Intel Corporation has introduced its most advanced desktop processor the Intel Core i7 processor.

The Core i7 processor is the first member of a new family of Intel’s next generation microarchitecture processor designs and is the most sophisticated ever built, with new technologies that boost performance on demand and maximize data throughput.

The Core i7 processor speeds video editing, immersive games and other popular Internet and computer activities by up to 40 per cent without increasing power consumption.

Broadly heralded by the computing industry as a technical marvel, the Intel Core i7 processor holds a new world record of 117 for the SPECint_base_rate2006  benchmark test that measures the performance of a processor. This is the first time for any single processor to exceed a score of 100 points, said a statement.
 
At the launch event in Dubai, Samir Al-Schamma, Intel general manager for the GCC said: “Today’s launch coincides with the global launch of the Core i7 processor, one of Intel’s most anticipated products. Intel has delivered the fastest desktop processor on Earth to the most demanding users on Earth, the ones who are using their PCs for video, gaming and music.”

“When you couple what is Intel’s biggest leap in chip design with other incredible innovations like Intel’s solid state drives, the Core i7 processor has redefined the computer of tomorrow,” added Al-Schamma. – TradeArabia News Service
