    Summary

    At the end of January I published my initial Core i3 7100 Linux benchmarks while for those still on older Sandy Bridge hardware and thinking of upgrading to a Core i3 Kabylake, here are some interesting comparative benchmarks. For these weekend tests are...

    Summary

    Although this review is dedicated to Core i3-2100, we'd like to mention two outsiders first: Phenom II X2 560 and Core 2 Quad Q8200. The results of the latter are logical: it's an old, discontinued solution we used solely as a reference point. But its...

    Summary

    Sandy Bridge microarchitecture is amazingly diverse. We have already admired the high performance of processors based on it many time, and today we saw clearly that it is also a perfect fit for products to be used in quiet, compact and energy-efficien...

    Summary

    All Pages Page 1 of 15Intel started 2011 off with the official introduction to their highly anticipated Sandy Bridge processors. We had the chance to take a look at their mid-range i5-2500k and we loved it. The i5-2500k isn’t perfect for everyone, tha...

    Summary

    Despite the lack of Turbo Boost, the i3-2100 was able to hold its own in many of our benchmarks, giving CPUs such as the LGA1366 Core i7-950 and quad-core Core i5-2400 something to think about. Most inspiring of all was its speed in games and image edi...

    Summary

    Following up the launch of CPUs with an integrated video controller for laptops two weeks ago, codenamed “Llano,” AMD is finally launching their much anticipated CPU series for desktops with an integrated video controller. Let’s check the performance o...

    Summary

    Intel Core i3-2100T and Core i5-2400S processors have a rated speed of just 2.5 GHz, but the i5-2400S has some crazy Turbo Boost speeds, and they both have TDPs 30W lower than their standard counterparts.

    Summary

    Today we are having a look at the Intel i3 2100 processor. This is a dual-core processor that has a clock speed of 3.1 GHz. It comes with 3 MB of Intel Smart Cache, built on a 32 nm manufacturing process and has a max TDP of 65 Watts. These ar...

    Summary

    Do not be fooled by the $124 pricing of the Core i3 2100. The processor is not a sloth. While it is not able to compete against a true quad-core when it comes to heavily threaded application, thanks to hyperthreading, it is more than capable in lightl...

    Bjorn3d.com
    Pros

    Excellent performance for light threaded applications, Low power consumption, Runs at low temperatures, Decent integrated graphics from Intel HD 2000, Hyperthreading support, Affordable, Good price and performance ratio

    Cons

    Cannot compete against quad cores in heavily threaded applications

    Summary

    The LGA 1155 entry level dual core range is very attractive indeed. The memory controller, the IGP and the PCI Express are back on the same die, which allows the CPU to benefit from reduced latency during memory accesses, at the same time as reducing e...

    Summary

    Intel never quite reached 4GHz with the Pentium 4. Despite being on a dedicated quest for gigahertz the company stopped short and the best we ever got was 3.8GHz. Within a year the clock (no pun intended) was reset and we were all running Core 2 Duos...

    Summary

    It seems just like yesterday that Intel launched the Core 2 Duo series of CPUs and re-established itself as the king of the hill for x86 CPUs. As hard as it may be to believe, that was four and a half years ago. Since then Intel has been following ...
