A few days ago we had the opportunity to try the latest generation Intel Core i7 Processor. Core i7 965 Processor Extreme Edition is the fastest desktop processor in the world today, and in particular lent to us by Intel Indonesia. Processor specifications are:
From the sample we received, compared with Intel Core 2 Duo physically Intel Core i7 processor has a larger form, and built a bigger heatsink as well. Series Core i7 965 Extreme Edition has a heatsink made of a mixture of aluminum and copper, and unique is fannya blue.
In our trial, we combine this processor with other components of the mainboard MSI X58 Platinum, OCZ DDR3 Memory 6 x 1 GB (Tripple Channel Mode), Dual VGA MSI 4870 512 MB (Crossfire Mode), and Power Supply FSP Epsilon 900 Watt . Use of the mainboard with the Intel X58 chipset due to the minimum needs of the Intel Core i7 can only use these chipsets. Of testing using the above components, we use the operating system Windows Vista. Selection is because Windows XP does not support more than 3.2 GB of memory, as well as the mainboard drivers can only run on Windows Vista, when tested in Windows XP bluescreen of death (BSOD) often occur. Describe the results of our tests as follows: Overclocking capabilities: Features Overclocking Core i7 processor in extraordinary to say. The ability to perform complicated settings in the BIOS mainboard is done, so many features that should be considered in setting overclocking. How much power needed for the processor and how the desired temperature can be set via the bios. Features FSB (Front Side Bus) and the multiplier as in the previous Intel processor is replaced by the QPI. Having tried fiddling with the settings we tried to do the overclocking of this processor at 4.2 GHz, is not too high because it is based on the use of standard default heatsink. Memory bandwidth: The tests we did with the software SisoftSandra 2009. With the Tri Channel memory technology, the increase in memory performance was very signifika. From an Intel Core 2 Duo system and by using dual-channel enhancement mode memory bandwidth of more than 100%. For Core 2 Duo 7000, while values obtained with the Core i7 processor is obtained the value 16 000's. Rendering capabilities: By using the Cinebench software, rendering the test which tested this processor can run very quickly, ie less than 3x the speed of rendering using a processor Core 2 duo. Processing rendering images obtained a value of about 18000, compared with a processor Core 2 Duo E7300 is only about 7000's and Core 2 Quad 6600 around 9000's. 3D Gaming capabilities By using software Future Mark Vantage, score we obtained also showed remarkable improvement. Our test before using the Intel Core 2 Duo processor and get score 6000's, with this processor obtained score almost 20000. Broadly speaking, the Intel Core i7 technology brings a fresh breeze for enthusiast-class desktop PC users, since the ability of the processor is indeed remarkable. With the new features in this processor, performance improvement can be achieved is significant. Perhaps the only deficiency in terms of price. Processor samples we are testing the market is worth almost 1000 USD, the course will be a significant obstacle for ordinary desktop PC users. But that Intel, in accordance with the slogan "Leap Ahead" was indeed a pioneer leading edge technology. |
Greatness tested the Intel Core i7
NVIDIA CUDA & ATI STREAM
CUDA is a new technology from Nvidia graphics card manufacturers, and probably not many people use in general. The graphics card is more widely used to run gaming applications, but with technology these CUDA graphics card can be used more optimally when running a software application. Nvidia graphics card functions are used to help the Processor (CPU) in performing calculations in the process data.
CUDA stands for Compute Unified Device Architecture, is defined as a parallel computer architecture, developed by Nvidia. This technology can be used to perform image processing, video, 3D rendering, and so forth. VGA - VGA Nvidia's CUDA technology already uses such as: Nvidia GeForce GTX 280, GTX 260.9800 GX2, 9800 GTX +, 9800 GTX, 9800 GT, 9600 GSO, 9600 GT, 9500 GT, 9400 GT, 9400 mGPU, 9300 mGPU , 8800 Ultra, 8800 GTX, 8800 GTS, 8800 GT, 8800 GS, 8600 GTS, 8600 GT, 8500 GT, 8400 GS, 8300 mGPU, 8200 mGPU, 8100 mGPU, and similar series for the class of mobile (notebook VGA).
- Photoshop Creative Suite CS 4. By using graphics cards already support CUDA, the process of image editing with Photoshop, especially for high-resolution images can be accelerated up to hundreds of percent, the process of zooming and rotate images can be very quickly done. In addition the process of import and manipulate 3D animation in photoshop can be done smoothly. - Pegasys TMPGEnc 4.0. This software is a video processing application. By using a graphics card with CUDA technology, a video encoding process can be run faster than any CPU usage up to 400%. During this time people use the fast and the Multicore CPU to seek faster video encoding process. - As well as some other software. Do not want to miss from Nvidia, AMD is also using technology to run the graphics card or accelerate the process of an application. AMD named this technology with ATI STREAM, namely hardware and software technology that allows the graphics processor (GPU) AMD, working together with the processor (CPU) to speed up common applications, and not limited to just image processing. Processing of video encoding, encryption, and so forth can be done quickly using a GPU. AMD released this technology in conjunction with the release of their latest drivers Catalist 8.12. Graphics card that supports STREAM ATI Radeon graphics card series is 4000, including: Ati Radeon 4870 X2, ATI 4870, ATI 4850, ATI Radeon 4670, and so forth. - ATI Avivo Video Converter - Adobe Acrobat Reader - Adobe Photoshop CS 4 - Adobe After Effects - Microsoft Power Point 2007 - ArcSoft Total Media Theater - Cyberlink Power Director 7 From some tests, the use of technology is often called GPGPU (General-Purpose Computing on Graphics Processing Units) are indeed very helpful processor performance. By using a better graphics card performance achieved tend to be higher than if we replace with a better processor. As consumers are always treated with the new technology, of course, a pity if you do not use it. Please try to feature CUDA for those who have a Nvidia graphics card, and please try ATI ASTREAM for those of you who have AMD Ati Radeon graphics card. |
Noctua NH-D14, Extreme Cooler for Overclockers
Noctua, may still rarely heard in Indonesia. Most people are more familiar with the brand of products Thermaltake, Cooler Master, Xigmatek, or other brand of computer accessories products homemade Taiwanese or Chinese company. Noctua cooling product is the trademark of a company in Austria, which in fact has long been in the computer world, especially to produce accessories for overclocking. This time Noctua cooling device processor tries to offer a sufficiently attractive, in terms of performance can be quite pretty extreme compared to the product - other similar products. Noctua NH-D14, probably from the product naming is a bit difficult to remember because it does not use any other name is more easily remembered as an example: Thermaltake SpinQ, Xigmatek Apache, Thermalright Baram, and so forth.
Noctua NH-D14 is a processor that uses air cooling (fan rotation) on the heatsink that is attached to the processor. Because only use the system cooling fan rotation less risky than using a processor cooling water or dry ice. Product design Noctua NH-D14 is a bit like 2 pieces of towers that are separated by a fan (fan) of the middle-middle and a fan (fan) again on the front. Basic materials and heatpipe heatsink makers of this product is aluminum and copper. Two tower heatsink Noctua NH-D14 are connected by 12 heatpipes with the number of 6 heatpipes on one side and 6 heatpipes on the other side. The size of cooling this processor can be quite large, perhaps this is one reason that makes the performance of the Noctua NH-D14 is very effective. Two fans (fan) on Noctua NH-D14 product has a different size, the series has the size of the NF-P12 120mm fan while the other one is a series of NF-Q14 with size 140mm. Although large enough, 2 pieces of fan (fan) only requires less power and produce a very effective round fan cools the heatsink on 2 pieces of towers (lattice technology (blade) accounted for 9 pieces that are designed specifically). Input power required to rotate the fan (fan) is only about 1 watt, while the rotation fan (fan) produced only about 1200 rpm to 1300 rpm, so that from the noise can be said to be very quiet.
When you buy a product of this Noctua NH-D14, will include some mounting brackets for the various socket processors, including Intel's socket LGA 775, LGA 1156, LGA 1366, and AMD Socket AM2, AM2 + and AM3 with a special backplate. That is quite unique from design Noctua NH-D14 is one of them is the asymmetrical design, or design a form that is not symmetrical. The function of the form that is not symmetrical is that the higher level of compatibility when mounted on various computer systems that sometimes have the shape and size are not the same. Form that is not symmetrical, it is also giving the room is quite a relief to the placement of the memory slots, and it also provides air flow (water flow) is very good on the components - components that are installed on the mainboard.
To prove the cooling performance of this processor, it is necessary to test the test on computer specs Intel and AMD. In testing with dual-core processor specs have results :

With
Clock Speed 2.93 GHz core 2 and core number of fruit and of course
has a hyperthreading processor technology will soon replace the class
Intel Core 2 Duo. Although
the specification of all kinds of Intel Core i3 uses the internal
graphics card (iGPU) on the core processor, but in testing this time we
do not use the internal graphics card. This
is due to the testing conducted using Intel's P55 chipset mainboard
with that do not support the use of an internal graphics card on the
core-core processor, which we tried to look for in testing times is a
performance that can be obtained from an Intel Core i3 530, one of the
overclocking capability.
MSI P55-GD65 mainboard uses the Intel P55 chipset and supports the use of Intel LGA 1156 socket for Intel Core i5 i3/Core / Core i7. This mainboard also been using the newest type of DDR3 memory that supports the use of a high FSB settings, so the process will be easier overclocking without restriction limited memory divider. Another reason we use the MSI P55 mainboard - GD 65 is the use of the mosfet on the mainboard is already equipped with a heatsink and Dr Mos that use server-class components, and between the two mosfet that there is, linked by a special pipe that delivers the release of 8mm thick heat very well. Features that are not less important than the mainboard MSI P55 GD-65 is the OC Genie, which is a quick way to speed the process Overclocking with the addition of each + / - 5 Ghz just by pressing a special button on the mainboard with a very quick and easy.
The first test done is do a test by default to get the standard rate in this test.
Test that we do only use 4 pieces of software are: 3DMark 2006, 3DMark Vantage, Cinebench 10 and Super PI. Each of the software we use is specifically to get certain points that can differentiate under standard conditions with the conditions of the optimization processor overclock way. Indeed there are many ways to search for the optimization of a processor, but the way in which perhaps the easiest and cheapest is to do the overclocking process, because it's been a lot of peripherals that support this process, the manufacturer of the mainboard, memory and processor though sometimes direct the buyer to make the process The overclocking.
Testing the media in this test:
- Processor: Intel Core i3 530
- Mainboard MSI Intel P55-GD65
- Memory Team Elite DDR 3 PCs 1333
- HD 500 GB WDC
- VGA ATI 4870 1 GB AMAZE Zero Therm
- FSP Epsilon 600 Watt PSU
- Operating System Windows 7 Ultimate
Test results at standard conditions / default:
MSI P55-GD65 mainboard uses the Intel P55 chipset and supports the use of Intel LGA 1156 socket for Intel Core i5 i3/Core / Core i7. This mainboard also been using the newest type of DDR3 memory that supports the use of a high FSB settings, so the process will be easier overclocking without restriction limited memory divider. Another reason we use the MSI P55 mainboard - GD 65 is the use of the mosfet on the mainboard is already equipped with a heatsink and Dr Mos that use server-class components, and between the two mosfet that there is, linked by a special pipe that delivers the release of 8mm thick heat very well. Features that are not less important than the mainboard MSI P55 GD-65 is the OC Genie, which is a quick way to speed the process Overclocking with the addition of each + / - 5 Ghz just by pressing a special button on the mainboard with a very quick and easy.
The first test done is do a test by default to get the standard rate in this test.
Test that we do only use 4 pieces of software are: 3DMark 2006, 3DMark Vantage, Cinebench 10 and Super PI. Each of the software we use is specifically to get certain points that can differentiate under standard conditions with the conditions of the optimization processor overclock way. Indeed there are many ways to search for the optimization of a processor, but the way in which perhaps the easiest and cheapest is to do the overclocking process, because it's been a lot of peripherals that support this process, the manufacturer of the mainboard, memory and processor though sometimes direct the buyer to make the process The overclocking.
Testing the media in this test:

Pada saat melakukan test menggunakan 3DMark, test yang dilakukan hanya dicari nilai untuk CPU Score saja, karena pada saat melakukan test benchmark kali ini kami tidak mencari nilai untuk kartu grafis (VGA ). Penggunaan 3DMark 2006 dan 3DMark Vantage tidak lebih sebagai perbandingan score untuk platform yang berbeda , 3Dmark Vantage sudah mendukung hardware yang lebih baru dan software yang lebih baru, terutama untuk DirectX10 dan DirectX11, serta operating sistem diatas Windows Vista. Dalam test kali ini, secara umum hasil yang diperoleh dari processor Intel Core i3 diatas rata-rata processor Core 2 Duo untuk kondisi kecepatan processor dan harga yang tidak jauh berbeda.

Picture: Optimizing the Intel Core i3 with OC at a speed of 4.5 GHz
Overclocking the Intel Core i3 fairly easy to do, with the default CPU Vcore low, the addition of some voltage on the CPU can increase the overclocking potential is quite tolerable. In this test we raise about 0.6 volts from 0.9 volts to 1.5 volts default, a significant increase in the speed of standard conditions rose about 2.9 GHz to 4.5 GHz 1600Mhz. Cooling that we use in this test using air cooling OCZ Vendetta 2, if using stock cooling (cooling inherent) maximum overclocking clocked stable at 4 Ghz only. The results obtained from the process of overclocking the processor Intel Core i3 pretty good, like a score that is obtained from the above table to rise high enough, both the CPU score in 3DMark tests, with Cinebench rendering process, as well as mathematical calculations on the Super PI calculations.
If you want to assemble a new computer with the Intel platform, Intel Core i3 you can make alternative choices, in addition to having a higher yield value than the Intel Core 2 Duo processor, this processor has a pretty good overclocking potential. AMD as Intel's closest rival would be cautious with this processor, it is not possible market AMD Athlon X4 620, X4 630 and Phenom X3 will be displaced by the Intel Core i3.
