/*Review:*/ Intel Core i7 965 Extreme CPU Review

( -at -) Hi Tech Legion

/*Snippet: "*The performance capabilities of the Core i7 965 Extreme are

clearly defined through the various benchmarks performed on the test

system. The strong points for the 965 were its superior performance out

of the box with the dominance throughout the various benchmarks,

especially with the productivity tasks performed by high end

workstations. The graphics performance was not as strong in the gaming

categories versus the 920, but once overclocked, the 965 out performs

the 920 solidly in the gaming benchmarks with a lesser clock speed after

overclocking. The additional headroom in overclocking with better

cooling would certainly add to the performance of this chip, but when

considering the price point and classification of this chip, many of the

systems that this chip would find a home in would include water cooling

and various other provisions to allow for stronger and higher

overclocks, with a much stronger dominance over all the other chips in

the market."//
