Description:

Nehalem is a radically new design for Intel: for the first time, the CPU is a 'native' quad-core CPU, where all four cores sit on the same piece of silicon. With its Core 2 CPUs, Intel used two dual-Core dies to create a quad-core chip, this translates into better performance. Nehalem features Level 3 cache, something first seen on earlier Xeon server chips, but Intel Core i7s will feature up to a massive 8MB (shared between all four cores). Each of Nehalem's four cores has 256KB of lower-latency Level 2 cache. Nehalem uses Hyper-Threading. This technology works just as it did with the Pentium 4, using spare resources of a processing core to try to execute a second process thread. This means that a quad-core Nehalem processor can accept and attempt to process eight threads simultaneously, making it even more massively parallel than the current Core 2 Quad CPUs.

Question  What speed DDR3? by disleyblue

What is the optimal speed DDR3 memory to pair with this CPU?

Answer by stevenl on Tuesday, February 2, 2010
1333Mhz ram if you are not intending to overclock your CPU. If you are then i would recommend 1600Mhz.

Question  ? by The Bridge

Does this CPU already have Thermal Paste applied to it?

Also I Have an Asus P7P55D LE mother board, which CPU would be best to use and give me all round best performance and compatibility. The one above or #35943???

Thanks

Answer by stevenl on Tuesday, December 15, 2009
The heatsink has the thermal paste pre-applied to it.

As for best performance, only this CPU would fit, as the Q8400 is designed for socket 775 motherboards.

Question  Heatsink supplied by itxpert

Hi,
Does this package come with the heatsink?
if not which one is recommended

Answer by stevenl on Thursday, November 5, 2009
Yes it does.

Question  Diffrance by kev

Answer by stevenl on Wednesday, September 30, 2009
This CPU would be the slightly faster.
