Forget The Core 2 Duo
There’s now a Core 3 Trio!
From a comment on digg:
I’ve run benchmarks on this in the past and have observed a few problems with this platform:
1) Memory latency increases as runtime progresses.
2) The fidelity of graphics rendering routines declines as runtime progresses.
3) It becomes necessary for the system to flush its buffers with annoying frequency.
4) Sometimes, the system spontaneously performs a sleep() call from which it can takes hours to return.
I wonder what Intel will have to say about this.
