[Tech ARP] Intel Core i7 D0 Core Performance Advantage Revealed

[news 28]

Dear editor,

 

 

 

We have just posted the Intel Core i7 D0 Core Performance Advantage Revealed

article.

 

 

 

Quote : When first launched on November 17, 2008, Intel offered three Core

i7 models based on the C0 core stepping. They followed this up with the new

D0 core stepping on May 31, 2009. The first processors to feature the new D0

stepping was the Core i7-975 Extreme Edition, the Core i7-950 and the Core

i7-920. This was followed up lately by the Core i7-960 on October 20, 2009.

 

Stepping is another word for a revision number. It is basically a way for

microprocessor manufacturers to designate "steps" in the evolution of their

microprocessor designs. Instead of using a revision number (1.1 -> 1.2),

they use a combination of a letter and a number (B0 -> B1). So what's the

big deal about core steppings? Read on and find out!
