The Key features of the new CPUs include the return of Intel's famous HyperThreading technology, meaning that the CPUs can work on 8 threads at the same time, double that of the Core 2 Quad CPUs that were the top of the line CPU in the previous generation. The new CPUs are faster in applications that take advantage of multiple cores, which means that programs installed on your computer that can take advantage of multi-core technology will run much faster. As of now the 920 is slated to hit the streets for $284 in a few weeks. The hardcore gamer wanting the most out of their Core i7 CPU will want the 965 which will run $999, a bit higher in price, but for those who must have the best at the moment this is it folks.
