Hmm, this has gotten off-topic

I not even bother to answer ...

core

3300 MHz (1 core)

And i7 3610QM is Ivy Bridge

1st gen i7 720QM :

You should have your eyes checked

Stay on topic!

his argument is 1st gen i7 also turbo boost all cores.

why he gave a link to a 3rd gen i7 then is beyond me

i need to get MY eyes checked...

I wonder if it will be able to run SSBB at some playable FPS:

Intel Core i5 3317U 1.7 GHz Processor
4 GB DDR3
128 GB Solid-State Drive
Intel HD 4000 Graphics

YES!!!!! I made a thread about this

No it won't. IPC is so different in some architectures that clock rate becomes completely irrelevant when comparing them.

Quote: my p4 at 3 is better than my core 2 at 2.4 at emulation.

That's impossible. A core 2 duo is on average twice as fast as a pentium 4 in clock for clock single threaded performance, that includes emulators. A core 2 duo at 2.4GHz will beat a 3 GHz pentium 4 in every single application by a large margin.

Quote:personally, i look at clock speed, cache size, cores, turbo boost limit and other things i may be interested in such as 1st gen i7 turbo boosts one core, while sandy/ivy can turbo boost all. if i'm correct.

Most of those are fairly irrelevant with this type of application when comparing chips with different microarchitectures.

Quote:whats wrong with what i said? they all turbo, just different levels. nothing wrong with what i said

But that's not what you said. What you said was:

Quote:1st gen i7 turbo boosts one core, while sandy/ivy can turbo boost all.

Which is incorrect.

No a p4 at 3 is faster than a 2.33. I know. I own them both. I have made the comparison
