To continue to provide the best technology that will enable its numerous customers work better and faster, Intel Corporation has unveiled the world latest and fastest Processor Core i7 consumer desktop platform into the Nigerian market. The world biggest chip maker presented the new Processor at the yearly channel conference in Lagos, recently.
Intel Channel Conference is an annual parley used to educate and sensitize distributors, resellers and assemblers on the road maps of the company as well as to empower them with strategies that will enable them develop their businesses.  The major focus for this year’s channel conference is the launch of Core i7 consumer desktop platform processor.
The Core i7 Processor is the first member of a new family of Nehalem Processor designs and is the most sophisticated ever built, with new technologies that boost performance on demand and maximize data output. The Core i7 Processor speeds video editing, immersive games and other popular Internet and computer activities by up to 40 percent without increasing power consumption.
David Ibhawoh,  Intel Business Lead for West Africa, said that, “our focus as a company is to invest in our partners and offer products  that will drive the growth of the businesses,  that is why we are introducing the core i7 Processor, which is the best Processor Intel has ever produced. Core i7 is improved technologies that, help you do more with less power consumption. It enables you do remote check as you work and it has a very high function.”
Ibhawoh further stated that Intel values its partners so much that it provides them with opportunity that will enhance their businesses as they contribute immensely to the growth and development of business in Africa.   
At the presentation of the product, . Babatunde Robinson, Channel Field sales engineer stated that, “’Intel's unique Turbo Boost Technology accelerates performance to match computer users’ needs and workloads. Through a sophisticated on-die power control unit and using new ‘power gate’ transistors based on Intel's advanced 45 nanometer, high-k metal gate manufacturing process, Turbo Boost automatically adjusts the clock speed of one or more of the four individual Processing cores for single- and multi-threaded applications to boost performance, without increasing power consumption. The Core i7 also has the latest Intel power-saving technologies, allowing desktops to go into sleep states formerly reserved for Intel-based notebooks.”
He explained that, the Core i7 Processor more than doubles the memory bandwidth of previous Intel "Extreme" platforms, speeding the transfer of computer bits and bites in and out of the Processor with Intel Quickpath Technology. Designed with Intel's Hyper-Threading Technology, the processor also allows multiple computing threads to run simultaneously, effectively enabling it to do two things at once. As a result, the Core i7 quad-core processor delivers 8-threaded performance.
Intel Core i7 Processor , according to Robinson  offers unrivalled performance for immersive 3-D games - over 40 percent faster than previous Intel high-performance processors on both the 3DMark Vantage CPU physics and AI tests, popular industry computer benchmarks that measure gaming performance.
