Review: PC Perspective
_________
All the way back in July of this year, Intel officially unveiled their new processor microarchitecture in the form of the Intel Core 2 Duo line of CPUs. A dramatic shift from the previous series of Pentium 4 and Pentium D processors, the Core 2 line up brought Intel back into the spot light with higher performing and lower power consuming parts than AMD; something they had lacked for some time. Now, not even five months later, Intel is doubling up on the Conroe core's success by releasing the first quad-core processor available to the consumer in the Intel Core 2 Extreme QX6700.
