Intel Core i5 750 Core i7 870 Review

Testing:

SiSoft Sandra is a diagnostic utility and synthetic benchmarking program. Sandra allows you to view your hardware at a higher level to be more helpful. For this benchmark, I will be running a broad spectrum of tests to gauge the performance of key functions of the CPUs.

The 750 performs better than the AMD offerings across many of the benchmarks, 8 out of 14 to be more precise. The memory bandwidth delivered is lower than the 1366 i7's but well ahead of the AMD 3.4 and 3.2GHz processors.
