Jul 1 I started working on the second phase of re-writing of backend scripts. This phase will take longer than the first phase, that was completed in February of this year, and it should improve or simplify many things, like adding or renaming existing CPU pages, updating CPU Chart data, etc. So far I've made two changes to CPU pages for three Intel families - the pages now list CPU and box part numbers in the "General information" section along with related s-spec numbers, and list all core steppings in the "Architecture / Microarchitecture" section. See how it looks on the Core i7-950 page.

Jun 24 I'm going to be out of country for five days, and during that time I will have only limited access to internet. All submitted comments will be approved, and all e-mails will be answered when I get back.

Jun 21 CPUID browse pages now display core revision for AMD K8 and K10 microprocessors. I also modified the browse page to generate correct CPU name string for K10 microprocessors - that is useful if your motherboard's BIOS is not up-to-date, and it doesn't set correct CPU name for CPUID instruction. The generated CPU name is displayed only when it differs from CPU name string returned by the CPUID instruction. As an example, see CPUID information on Phenom II X3 710 processor. For that processor old version of BIOS returned "AMD Processor model unknown", while the CPU name string should be "AMD Phenom(tm) II X3 710 Processor".

Jun 20 I added recently submitted benchmarks page. Also, in the last few days I posted new benchmarks for about 20 different AMD and Intel processors, including old processors, like Celeron D or Pentium 4, and several CPUs released not long ago, such as Pentium Dual-Core E6300 and AMD Athlon II X2 250.

Jun 17 New CPUs:

Jun 15 I've made a few changes to how CPU family pages are generated, and now the lists of processors or CPU families may include not only pictures taken by me, but also pictures uploaded by site visitors. See, for example, how it looks on the K10 family page. Selection of pictures for lists of families and CPUs is manual, and it is done by me. So far I updated only K8 and K10 family pages.

Jun 14 I posted pictures of boxed Pentium microprocessors. [more]

Jun 11 New CPUs:

Jun 10 New CPUs:

Jun 7 I posted benchmarks of 9 socket AM2/AM2+ processors, including benchmarks of a few Phenom II X2 and Phenom II X3 CPUs.

Jun 6 New pages:

Jun 5 I added pictures of socket 775 processors: Pentium D, Celeron 400 series, Celeron Dual-Core, Pentium Dual-Core, Core 2 Duo and Xeon. [more]

Jun 3 New CPUs:

Jun 2 I updated information on AMD Phenom II X2 and Athlon II X2 processors that were released today. I also added several things to CPU browse page - it now displays frequency of tested processors, you can see now more than 20 last submitted results, and all displayed results can be sorted.

Jun 1 It was a busy day for me today... AMD released six-core Opteron processors, and Intel posted S-Spec numbers of new microprocessors, including Core I7-950 and Core i7-975 CPUs. I didn't have time to research information on all processors, so today I added only new Intel CPUs, and I will add Opteron processors in the next two days.
