Intel's Core 2 Quadro

Intel's new Core 2 Quadro codenamed Kentsfield) features four cores(yes 4!!!)on the processor.It is however not 4 cores on a single die but two Core 2 processors in a single package.However this is enough for this beast to win over all the other competitors hands down.

The fabrication techniques presently available however limit the maximum no. of cores that can be fit in to four.

With the 45nm fabrication processes to be ready by mid-2007,and the envisioned plan of 32nm fabrication thanks to EUV lithography ,Intel might be all set to extend its technological edge over its competitors.

The benchmarks were no less then expected ,creating records in benchmark tests: PCMark05 , 3D Mark 06.

As usual ,Intel processors kick-ass in grapics tests as did this. And again it proved its mettle in the Application and Multitasking tests.

Other processors queued up in shame as the SiSoft Sandra test was conducted. This literally beat the pants off the others.

Here are the technical specifications (taken from Toms Hardware).
