Intel Core i7 965 review

Intel Core i7 Extreme 965

Processor which code-named Bloomfield XE ( Extreme edition ) has more changes than before edition. One of them is the socket LGA775 into LGA1366. The others features like 64bit X64 instruction is supported by this CPU.This also support IA SSE 4.1 and IA SSE 4.2.
The used cache also changing, for L3 cache increase higher till 8 MB.
Of course, with it's speed 3.2 GHz and Quad Core CPU make this processor has great benchmark.

But for it's price, Intel Core i7 965 costs about US$ 1150. The expensive price for Personal or Home User I think.
