Abstract: Gamers are always curious to know what benefit they get from an expensive CPU in terms of frames per second. In this series of articles we will have a look at different CPUs, running at different clock speeds and with each article we will compare two CPUs...
Abstract: Once more we're having a look at gaming performance in combination with two different high-end processors. In this case we're rather curious to find out how much of a difference there will be between these two CPU's when it comes to theoretical benchmarks...

As we already mentioned, this article marks the start of a new series, and we're going to show you test results und 3WaySLI scaling Comparing to our 2WaySLI articles the conclusion is going to be quite a bit shorter The reason is, that only with theoretic...
Abstract: In our SLI gaming performance scaling articles we're going to investigate SLI scaling factors with different CPUs and different clock speeds since a lot of guys asked for this. In eight recent games and two theoretical benchmarks we want to find out what ...
Abstract: 1,000 Intel processors through the years Not many things are sure in this life, but fortunately there are a number of things you can count on like clockwork. The sun comes up in the morning, we all have to pay taxes and last but not least, the most expe...
Abstract: Late May we published a huge round-up of 45 desktop processors , followed by a review of Intel's fourth generation Core processors . Our readers immediately, and understandably, came with the request for a similar group test of laptop processors. It's a...
Abstract: On June 4 Intel is launching its next generation Core processors, also called Haswell. That means it's the perfect opportunity for us to retest all current processors and a number of older ones with a completely new test configuration. It will not only ...
Abstract: Extreme PC Week Comparing high-end desktop processors that use the latest architecture from AMD and Intel these days, is a bit like comparing apples to walnuts. To pimp up a PC, there is only one company that really offers extreme processing power, an...
Abstract: In this article we're going to check what's the difference in real life gaming performance between an Intel octa core, hexa core or quad core CPU. Furthermore in the system there is a Radeon HD 7970 graphics card form XFX. We're curious if there will be a...
