CPU
Intel Core 2 Duo E8400 Wolfdale against E6850 Conroe

The new 45nm CPU with new HIGH-K technology reduces gate leakage and heat. Lets compare 45ns E8400 ES VS. 65nm E6850 in benchmarks, video compression, overclocking, and power consumption.

3Dmark06 CPU Score

CPU Test game scene on 3Dmark06 yields three types of load in the CPU tests: game logic, physics and path finding AI. The game logic, runs in a single main thread that also drives the other two tasks. The physics simulation runs in a single separate thread, and is synched with the main thread at each physics step. The path finding AI runs in a number of worker threads, and is synched with the main thread at set intervals, generally some multiple of the physics step interval.
