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!!!

    Apparently your not the only one struggling with the ads. I got this when clicking on the link.

    "The server at www.hexus.net is taking too long to respond."
    "The site could be temporarily unavailable or too busy. Try again in a few
    moments."

    This is getting way beyond silly now.

    Every few weeks the same guy submits a story on his site, every time the site melts within a few minutes of the story being accepted.

    Surprise surprise, this story is no exception. The page actually loads which makes a change: but its just a worthless error message.
