Intel Core i7 Processor Extreme Edition

Not being up to date on Intel processors like I used to, (owning an Intel Core 2 Quad QX9450: 2.66GHz, 45nm technology); I wanted to review and get the specs of the Intel Core i7 Processor: Extreme Edition.

The i7-975 processor is ranked at 3.33GHz per core on a whopping four cores. The processor has 8 threads; it's quite possibly ridiculous for the transfer of information and speed. However, the use of two threads per core enables the processor and the user to perform multiple tasks without any problems... in this case; this processor is advertised to be utilized as a gaming processor.

The usage of Intel's Hyper-Threading Technology helps increase the overall speed to 3.55GHz per core or 3.66GHz at a single core. This technology is utilized even more than ever when the technology was first enabled in the need I say; Pentium
