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.

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".

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.

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.

to cocoe and Neon who did a lot of testing and made
more than half of all public submissions. As a reminder, to view detailed
list of CPU features for your processors, and at the same time submit
it to our server you will need to download and run CWID
program. Submitted CPU ID data will not be accessible by other
site visitors unless you decide to make it public (and we encourage
you to do so). |

It's been a long time since I added new CPU family to
the site. Last time it was Intel 80376 family, and it was added on
last year on November 16. Due to recent backend script updates, it's
much easier for me to keep up with new CPU releases, and I have some
extra time to spend on adding older CPU families. Today I added VIA
C7-D family. Unfortunately, I wasn't able to find a C7-D datasheet,
therefore all information for C7-D pages was gathered from other public
sources: VIA website, press releases, processor pictures, CPUID information,
and so on. |

I've made a few improvements to the S-Spec database
and S-Spec search/identification pages. The S-spec database now handles
non-unique S-Spec numbers - each of those numbers is now displayed
on a separate page.
S-Spec search tool now displays L3 cache size, the number of cores
and socket type instead of L1 cache size and package type. Identification
script now shows more details about the S-Spec than before. |

New Xeon 3500

have access to e-mail or to the site. All submitted pictures and comments
will be approved, and all e-mails will be answered when I get back.

I've made a few changes to CPU
identification tool. When CPU identification is submitted, our
online script now uses submitted data to guess manufacturer, family
and model of the CPU. The information page now displays additional
data - CPU ID data as well as data provided by person who submitted
it. I also created a listing of recent
public submissions - this one will be enhanced next week to allow
filtering submissions by manufacturer, family and model. That was
the major site change for this week, and last week I updated CPU-Upgrade
website. |

I created a small
Windows program that you can use to identify CPU features. The
idea behind the program is quite simple - you download and run it,
it uses cpuid instruction to get data about your CPU, sends the data
to our server, and then opens a web page with identification data
from our server. Here is an example of CPU features page for Intel
Q9550 microprocessor. You can find more details about the program,
and the program itself on the CPU
identification page. Please note that program and the CPU features
page were just developed, and were not tested on all combinations
of CPU / Windows OS. Consider it a beta software. We encourage everybody
to try our new identification utility.
A note about the reasons why we created the program. Our primary
goal was to provide an easy way to identify the CPU and to view
all processor features on one page. The second goal was to collect
CPU identification data. The data will be used in the future to
update processor features on our CPU pages for those modern microprocessors
that are not listed on AMD and Intel sites, such as mobile and OEM-only
processors.

I completed the first phase of rewriting backend scripts.
Certain types of site updates (AMD stepping codes, S-Spec numbers,
CPU chart data) now take much less of my time. In the next two weeks
I will concentrate on updating the site, and then proceed to second
phase of rewriting the scripts. Besides working on the scripts, in
the past three weeks I added Phenom
II X3 and Phenom
II X4 processors, posted Opteron and Athlon 64 price charts, and
added several glossary pages. |

Below is the list of the most important site updates
in the past two weeks:
- If you have any pictures of CPUs, microcontrollers or other
chips, or any related pictures, you can upload them to CPU
Pictures submissions page. Of course, these should pictures
taken by you, and not taken from the net.
- I posted information on recently released AMD and Intel mobile
processors, low power Intel quad-core CPUs and on two dual-core
desktop Intel processors.
- Added Socket
479 page.
- Re-arranged processors on Celeron
and Pentium III family
pages. Covington and Mendocino Celeron processors are no longer
combined into the same sub-family, and Coppermine Slot 1 and socket
370 CPUs are no longer split into two sub-families.
- You can now filter the list of displayed families or processors
by typing partial family or CPU name. See, for example, how it
is done on Core 2 family
page.

I added information about recently released Athlon
X2 and Phenom II
X4 CPUs. I also started re-writing some of site's backend scripts
- these are the scripts that I use to add new information, generate
HTML pages and copy the pages to the site. Re-writing of all these
scripts may take a while, possibly months, because it will be done
in parallel with site updates. Some of site's functionality will be
changed as a result of this rewrite. I expect that CPU and S-Spec
charts will be changed, and a few new features will be added - the
search for CPU name on CPU pages, and other features. New backend
scripts should reduce my non-productive time, i.e. time I spend copying
files, verifying that the information is correctly updated, etc, which
in turn will allow me to spend more time on actual updates. |

Many new S-spec codes were added to the S-Spec database.
I also posted information on missing from our site OEM-only Core 2
Duo mobile processors, and a few desktop and mobile processors that
will be released this or next month. To see all upcoming and recently
released microprocessors I created Desktop
CPU releases page. Similar page with release dates of mobile AMD
and Intel microprocessors will be added later this week. |

to display a timeline of modern desktop microprocessors with links
to most important CPU families. |

Last week I've made another change to comments - users,
registered in CPU-World forum, can now post the comments without pre-moderation.
Please avoid posting unrelated comments or troubleshooting/upgrade
questions - those will be removed. From other updates I wanted to
mention a few new uploaded benchmarks. |

This week I've made a few modifications to CPU and S-spec
pages:
- From now on all CPU pictures uploaded by site visitors will
be displayed in the pictures section of CPU pages. You can see
how it looks on the Core
2 Duo E8200 page. Almost all previously uploaded pictures
(there are more than 1000 of them) are currently displayed as
comments. I will eventually fix all of them.
- Many CPU and all S-Spec pages now include "Link to this page"
feature, which allows any site visitor to get a link to the CPU/S-spec
page as an HTML or BB code.
- Many CPU and all S-spec pages now have "Get HTML code" feature.
This feature will be mostly useful for people who wants to post
CPU or S-spec information on eBay and other auction sites. To
use it click on the "Get HTML code" link on a page, select desired
information style in a popup window, grab a generated HTML code
and include it in your auction description.

There were no major updates on the CPU-World in the
past two weeks. Most on my time I spent updating my other site - CPU-Upgrade. There will be a few more updates
on the CPU-Upgrade.com, after that I'll get back to working on the
CPU-World. |

Last week's changes:
- I posted benchmark results of socket 775 and socket AM2/AM2+
processors. We now have some Phenom X4 benchmarks, so overall
our CPU benchmark
chart has pretty good coverage of many all modern processors
with the exception of the most expensive ones (Core 2 Quad, Core
2 Extreme, Xeons). For many processors we added Euler3D, WinRAR
and 7-Zip benchmarks. Benchmark chart was slightly improved -
you can now quickly see next / previous benchmark results by clicking
on the "Previous" and "Next" buttons, and the chart now remembers
selected processor.
- Many S-Spec numbers were added to the site, probably half of
them are qualification and engineering samples.
- Uploaded pictures of AMD
Opteron processors (see below).
