Description
This is a product review for the Intel Core I7-6950X Deca-core Processor 3.0 Ghz Lga 2011-3. This processor has Turbo Boost Max Technology 3.0 which allows it to dynamically increase its frequency as needed. It also has Hyper-Threading Technology which delivers two processing threads per physical core. It also has Extended Page Tables (EPT) which provides acceleration for memory intensive virtualized applications. Finally, it has Enhanced Intel SpeedStep Technology which is an advanced means of enabling high performance while meeting the power-conservation needs of mobile systems.
Intel Turbo Boost Max Technology 3.0 Intel Turbo Boost Max
Technology 3.0 identifies the best performing core(s) on a
processor and provides increased performance on those cores through
increasing frequency as needed by taking advantage of power and
thermal headroom.
Intel Turbo Boost Technology Intel Turbo
Boost Technology dynamically increases the processor's frequency as
needed by taking advantage of thermal and power headroom to give
you a burst of speed when you need it, and increased energy
efficiency when you don't.
Intel Hyper-Threading Technology
Intel Hyper-Threading Technology (Intel HT Technology) delivers
two processing threads per physical core. Highly threaded
applications can get more work done in parallel, completing tasks
sooner.
Intel VT-x with Extended Page Tables (EPT) Intel
VT-x with Extended Page Tables (EPT), also known as Second Level
Address Translation (SLAT), provides acceleration for memory
intensive virtualized applications. Extended Page Tables in Intel
Virtualization Technology platforms reduces the memory and power
overhead costs and increases battery life through hardware
optimization of page table management.
Enhanced Intel SpeedStep
Technology Enhanced Intel SpeedStep Technology is an advanced
means of enabling high performance while meeting the
power-conservation needs of mobile systems. Conventional Intel
SpeedStep Technology switches both voltage and frequency in tandem
between high and low levels in response to processor load. Enhanced
Intel SpeedStep Technology builds upon that architecture using
design strategies such as Separation between Voltage and Frequency
Changes, and Clock Partitioning and Recovery.
