Intel Core i3, i5 and i7 2nd Gen and previous 1st Gen iCore Family Comparison.
Several Reviews for the 2nd Gen Intel Core i3, i5 and i7 Processors family have been read, comparisons between Intel 1st Gen and 2nd Gen of Processors, Advantages and disadvantages, benefits from the 2nd Gen Processors, In addition to that below are some Facts about the 2nd generation Intel Core Processor Family Intel Core i3, i5 and i7 and the preceding 1st generation of Intel iCore Processor family.

• Compared to previous generations, content creation is up to 42 percent faster and gaming up to 50 percent faster with 2nd generation Intel Core processors.
• There are close to one billion transistors inside a 2nd generation Intel Core processor. If a car were to have one billion parts – compared to the 30,000 they currently have – it would take the most productive car manufacturer 114 years to assemble this car.
• If a processor were a country and its transistor count was a country’s population, a 2nd generation Intel Core processor would be the third most popular country in the world (995 million+) just behind China and India.
• If you applied new Intel® Turbo Boost Technology to your daily activities, you could accomplish more in less time, giving you up to four hours back of your day, time that was previously spent waiting for your technology.
• A 2nd generation Intel Core processor contains more transistors (540 million) than the number of registered cars in the European Union , the U.S. and the Asia Pacific region combined.
• If every home in the U.S. had 30 light switches it would take the new chips about one nanosecond to turn on all 3.57 billion light switches in the housing units in the U.S.
• A 32nm transistor found in the new chips can switch on and off more than 300 billion times in one second. It would take you 4,000 years to flick a light switch on and off that many times.
• If you equate the power consumption of a laptop based on the 2nd generation Intel Core processors to electric clothing dryer, drying one load of clothes for 60 minutes is equivalent to running a laptop for 147 hours or 6 days and 2.4 hours. If you compare the processor to an electric oven, baking a pizza for 45 minutes at 350°F is equivalent to running 67 laptops for 50 hours.
• Compared to Intel’s first microprocessor, the 4004, introduced in 1971, a 32nm CPU runs over 4,000 times as fast and each transistor uses about 4,000 times less energy. The price per transistor has dropped by a factor of about 100,000.
• The Intel Core processor is printed on very pure silicon, which is refined from common beach sand. So the sand you once stepped on at the beach may be powering your notebook today.
• If you were to take the performance boost enabled by Intel® Turbo Boost to graphics- intensive applications and apply it to a Boeing 767 airplane, the plane could travel 50 percent faster. This means a flight that usually lasts one hour would take only 40 minutes.
• If you were to take the performance boost from the 2nd Gen Intel Core processor over the previous generation Intel Core Processor and apply it to a Boeing 767 airplane, the plane could travel two times faster. This means a flight that usually lasts two hours would take only 60 minutes.
• Integrating processing cores, memory controller and graphics subsystems on the same 32nm die joins a list of other disruptive technology “marriages” such as: (Cell Phones + Wireless Internet Access, Cloud Computing + Always-On Devices, Blogs + Google Ads, MP3 + Napster, YouTube + Flip Cams, Internet + TV)
• The 2nd Generation Intel Core processor family is viewed by analysts as one of Intel’s most important product cycles ever.
New 2nd Generation Intel® Core™ i7, i5 and i3 desktop processors
With built-in enhanced visual features, achieve several milestones for Intel platforms:

4G Mobile Technology by GLOBE will improve Internet-Usage Experience
Globe announces a major expansion of its current 4G footprint by becoming the first carrier in the Philippines to launch the commercial roll out of 4G mobile technology. This rollout, the first phase of which utilizes the global standard HSPA+ or Evolved High-Speed Packet Access, will complement Globe Telecom’s existing 4G WiMAX (Worldwide Interoperability for Microwave Access) network. The rollout of Globe 4G mobile network will provide its subscribers high speed broadband access with the added convenience of full mobility.

About 4G and how it improves Internet Usage Experience
About 4G and HSPA+HSPA+, or Evolved High-Speed Packet Access, is a 4G wireless, mobile, high speed broadband technology that allows for peak theoretical download speeds of up to 21 Mbps with upgradeability for 84Mbps. With HSPA+ technology, subscribers will experience high peak rates, lower latency, improved “always-on experience”, better multimedia upload, high-speed web browsing, and faster streaming and downloads. Under Globe HSPA+ network, subscribers are expected to enjoy browsing at an average speed of 4-6 Mbps with even faster peak speeds. HSPA+ is the chosen mobile 4G standard for other carriers globally including AT&T and T-mobile in the US.
4G Mobile Tech from Globe availability
To date, Globe 4G mobile technology has been deployed covering sites across Metro Manila, which includes Marikina, Quezon City, Makati, Pasay, Las Pinas, Taguig and the City of Manila. By end-2011, Globe expects to increase its 4G presence dramatically with continued expansion planned into 2012.
Ernest Cu, President and CEO of Globe Telecom said, “Globe is again pioneering innovation in the Philippines. With the uptake in broadband both on mobile and through other devices, customers want faster broadband in more places. Globe is continuously looking forways to improve our network infrastructure to meet the demand for quality services. In 2009, we were the first carrier to launch 4G through our WiMax network. Today, we extend our leadership by taking 4G mobile. With our high speed broadband rollout, Globe will continueto lead in customer experience by giving our subscribers better, faster, and more reliable broadband connections on their phone, laptop, PC or tablet.”
Globe will be complementing this launch shortly through the announcement of a suite of new multimedia services, 4G devices and offers for customers to enjoy.
Globe is already the first and largest 4G network in the country. Since April 2009, Globe has aggressively pursued plans to establish its 4G footprint in the country with industry leading availability of WiMAX. As the country’s 4G pioneer, with one of the largest WiMAX deployments in Southeast Asia, Globe has already made 4G available in over 1,500 sites in nearly 60 provinces across the Philippines, covering 365 cities, including Manila, Caloocan, Cainta, Antipolo, Taytay, Plaridel, Cabanatuan, Dasmarinas, Bacoor, Imus, Tanza, Calamba, Batangas City, Cebu City, Cagayan De Oro, and Zamboanga.
Other technologies in the 4G category include Worldwide Interoperability for Microwave Access (WiMAX) and Long Term Evolution (LTE) as rated by the International Telecommunication Union. The ITU is the leading United Nations agency for information and communication technology issues and establishes worldwide standards for seamless global interconnection.
