QUOTE(eugenechiuu @ Mar 1 2011, 09:57 AM) that was an exception.. They HAD to.. because Vista was a disaster and sales was really bad... I think they lost so much money through it... So Windows 7 had to be release as soon as possible I guess... It was around 1 year++ also... actually it's that Vista took too long to be developed...MS' time frame has always been a new OS every 2yrs... Windows 98 (released 1997) -> Windows ME (1999) -> Windows XP (2001) Vista should ve came out in 2003, but they hit so much problems that they scraped the whole project and start from scratch, thus the delay till 2007, a total of 4yrs delay... now everything is back on track... Vista (2007) -> Win7 (2009) -> Win8 (2011) Added on March 1, 2011, 2:00 pm QUOTE(eugenechiuu @ Mar 1 2011, 09:36 AM) I dun think Intel would wanna come out with Ivy Bridge so fast, at least not until AMD Bulldozer comes out, since SB is really profitable and it's quite a leap from the first gen core i series... looking forward to changing rig in 2012... IB vs Bulldozer is going to be interesting... AMD is claiming up to 50% more performance (same clock same core) compared to the current K10 architecture...it's going to be Hyper Threading against sub-cores... for now my trusty Core 2 will serve me well... i juz love my laptop so much...

QUOTE(ZephyrNoir @ Mar 11 2011, 09:04 AM) for sandy bridge i5 and i7, do i7 perform much better than i5 (quad core vs dual core?) or its depend on what applications you use it for? the usual saying is "depend on the program u run"... games = dual core, pro apps = quad corebut now that SB has got a pretty big improvement in performance/core, quad core's performance in unoptimized programs is pretty good... so it's down to ur budget now... |

other than the clock speed, 2720QM also has
support DDR3 1600MHz higher graphic dynamic clock Intel VT-d Intel Anti-theft technology Execute Disable Bit http://ark.intel.com/Compare.aspx?ids=52219,50067, i say, unless u re a business user, 2630QM is already sufficient... it's already much better than the previous quad cores...
