Investing Considerations For Intel Core i7
We have covered plenty of the features that are newely introduced in market with the launch of Intel’s Core i7 processor. But let’s take an overview that how your Intel Core i7 works on financial tests.
As we know that, this new processor was most awaited by gaing geeks, extreme end users, corporate world as well as application based computing users.
Intel’s Turbo Boosting, Quick Path Technology, Hyper Threading have made it today the fastest processor on the planet. No doubt it is high on its performance. Technically speaking it is one of the masterpiece made with semiconductors.
But we have to take look at largest market of that home users who are not gamers and geeks nor the corporates. Where Intel i7 920 cost’s around $299, Core i7 Extreme edition which is fastest today cost more that $800 which is far out of reach of common man.
If we consider the last few launches like Core 2 Duo or Dual core from Intel, they were so affordable that they are now on 40% of the PC’s in the world. But if we compare the scenario with Core i7, it is only limited to the corporate world, Because only they can afford it.
No doubt, it is cost effective, it gives best performance, better for gamers and for all types of graphic usage too. But still $800 should not be the costing of i7.
Intel have to think over this facts and they should either launch a low cost version or they need to make some changes in its hardware to reduce the cost. Because without which it can not spread in the market as Core 2 Duo.
None the less they should consider their rival AMD which is offering quad core 2 at very low cost compared to i7. They can surely bring new technology to beat the i7, and if they manage to reduce its cost; Intel can have serious commercial problems with core i7.
So this are some of the financial aspect which are related to common PC users, Not even the users Intel should also think over it again.
