How do people know whats the latest and best. I still go by number of cores and ghz. But now theres so many model names!?

Like...

Lynnfield, i5, i7

Is there a chart somewhere that explains which one of these are better? I see a HUGE difference in price but the ghz and amount of cores dont seem much different.

:\

Have an i7 965... it works. well.

I stood in line for four hours. They better give me a Wal-Mart gift card, or something. - Rodney Booker, Job Fair attendee.

I find this quite helpful when trying to find things out.

Stock.

The idea of any hi-fi system is to reproduce the source material as faithfully as possible, and to deliberately add distortion to everything you hear (due to amplifier deficiencies) because it sounds 'nice' is simply not high fidelity. If that is what you want to hear then there is no problem with that, but by adding so much additional material (by way of harmonics and intermodulation) you have a tailored sound system, not a hi-fi. - Rod Elliot, ESP

Probably

Chances are any i7 920 D0 will clock better than a i7 965

I weep tears like a river if that 965 is at stock. Anything under 4.5GHz and I will be very mad.

The charts found here will give you a good base idea of whats better, but none of them show how the cpus perform in OC.
