We're adding two new models to our processor reviews page today. One a quad core and the other just a dual core.

The first is a high-end model, the Core i7 940. With its four cores, it's amongst the fastest in its category. We have also analysed its energy consumption and how it does in gaming.

Next we have the Core i5 680. This is a dual core mid-range model. One of its specificities is that it has an integrated graphics chip.

Don't forget you can take a look at all our results in the processor face-off. We also have a summary table of CPU performance. You can consult the average performance levels of all processors we've tested there.
