pishov. Let me tezh pochyus sperechatis? Sandra, before the speech, nіfіga pіd іntel іѕ nοt hit, thаt. Just synthetics - won and synthetics in Africa. On athlon it’s better to rub in another half, on p4 it’s better to encode video, but in what way does it show the essence of the problem? Can we talk about dual cores?
No, it's all bullshit.
Pentium is better than celeron at higher frequencies. Take pratsyuvati at the computer, if, under the high pressures of the wines, you don’t start to chide, but you behave strangely. The blue-red label of Intel inside is still receptively looking, I want the white-blaky one to be kind, but not the flooring. Imovirno, the seleron is better than the wife, but there are three ALEs here. In a first way - it's only timidly, in a different way, at higher frequencies, a small cache is even more indicated, but in a third way, is it necessary?
A couple of comments on Utter's post.
Northwood (and the same name as Pentium 2.4C 800MHz 512Kb) today it is unrealistic to know for sale more low, as it is only super lying around, but even more may not shy away. Item is different. in Prescott'i yakraz є NT, in what you can know at once for sale. Third point. So, prescotty get warmer more, so, don’t start a swedish, but an hour and more norfwoods ... but talk about swidkishness in games for showing off in sandria .... you know, my old celeron [email protected] behind the shows in synthetics, often bypassing the 1Ghz athlone ... but in real add-ons, say who is the leader?
І axis screen on finishing...
I'll tell you, let's say that the "pivnіchniy lіs" is better, let it go. But let's still think three times not in the abstract "what a percent is better", but still concretely. May 2005 rec. New video cards under agp (brand names) will not be released, nothing new under the same old architecture will not be released. You don't mind foolish buying a "new" computer, which in advance is already "old" ?! Especially vrakhovyuchi, scho SUCH FOR THE SHIFT AND IN PARAMETERS (specially paying attention to the word is the same, then I’ll turn around here) will be more costly and more expensive, then rubles by 200, and in more cases it’s cheaper! Do not believe? Shall we? Let's go Celeron 2.66. and there and there varity ~2600. +/- 20 rubles. (Before speech, є options, if 775 is cheaper to navit for rubles 100 and more.) Motherboard. 2700 and 2900 for P4P800SE and P5GPL is true (for example, GPL is a lower class... but the problem is that the functionality of the lower class is no longer the same...). І videocard. Naturally 6600. 3800 and 3300 for AGP and PCI-E option is reasonable. They took away the savings on mb in 200 rubles, and the cost of video in 500! Tobto. NEW PLATFORM appeared at 300 rubles. CHEAPER!!!
Ale trochs about the bag ... I turn to the cob of the povnyannya ... it’s not for nothing that the seleron 2.66 is taken - the lowest for 775 ... it doesn’t seem to be less, it’s clear that it’s weaker, then at 775 you can’t take it anymore ...
Vzagali, artist, then, at my glance, there are more nizh pіdіdut tsі statti.

Previously, the productivity of a computer was based only on the processor. The selection of the required model is primed on the generation of the processor - what is newer, the frequency is more expensive. At the same time, Intel products are produced by three generations of Celeron, Pentium and Core, the skin of them is divided into families, and the stench is divided into groups.

Productivity

Chips "Celeron" or "Pentium" may have unique characteristics, to cope with these other tasks. Ale, the speed of the robotic computer is to lie down as the characteristics of the processor, and y in the richness of the chinniki.

Productivity of the molding machine:

• processor - cache, clock frequency, number of cores;
• video card and graphics system;
• cooling system.

Cache is an area of ​​super-storage memory for saving the most important portions of the processor's requests. The search for any information starts from the analysis itself. Although no required data was found, the selection is taken from operational memory. The hour of access to cache memory is significantly less, lower to RAM, which leads to a significant increase in system productivity.

RAM saves all information flows processed by the processor, slots are installed. The processor model determines the characteristics of the modules, which are to be used, depending on the size, between expansions.

The clock frequency depends on the number of vibrations. The frequency of 3.4 GHz means that the processor processes 3 billion 400 million cycles per second. Vplivaє on the productivity of the computer zagal, ale є virishalny chinnik.

For the sake of rich nuclear power, the robot of special software is easier - Igor, a program for robotics from media. Software processes are stored in warehouses, which are fixed by the skin core. However, the idea that 2 cores of 2 GHz each is equal to one of 4 GHz is respected by the pardon.

The video card is valid for video viewing. As soon as it is installed, then it is necessary to open the windows of the central processor. Otherwise, the graphic system has been built into the function. The performance of the card is affected by a few parameters. The width of the bus memory vіdpovіdає for processing the song number of battles of information per clock. The frequency of the core and memory are added to the speed of the processing of information. The texture and pixel speed of the filling are measured in millions of pixels per second and show the amount of information that is displayed. For quick molding trivial graphics zastosovuetsya different 3D-scrubbers.

In such a rank, apparently, what is more beautiful - "Intel Pentium" or "Celeron", it's hard to finish. For whom you will need a detailed pairing of models.

Different types of computers

Pairing processors "Pentium 4" or "Celeron 4" will help you understand how much more difficult it is for some models of computers. All computers can be divided into three categories:

1. Remaining row of the list. Such laptops are characterized by having a large amount of operational memory hard drive, the minimum number of items in the set. Models equipped with a stainless steel operating system linux chi dos. Such a processor has a low clock frequency and cache volume, and the number of cores rarely exceeds 2. text editors, browser, launch programs and light games.
2. The next model range is supported by an increase in the volume of the hard drive and the expansion of the operational memory. Prote іnshі characteristics are overwhelmed by the colossal equal - bezkoshtovna OS, weak processor.
3. The top has tight models maximum number in memory of a zhorsky disk. Hard video card and processor to cope with any kind of thunder highest capacity. The complete set includes a gaming mouse and a keyboard, a licensed operating system.

Pentium chi Celeron?

All current processors are powered by two companies - Intel and AMD. The family "Celeron" or "Pentium" lie before Intel.

The name of the Celeron is the Pentium Celeron. Vkazuє, scho ur_zana model i is recognized for weak computers. This hierarchy was saved earlier, but at the same time the difference between them is minimal. Families are practically on the same level, but Celeron still has Pentium in some parameters.

The first processor "Celeron" was based on "Pentium 2", and then the models Celeron M and Pentium M were based on the same cores. Model range assigned to mobile PCs.

Silvermont Bay Trail-D

Choti-core processor "Silvermont" Bay Trail with 22 nm architecture. mobile outbuildings and tablets. The clock frequency varies in the range from 2 GHz to 2.41 GHz, є 2 caches of 1 MB, їх varіst - from 70 to 80 $ (4500 rubles). Rick release - 2013 rock. The video card is installed up to 800 GHz.

Virobniki essentially increased productivity and energy efficiency. Single-chip chips "Silvermont Intel Pentium" or "Intel Celeron" can also be used for netbooks and nettops.

• J1750 core;
• J1800 core;
• J1850;
• J1900.

• J2850
• J2900.

Intel Pentium J2850 - chip for nettops and PCs. The main parameters are on the level of "Celeron".

Haswell

The release of Haswell with 22 nm technology is on the cob of earth 2013. "Haswell" is intended for ultrabooks with low power consumption. The suffix U means less energy, and Y means the lowest possible.

All models are dual-core, the clock frequency of the processor is not changed.

• 2955U;
• 2957U
• 2961Y;
• 2980U;
• 2981U;
• 2970M.

The found model costs $75 (4650 rubles) І tse - 2970M with a frequency of 2.2 GHz. Vaughn showed up at 2014 roci. Stepping behind the road є 2970M. Wishla at the door earlier, cost 9 dollars more expensive - $ 86 (5330 rubles). The most expensive version cost $ 137 (8500 rubles), Won appeared in the fall of 2013 - 2980U with a frequency of 1.6 GHz.

• 3556U;
• 3558U;
• 3560M;
• 3560Y;
• 3550M;
• 3561Y.

3560M is one of the biggest models. Viishla in 2014 roci, її varіst 134 $ (8300 rubles) - Same as 3550M. Between them is the difference in clock frequency: the 3550M has one tenth less - 2.3 GHz. The price of other models is $171 (10,600 rubles). The 3561Y and 3560Y have a frequency of 1.2 GHz, the 3558U and 3556U have a frequency of 1.7 GHz.

Haswell for PC

Processors "Pentium" or "Celeron Haswell" are approved for installation in desktop computers. That is why their characteristics are much tighter than those that are installed in laptops.

• G1820
• G1820T;
• G1820TE;
• G1830;
• G1840;
• G1840T;
• G1850.

• G3220;
• G3220T;
• G3240T;
• G3250;
• G3258;
• G3260;
• G3260T;
• G3420T;
• G3430;
• G3440T;
• G3450;
• G3460;
• G3470;

Processors with suffix T are highly energy efficient. They have a memory low frequencies against given models.

Airmont Braswell

Braswell showed up for Haswell. The change in technology to 14 nanometers made it possible to accommodate more elements and a greater number of cores. The first laptops entered the market in 2014. Similar architecture is recognized for installation in laptops.

Line of Celeron processors:

• N3000;
• N3050;
• N3150;

The first two models have 2 cores each, and the N3150 has 4. The base frequency of the processor varies in the range from 1.04 GHz to 1.6 GHz. The most powerful are up to 2.16 GHz.

The Pentium only has one 4-core N3700 processor clocked at 1.6 GHz and capable of clocking up to 2.24 GHz. Offending families є 4-stream z graphic system Intel HD Graphics.

The Pentium has two 1024 KB caches, while the Celeron has only one. Ale Celeron is cheaper - its price is $107 (6600 rubles), and to buy a Pentium you need to pay $60 (3700 rubles). All models have 5 usb-ports, 2 memory channels of 8 GB are supported.

Celeron N3000 installations in mini-PC Gigabyte Brix GB-BACE-3000 and ASRock Beebox.

Broadwell Cherry Trail

Processors "Celeron" or "Pentium" Broadwell can have 2-processor cores. Designed for the installation of NUC compact desktop computers (the next generation of laptops).

Voni є nettopi (min_ PC) to vykonannya incoherent tasks - robots and navchannya. Rick release - 2015 Rick.

Laptops of this architecture have 256 KB of L2 cache per core and 2 MB of L3 cache. Graphic subsystem -

Celeron models:

• 3205U;
• 3215U;
• 3755U;
• 3765U.

3215U and 3755U base frequency- 1.7GHz, and 3205U - 1.5GHz. The highest value for the 3765U is 1.9 GHz.

• 3805U;
• 3825U.

Pentium and Celeron have two cores and 2 threads, for example, the 3825U model has 4 cores and 4 threads. All Pentiums have a frequency of 1.9 GHz.

Broadwell processors have no ability to overclock. The suffix U is to say that the stench is put up to the line of economic models. They are intended for laptops of cob line and super-thin ultrabooks.

Pentium Gold and Celeron G Series

The line for laptops "Pentium" or "Celeron" was introduced in 2018. The stinks give to the rest of the vimog, obviously, є dosit hard and productive. For example, the Gold G5600 Processor can have 2 cores at 3.90 GHz with a 4 MB cache. Graphics installed - Intel® UHD 630.

Chips Celeron series G of the same time may have less cache - only 2 MB. But everything else is supported by Pentium - Intel® UHD 630, 2 cores. Trochs are charged for the clock frequency - 2x3.20 GHz.

Processor Pidbir - ce key solution, in view of some far-fetched practice of a personal computer, it is important for Tom here to understand some of the results in view of the new score and be judged for greed:

1. Virobnik.
2. Generation of processors.
3. Lines of representations of processors of the same generation.

So, as it is planned to win a computer, not for computer games i do not push harder software security, then the processor is from the average range of characteristics of the whole range. In times of rich tasking (rich flow) and / or with a high quest for powerful programs or games, without a doubt, you need to raise the bar when choosing and purchasing a processor.

The central processor's attachment - I'll build it like a smut of the heart, I'll build it, I'll defend it for rozrahunki. Incorrect selection of the CPU with a hard video card and / or a high-frequency one operational memory, it is not possible to develop the potential until the end, but rather galmuvatime productivity.

Your article will be given short description the same generation of the Intel brand of such microprocessors, such as Pentium and Celeron.

Pentium generation processors

Fifth-generation Pentium microprocessor generations are spun by Intel Corporation 03/22/1993. The stench is recognized for the vykonannya more serious tasks and є richly swidshe, the lower line of Celeron. Benefits: such a frequency has been promoted and the versatility is acceptable, which should be deposited in the form of a change. The stench is not aggravated for rozvag (nowadays powerful igors), but they feel full of it, maybe two cores and no more.

It's better, obviously, to buy a microprocessor with a Pentium line, because the wine is tighter, and with a long-term perspective. On the official website, there are 36 different processors, with minimum characteristics such as:

• 6 GHz - base frequency.
• 2 megabyte cache-memory.
• 2 cores.
• 2 streams.

This series has an integration module - Intel HD, which allows you to practice without a video card (external). Allow me to spare a penny, as it is not necessary to have a lot of effort for working with programs. And marvel at the film chi play just a group not stock problems.

Celeron generation processors

The great homeland of low-budget microprocessors is the Intel Pentium Celeron. Celeron - tse urizana and cheap version to Pentium. Wine will be optimal for low-powered people who may have a small budget.

Personal computers based on such CPUs are suitable for office work, shards provide all the necessary functionality for surfing in to the all-world spider, revisiting films and works in text editors. Vіdrіznyayutsya lower productivity, equal to the tighter line. change the L2 cache-memory (of a different level) to the bus frequency. So just like on Pentiums, the internal module is Intel HD.

There are 32 processors on the corporation's website, with minimum characteristics such as:

• 5 GHz - base frequency.
• 1 megabyte cache-memory.
• 2 cores.
• 2 streams.

Below is a ranking table for the minimum standard characteristics, which shows the main and dominant moments:

Also, from the table above, it is clear that the characteristics of the mayzhe are identical and the difference in price becomes sound troch more than 15-20%. To protect as much as possible, use the OEM version, as it includes one processor (no cooler, boxes, etc.). The maximum OEM package is the processor + a bag or a cardboard (plastic capsule). This is the key to nutrition in the fact that for some purposes it is planned to win personal computer? V_dpov_vshi on the new one, you can start choosing the goods.

After thermal imaging Pentium and Celeron, the rest will be with a larger winning light. The generation of Celeron is famous for its longevity (7-10 years), because it has a low thermal output, and the need for a block of life and the motherboard is reduced to a minimum. Celeron is normally operated with a standard cooler. Against the stream, ring out to cool down. Navit rozіgnany up to 4.4.GHz vіn good trimaєtsya without water cooling. Do not install a factory fan on the Pentium, think over the ventilation system of the case itself, so you don’t plan to do overclocking.

Vіdminny variant - buy Celeron instead of Pentіum, and at retail prices between them, dodatkovo pridbati SSD. Such a system is practicable on the basis of speed, regardless of its low price.

Vimiryuyuchi showings on the tests of today's Intel Pentium and Celeron can be seen that Celeron behaves badly productivity, expansion, cache-memory for Pentium. For office or home koristuvannya without stress navantazhen vіn miraculous pіdіyde. If you have a gaming personal computer, don't hesitate to take a Pentium, which has a Turbo-overclocking mode.

Hello everyone. Really, the difference between Celeron and Pentium is minimal. Ale richly koristuvachіv zі can not wait for me, saying Celeron is richly weak and in principle there is a piece of truth ... And all that was so much earlier. If the 775 socket is or the old 478 socket, then at that time it was mainly two mothers, the Pentium and Celeron. I can't wait for the remote robots on 775 sockets, the stench showed up later.

Well, that's the axle. The axis of the Celeron is too weak. But starting from the 1156 socket, everything started to change, now Celeron is close to Pentium for productivity and performance on the forums to please you, because the pressure may be the same. Ale, I don’t care so much, after all, Stump will be better ... the new one has 3 mb of cache, and Celeron has 2 mb.

And the whole point is that push processors OVER Stump appeared at 775 sockets (albeit not immediately, but with the release of new chipsets), even though they were so called quadri, but the difference between Stump and Celeron was still bula. But at the same time, it’s already minimal. technical process, modern technologies, Today's Celeron (1150 socket) is tighter than the old top-end Pentium 4 EE (775 socket) for a few times, who would think for a moment ...

Therefore, the difference between Penk and Celeron is in the region of 10-15%, or approximately, but not more than 20%, for sure. In principle, how and price

But the truth is, Celeron has one such fat plus - the wine is really colder, so that the wine gets warmer less, lower Stump, and in principle, you can beat the cold with passive cooling. And if so, it is necessary to think over the ventilation in the case, but all the same, in the kit with Celeron, it’s not just that there is a radiator with a fan.

Everything I write here, well, about those that the difference is small, but I can do everything on the basis of modern processors starting from socket 1156. I’ll tell you a secret, Celeron G3900, and tse 1151 socket, frequency 2.8, cache 2 mb axis, wine will be harder to navigate a 775 socket Q9650 core, but still the Yorkfield core…!

I honestly don't know what to say. In my opinion, there is a difference in price between the current Stump and the current Celeron, which is a better difference in productivity. Also, the model Penka, yakі can be broken, for example, the model Pentium G3258. Rozignany Penek will already be a head higher for Celeron, beat him. The price of such a model, as it supports the unlocking (that is, the presence of an unlocked multiplier), is 10-15 dollars higher. Ale over there varte, turn ...

The axis, for example, for whom the Celeron test, however, does not reach the level of Penka:

First of all, you can not remember the difference, especially as the computer is assigned to the office.

One more test and here the situation is repeated, the difference is small:

One more test:

The tests themselves are not particularly important here, smut, what the processors are here, so the information is real in order to understand the difference.

And the axis here is amazing, Celeron 1037U, Celeron J1900, those processors are already walking in their souls, well, they are soldered, the stench is not for great computers, but for media centers. Vlasne to that stench and program the floor Celerons:

Axial WinRAR test (in the archiver, there are productivity tests):

Well, I guess, now you know that the difference in price may be the same as the difference in productivity. For an office PC, or just for a home PC, I took Celeron. If you need a gaming PC, but you don’t have a lot of pennies, then take only that Pentium, which can be broken, for example, models G3260, G3258, G3420, all 1150 socket. Axis shown by CPU-Z pro G3420:

Just get 4.5 GHz here and turn it around, don’t get hot. І for whom you can do without water cooling, it is enough to have a decent radiator and a decent cooler

Following the announcement of the LGA1155 platform, Intel has methodically upgraded processor lines. Based on the top CPUs, the compiler is shifted to Sandy Bridge and available solutions - Core i3 and Pentium. Remaining indications for cob and middle rіvnіv systems. Models of a variety of about $ 100 were always objects of sawn respect from the side of the coristuvach, like they sounded shukati. optimal options when completing the system. Often, people who choose their own processor from a given price category, go to the right food to get more, lower, who is ready to pay, be it the price maximum productivity. Let's marvel at how new Intel products are built in line with their predecessors and alternative solutions from the main competitor.

From a technical point of view, the most important features of Core i3 in Core i5 / i7 chips are those that are based on a core of a dual-core crystal, and not a choti-core with deactivated counting blocks. So no cunning tricks with unlocking can not be done here, the Intel chips did not give such a possibility before. The area has changed from 216 to 131 mm2, hence, the workpieces from one silicon wafer appear significantly larger, and the consistency of their workmanship is lower. Clearly, Intel has a chance to promote the distribution of prices, continuing to make money on budget processors.

What changes have you made to the functional equipment? The amount of cache memory L1 and L2 is identical for all models on Sandy Bridge (64 KB and 256 KB per core), and the third-level buffer axis in Core i3 has changed proportionally to the number of cores - from 6 to 3 MB. Compact crystal, based on 32-nanometer technology, allows you to save on good energy savings. TDP for Core i3 of another generation becomes 65 W, the same as for the predecessors from the Clarkdale family given parameter buv at the borders 73 watts.

The crystal is integrated with Intel HD Graphics 2000 from 6 counting units. The nominal frequency of the video core is 850 MHz, and for an hour of work it can dynamically increase to 1.1 GHz. Quick Sync is a powerful tool for transcoding video. The advantage of Core i3 is also Hyper Threading technology, which adds a couple of virtual ones to two physical cores. In rich streaming add-ons, this function sometimes plays an important role, allowing efficient use of CPU resources. Also, it is significant the presence of the processor's ability to implement instructions from the AVX (Advanced Vector Extensions) set, which, with a proper optimization step, will help to speed up the calculation with a point that float, as if actively working in a multimedia software.

Unfortunately, Core i3 does not support the technology of dynamic increase in the frequency of processor cores turbo boost, which is compensated by the singing world with high staff values. To fix the position of the CPU of this family, here are also the daily instructions for AES encryption.

The production line of processors is composed of several models. The young Core i3-2100 with a clock frequency of 3.1 GHz is sold for $117. The Core i3-2120 runs at 3.3GHz and costs $20 more. Intel has also shipped an economy version of the i3-2100T with a 35W TDP. As a rule, a change in CPU power goes beyond the reduction in operating clock frequency and power voltage. On the motherboards oh, that allows you to independently conduct downclocking and change the voltage below the recommended values, often you can achieve similar results. But on the other hand, if this is not possible, the purchase of energy-efficient models will be true. Core i3-2100T operates at 2.5 GHz, and the frequency of the graphics unit is reduced from 850 to 650 MHz, with which it can dynamically increase to 1.1 GHz.

Chips with energy changes will be needed for systems with compact enclosures, which may have a small volume and, apparently, an opportunity to select a cooling system.

Okremo in the series cost Core i3-2105. Qia model May have identical clock speeds to the i3-2100, but other devices in the family are powered by more productive Intel HD Graphics 3000 graphics. In its own line, the left part of the mission is introduced into the number of blocks. Due to the fact that most budget models will have HD Graphics 2000 with 6 blocks, not 12, Intel retailers dutifully respected that deactivation of half of the counting is banal - not a rational solution. Therefore, from a technological point of view, the vision of the mother showed two designs of dual-core crystals. The version with more tight graphics is three times larger for the area (149 mm2), but for equal energy supply it also fits into 65 watts. As we could have changed earlier, the productivity of HD Graphics 2000 and 3000 is noticeably improved: it is stale in the day, the rest shows up 1.5-2 times better, adding up to the serious competition of budget discrete video cards. Overpaying $14 for modifications with larger swedish graphics would be a big deal for that one, as you can't win video integration, and HD Graphics 2000's capabilities are not enough for transferring jobs.

Dual-core processors can be introduced to mobile solutions under the Core i7 brand, among desktop Core models with the Sandy Bridge architecture, it is easy to read the segmentation for the number of Hyper blocks (physical and virtual cores 4 Core i7): i5 - 4 cores without HT, Core i3 - 2 cores and Hyper Threading.

Pentium

As if tumbling down the mental scale of differentiation of today's Intel processors, Pentium chips follow Core i3. With the advent of the Core architecture, the legendary brand victoriously designed to achieve affordable CPUs with traditionally excellent price / performance ratios. Modernization of the line has been suggested for a long time. For the rest of the hour, models for the more up-to-date LGA775 platform were no longer just able to stream the onslaught of low-cost AMD solutions, especially competing with the tri-core Athlon II X3, which, at a similar price, often pushed higher swidcode. Pentium on the Clarkdale core for the LGA1156 socket did not gain a significant width. Rinkov's situation at the time of the release of the platform was such that Intel positioned itself ahead of it as a solution for systems of the middle and high class. Therefore, after the expansion of the assortment of processors, the minimum quality of the input ticket was left to be high. The cost of the most affordable Pentium G6950 is about $100, which is expensive for a PC on the cob. It's not easy to admit that Pentium for LGA1156, two crystals (CPU and GPU) side by side, may be more compatible. Therefore, seriously reduce the price for data processors and finish it smoothly. Until then, whoever wants to talk about budgetary chips of mass production. That pay cheaper for $80-90 for LGA1156 actually appeared less after the announcement of Sandy Bridge.

Updated modifications of the Pentium came about as a result of the easy simplification of dual-core chips, which are developed for the Core i3. For us, the Pentium has used Hyper Threading technology, as well as the ability to win AVX instructions. The size of the cache memory is identical to those for the Core i3. The new chips of the Pentium family also have the Intel HD Graphics 2000 graphics installed, although the margin is quite low for the promotion of proprietary technologies. Zocrema, Quick Sync is not used here, the function of visual reduction of Intel Clear Video HD video and the display of stereoscopic images (Intel InTru 3D).

At the initial stage, the line includes several models: Pentium G850 (2.9 GHz), G840 (2.8), G620 (2.6 GHz) and G620T (2.2 GHz). It doesn’t matter if you guess, the rest is up to economical modifications, the energy efficiency of which does not exceed 35 watts. The clock frequency has been reduced to 2.2 GHz, as in the energy-efficient Core i3-2100T model, the nominal frequency of the graphics core has also been changed to 650 MHz with a limit value of 1.1 GHz.

As a matter of fact, the new Pentium processors in the core i3 are mainly improved in terms of functionality, but the basic characteristics are also responsible for ensuring a healthy level of productivity. The microarchitecture of Sandy Bridge, which is victorious, promises a good increase in swedcode, in which we will try to reconsider for an hour of practical tests. As for the price, then in wholesale batches the CPU range of the family lies in the range of $64–86. It will be a good thing, but it is obvious that the Pentium will cost less than the Core i3, but also the predecessors from the Clarkdale core.

Updated Pentium models were presented recently - for example, grass. I practically immediately showed up at the retailer for sale in Ukraine. Intel may good practice to the market of their goods, so that they become available to purchasers, either at once from a global presentation, or in the shortest term, after it.

Overclocking is popular among enthusiasts. Htos such a rank helps to increase the productivity of the system, supporting a chergovy upgrade. For those who have a hobby, sports or a way to satisfy the needs, doslidivshi possibilities and attachments of the CPU potential.

It's a pity, those who like to experiment with overclocking once check on a small increase. Vrakhovuyuchi specifics of the robotic clock generator in the new platform and the blocking of the processor multiplier in the examined chips, it is obvious that the field for maneuver is seriously limited. Navit unimportantly at a relatively high multiplier factor (+100–150 MHz) everything that can be used to increase the bus speed, which you carry, up to 103–106 MHz, on some of the latest motherboards, save the stability of the work. Insanely, the prices are not those showings that I would like to take away, especially looking at those older Sandy Bridge models often take frequencies of 4500 MHz and more. Unfortunately, the new Pentium and Core i3 are not recognized for overclocking. With this fact, you will be able to reconcile and protect when buying. At the same time, it’s also important not to forget that given the chips to induce in the regular mode, remember productive for the front, so that the difference in frequencies is not significantly reduced.

Modifications from the unlocked multipliers of the Core i3 and Pentium, in our opinion, can not be checked. Such models of overclockers with index K will be available only in the lines of more expensive Core i5/i7.

As the test results demonstrate, the new Intel processors in the middle price category in terms of productivity may be remembered ahead of the front. In the minds of good thread optimization of AMD chip programs great kіlkistyu physical counting blocks in the building and sometimes repairing a serious operation. For example, if you look at the Athlon II X3 455 and Pentium G620 ostentatious ones, which are at once promoted for about the same price, then the tri-core CPU in the add-ons, where they can be counted in parallel, can be a big win. Ignore those that the swidcode of the core is overclocked at megahertz in AMD products with the K10.5 architecture, it is noted lower, lower in Intel chips on Sandy Bridge, it is not uncommon for such software to “brute force” to do the devil, wanting to reach the goal of saving the second-time cost savings . Vіm, slіd vznat, scho іdealny vpadok, if all cores of the processor are maximally efficient. In real applied appendices, such zustrіchaetsya, unfortunately, not often. In games, there is no problem for the new Intel solutions. Since we could have changed earlier, Sandy Bridge's microarchitecture miraculously copes with similar challenges, moreover, inspiring like competitors, so the competitor's models are maximum here.

The new Pentiums are on average 20% more productive for a single CPU for the LGA1156 and practically outperform the Core i3 on the Clarkdale core, which is a little more expensive. The simplification of the functional part of these chips did not fit into their swedish displays. Therefore, the entire model can be recommended for the creation of universal systems and gaming platforms of the cob class. In my own line, the Core i3 of another generation has quickly sped up. Obviously, with the core i5 cores it’s super easy, high clock speeds and Hyper Threading technology boosts allow them to demonstrate even better results, including those with add-ons with rich streaming optimization. Well, in games, sometimes they look better than the other AMD Phenom II X4 cores. Vrakhovuchi those that these processors have saved the functionality of older models, the stench can be used for the creation of mid-range gaming PCs, as well as hard multimedia systems.

This time, Intel worked hard to make the LGA1155 platform look truly universal. The infrastructure allows you to create both a top-end system and an inexpensive PC of the cob level. For difficult configurations, motherboards based on Intel Z68 and P67 chipsets are sufficient on the market, and for the most accessible solutions, models based on Intel H61 can be selected. The processor line of Intel looks even more even at the same time. There are no distortions or obvious competition between the solutions of different families. So far, there are no single ceglins - the most available models CPU. Nezabar Celeron also plans to transfer to rails 32-nanometer process and progressive microarchitecture. As a matter of fact, the number of chips will appear in the third quarter of the in-line rock, as well as the expansion and assortment of other lines on Sandy Bridge.
