About this product

Product Information

The Intel Core i7-950 quad-core processor can give you an upgrade for your computer and more. It provides you with a powerful, speedy computer experience. The i7 family of Intel processors contains a very efficient kind of micro-architecture. Intel removed the front side bus architecture, which carries data between the CPU and a memory controller hub in parallel. They replaced it with a new technology called Quick Path Interconnect. The new architecture creates multiple pairs of high-speed, point-to-point links. Thanks to these specifications, you get faster data transfer between the microprocessor and chipset. With the Intel i7-950 processor, you are getting a powerful quad-core design and a streamlined CPU.The i7-950 microprocessor boasts no less than four separate cores. Each one operates at a clock speed of 3.06 GHz. With all that extra processing power and speed, you can run graphics-intensive, demanding programs and media simultaneously on your computer. Your computer will remain fast and free from lag even under this considerable load. The CPU also features lots of new innovations to improve efficiency and responsiveness. These help you get the most out of every bit of processing speed. One example is when the i7 CPU is running below its thermal limits. The turbo boost technology will detect this and automatically bump up clock speed by 133 MHz. The microprocessor can even achieve a maximum single core performance of 3.33 GHz.By upgrading to the Intel Core i7-950, you will also get the benefits of Hyper-Threading technology. Hyper-Threading enables multiple threads to run on each core. That allows the computer to make the most efficient use of the processor's resources. Hyper-threading is perfect for highly threaded software such as media players and CPU intensive gaming. You will be able to run background applications, such as virus protection or video processing software, safely. The overall performance of the hardware will remain uncompromised.The Intel Core i7 is an ideal processor for gamers who need a fast, responsive CPU. Intel worked closely with CryTek, the developers of the hit Crysis and Far Cry series, to ensure the best gaming performance. The i7 microprocessor can push advanced physics and artificial intelligence in real-time while maintaining a consistent frame rate. The i7 processor also improves DVD encoding speeds so that you can burn your high-definition videos on disc faster.This high-end microprocessor is compatible with motherboards based on the Intel X58 Express chipset. It fits into a 45-nm socket on your motherboard. It also has 8MB of SmartCache memory. That means that all cores on the microprocessor can share access to the cache at the same time. SmartCache improves resource allocation and increases the amount of available RAM. The microprocessor has a 4.8 GT/s bus speed to transfer more data between the CPU's component. It also contains three different DDR3 memory channels, with a maximum bandwidth of 25.6 GB/s. It supports a maximum memory size of 24GB total.

    Processor

    I thought my processor had failed so I bid on this one. When I received it, I put it in and no difference. Turned out my Corsair 650W had failed after 6 years. I got my system to boot with the original processor after I replaced my power supply with a working one. I then temporary replaced my processor with this purchased one and ran the Intel Processor Diagnostic Tool 64bit on the CPU. It passed all test so then I put my original processor back in, Since I do not need this replacement processor, I will relist it on ebay. Testing this processor myself made me confident in my purchase and future resale of this i7 950 3.06G.

  • Amazing piece of technology

    One word: WOW. Tell me how I switch from a AMD Phenom II to this. Even a 9-year old processor like this one is well-equipped for anything I can throw at it. Triple-channel DDR3 RAM and SLI/CrossFire support on a chip this inexpensive is incredible. I needed this so bad!

  • Oldie but goodie CPU.

    This was a very powerful CPU in it's day and still holds its own pretty well.

  • Solid processor

    Has a manageable thermal power draw and runs stable. Got a second one after my first lasted 8 years and working as good as original. Use a solid aftermarket thermal Paste
