It's not really 360 but I see more computer talk in here then anywhere else so I might as well

Pentium is dropping the intel name, they are going strictly by numbers, it's not that hard to find out, I have an 8somthingsomthing, They do plan to come up with another name eventually, I think they did this because of all the flak it's been getting as of recent from it's high power consumption, and it's heat issues.

Any guesses on the names when they upgrade all their proc's to 60nm processes?

Linkie

So let's try to break the habit now! (Doubt it will happen anytime soon)

**dragonfly** · 01-29-2006, 05:30 PM

Who uses Intels anymore anyway? :P

I don't blame them though, it's about time they threw that crappy old brand out. They used it as a play on the word "penta", five, for the P5 ("586") architecture; it's not a very appropriate name for today's CPUs.
But then again, brands were never about being appropriate.

I was surprised when the "Pentium II" showed up, and thought "shouldn't it be called the Hexium?" :P

**RedDeath** · 01-29-2006, 05:42 PM

I use the intel 930D, what about you?

(It will be tough to learn the new names)

**gamesnake** · 01-29-2006, 05:47 PM

I liked the names better... whatll be the name for my 3.6ghz extreme edition?

**MICHAELSD** · 01-29-2006, 05:47 PM

People still use Intel! I have an Intel pentium 4 2.72 processor!

Lol I doubt you paid 1100$ for that.

use google

**vecha** · 01-29-2006, 05:58 PM

I use a pentium 4 3.00GHZ 2(CPUs) with a nivida 6800 256MB and 2046MB of RAM....and I play all the new released games on medium to high(not EVERYTHING on high...but almost everything)

intel sucks. I built my own pc during the summer last year and I didn't do any research on cpus and just bought a 530j by intel. Of course, it is a nice processor, but like you said, it overheats. And I do a bit of online gaming on my pc and it sucks. I should of stuck with amd. but I learned something and my next pc will be the best cost efficient system you can buy.

only if you realized how big the intel fan they they gave me is. I also looked for another fan and they all suck. getting another fan is not a choice I have. the best solution now is water cooling which I am looking into.

keep in mind my current fan runs loud and my system goes as high as 68 C when gaming. while that is alright for a 530j, I hate the noise as the fan speeds up.

**KINGOFNOOBS** · 01-30-2006, 05:13 PM

what does this have to do with xbox360?

BS! I Just bought an intel 651, it's a 3.4ghz proc, 2mb L2 Cache, 800mhz fsb. It Is also on the new 65nm process, which means much less heat and electricity. I have it overclocked to 3.8 with a beastly fan (it's a noname brand but it's quiet and fast), and my temp never goes over 60 C, and that's during a game or rendering.

well you have an improved cpu anyway. I got a 530j which has the specs but intel didn't do a great job with heat. and everyone knows it too. I should have stuck with amd with their actual 64-bit cpus. by the way, mine is 90nm

How about Apple, deciding that Intels D processors are the only processors that can power them, at a high temp

why would I overclock if the heat is already high when idle (around 40-50 C).
