Intel® Core™ i7 980XE 6-Core Processor - 3.33GHz

CODE: CP-i13i7H980XE


Price: R10,561.00

Product Description

The Intel Core i7 processor is the latest in cutting edge processor technology for the desktop PC. Based on the new Intel Westmere 32nm microarchitecture, the Intel Core i7 processor delivers six complete execution cores within a single processor along with the rebirth of Intel HyperThreading Technology, delivering unprecedented performance and responsiveness in multi-threaded and multi-tasking business and home use environments and the ability to simultaneously process up to 12 separate threads.

The unprecedented performance of the Intel Core i7 processor is made possible by each of the six complete execution cores delivering the full power of Intel Westmere 32nm microarchitecture. More instructions can be carried out per clock cycle, shorter and wider pipelines execute commands more quickly, and improved bus lanes move data throughout the system faster. This six core, twelve thread processor represents Intel’s continued leadership and drive of multi-core processing and more parallel computing.

Doing More with Intel Six Core

The Intel Core i7 processor is at the center of today’s most interactive and content rich software experiences. The evolving set of threaded multi-media applications, including digital content creation, will shine as users are able to complete tasks faster. Game play can achieve even greater visualization and realism as tasks such as artificial intelligence (AI), physics, and rendering can be distributed across each of the six complete execution cores and run in parallel.
