Intel's Penryn Benchmarked

Posted by CmdrTaco on from the slightly-faster-than-my-286 dept.

Steve Kerrison writes "Intel's keen to show off its up-coming 45nm Penryn Core 2 CPU. HEXUS had some hands on time with the new processor to get an idea of how well it will perform once its released: 'Intel's new 45nm Penryn core adds more than just a clock and FSB hike, so much so that even a dual-core Penryn is able to beat out a quad-core QX6800 under certain circumstances.'"

    I know this comment is of no intrinsic value to /. But bloody hell those things bloody piss me right off!

    With this article it was almost like that "don't touch the wire" game - slowly edging the mouse down through the minefield of text bombs ready to go off in your face at the slightest hint of mousage.

    ARRGGHH!!!
