September 20, 201015 yr Looks like a major cpu performance increase is upon us:http://wccftech.com/2010/09/16/intel-sandy-bridge/&http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hKGnaTrxS_kAnd not at a $1000,- price tag.
September 20, 201015 yr Do we know what socket? 1366?The article said socket 1155... which means new motherboard Christopher Edwards
September 20, 201015 yr Holy Cow! That means out with the old and in with the new...again!Kind regards,
September 20, 201015 yr Interesting.... wonder what cooler they had? And how many cores is this cpu? | My Liveries | FAA ZMP | PPL ASEL | | Windows 11 | MSI Z690 Tomahawk | 12700K 4.7GHz | MSI RTX 4080 | 64GB 6000 MHz DDR5 | 500GB Samsung 860 Evo SSD | 2x 2TB Samsung 970 Evo M.2 | EVGA 850W Gold | Corsair 5000X | HP G2 (VR) / LG 27" 1440p |
September 20, 201015 yr I wonder when these are gonna be on the market.Pretty amazing value Interesting.... wonder what cooler they had? And how many cores is this cpu?It's a four core CPU, it said in the article http://wccftech.com/2010/09/16/intel-sandy-bridge/

September 21, 201015 yr Holy Cow! That means out with the old and in with the new...again!Kind regards,Exactly! I was going to upgrade this week from an E6850 to an i7 950. Quote from wikipedia'4 cores by default, but processors with 6 and 8 cores will probably be available in Q2 2011''Sandy Bridge will be an evolutionary step from Core i5/i7 and will focus on power efficiency'Maybe I will wait now until next year and keep adding to the money I have saved and get one of these '8' cores instead.
September 21, 201015 yr Author What's the 3D stress test they are running?It's Cinebench 11.5.This supposedly is a Core I7 2600K cpu. The top model. "K" for unlocked multiplier. The cooler was the same as the stock Intel I7 980X cooler.An I5 2500K "unlocked" Sandy Bridge processor is also on its way, in the $200 - $250 price range.Source (Dutch): http://nl.hardware.info/nieuws/20713/intel-sandy-bridge-opgevoerd-tot-49-ghz
September 21, 201015 yr Hi,We must stop this immediately. If those dammed CPU are released, it will mark the end of the FSX forum. If there are no more performance issues, what will the posts be about? :Just Kidding: More seriously, I was about to buy a new computer and I think that I will wait a bit to see what comes out from those CPU. If I don't and get low FPS and blurries , I will regret my purchase forever. :Cry: My gallery: http://s1075.photobucket.com/albums/w430/yankeegolf/
September 21, 201015 yr Well we already knew about SB before i7 was even released. Intel was very clear they were going to milk the memory accelerator thing. This 4.9ghz wafer is the real news here.
September 21, 201015 yr It's Cinebench 11.5.Thanks.Gary 9800X3D | 4090 | 64GB | 2+1TB NVME | 2TB SSD | 2TB HDD | 85/50/43” TVs | Quest 3 | DOF H3 Motion Rig | Buttkicker | T.16000M Flight Kit MSFS @ 4K Ultra DLSS Performance FG 80 FPS | VR VDXR Godlike 80Hz SSW | MSFS VR DLSS Quality, Ultra Preset - Windows 11 Acer Nitro 5 | i5-11400H | RTX 3060 6 GB | 32GB DDR4 | 15.6" FHD IPS 144Hz | 2 x 512 GB SSD | Windows 11
September 23, 201015 yr Well we already knew about SB before i7 was even released. Intel was very clear they were going to milk the memory accelerator thing. This 4.9ghz wafer is the real news here.You can be sure that they hand picked the CPU to show... you'd have to be beyond optimistic to expect all chips to OC to 4.9ghz. Having said that, clock for clock Sandy bridge is a lot faster than current chips. I'm waiting to upgrade my E8400 until these come out :)
