The Nehalem/Core i7 architecture will scale from two to eight processor cores, have faster chip-to-chip communication (this is Intels QuickPath Technology), these will do a better job of adjusting performance levels to suit power needs, and have a higher level of integration also more logic will be built directly onto the processor die. Other features of the Core i7 include more scalable memory (each processor will have its own dedicated memory), and the ability to do more work simultaneously (up to 16 threads with simultaneous multi-threading), and new instructions to increase efficiency called
Quote > (SSE4.2 instructions). These are the main points of the Nehalem/Core i7 processor. One more thing there Dam expensive ! ATM
