Chip giant Intel today launched its most advanced desktop processor `Intel Core i7` in India.
The Core i7 processor is the first member of a new family of Nehalem processor designs and is the most sophisticated ever built, with new technologies that boost performance on demand and maximise data throughput.
The processor speeds video editing, immersive games and other popular internet and computer activities by up to 40 per cent without increasing power consumption.
Broadly heralded by the computing industry as a technical marvel, the Intel Core i7 processor holds a new world record of 117 for the SPECint_base_rate2006* benchmark test that measures the performance of a processor.
This is the first time ever for any single processor to exceed a score of 100 points.
"Intel has delivered the fastest desktop processor on earth to the most demanding users on earth, the ones who are using their PCs for video, gaming and music," Intel`s South Asia Marketing Director Prakash Bagri told reporters here.
"When you couple what is Intel`s biggest leap in chip design with other incredible innovations like Intel`s solid state drives, the Core i7 processor has redefined the computer of tomorrow," he said.
