Intel Core i7-3610QM Tested

btarunr · Mar 20, 2012, 11:05 AM

Several next-generation performance-segment notebook models across brands, will be driven by Intel's Core i7-3610QM, a quad-core chip based on the 22 nm Ivy Bridge silicon, clocked at 2.30 GHz (3.30 GHz Turbo), featuring 6 MB L3 cache. The chip features the complete instruction-set of Intel's third-generation Core processor family. DonanimHaber got to test a Samsung notebook that's based on this chip (which also uses NVIDIA GeForce GT 650M graphics), the chip was put through SuperPi 1M and 2M; and Cinebench R11. The chip crunched Pi 1M in 11.66 s, and 2M in 26.67 s. It scored 6.09 pts in Cinebench, which is a higher score than that of AMD FX-8150, DonanimHaber notes.

it's the most funny thing

i have lost all faith in AMD's cpu segment

if they will focus on their smaller cpu's/apu's or wutdafuq its called and their graphics it will be good

oh yeah, the new i7 looks mighty good :O

OMG an Intel mobile chip beats AMD's monster desktop..?

radarblade · Mar 20, 2012, 12:05 PM

Damn! Those are like desktop 2600K scores! Ivy is packing a serious punch in it's mobile department.

D4S4 · Mar 20, 2012, 12:28 PM

the 3.3ghz turbo might have had something to do with it. i wonder what kind of clock speeds will the desktop variations run

Assimilator · Mar 20, 2012, 12:37 PM

AMD's fastest desktop CPU beaten by Intel's fastest laptop CPU... that's sad any way you slice it.

NHKS · Mar 20, 2012, 12:38 PM

& this isnt even the 'extreme'(i7-3???XM) edition..

The old mobile 6 core I7s beat the desktop phenom IIs, i am willing to bet this has been happening for many generations thus nothing has changed.

CAT-THE-FIFTH · Mar 20, 2012, 01:13 PM

The score is higher than a Core i7 975 Extreme Edition:

pjladyfox · Mar 20, 2012, 05:08 PM

Guess I was the only one who was more interested in scores for the NVIDIA GeForce GT 650M than the CPU score. I mean, I like AMD but the entire Intel beating an AMD CPU at this point is like the local school jocks giving a swirlie to one of the nerds; sad it happens but not really a surprise anymore.

dieterd · Mar 20, 2012, 05:14 PM

and this is only the weakest quadcore mobile processor, what preformance will i7-38xx QM and i7-39xx XM show.... those quad i7-26xx are very affordable so i7-36xx should make no difference, but to bad that real buyable products of thease will apear in the end of Q3

It doesn't make it any less pathetic, regardless of if it's SOP or not.

In the Cinebench it beats the desktop Intel i7 970. What's that say about Intel's desktop parts?

So when is the leak going to happen with Wprime instead of the dated Super Pi that uses expired and non supported code path? (SSE vs x87 respectively)

I love how all the Intel leaks always use absolutely worthless benchmarks to tell us any potential (or lack of) that the CPU has.

LOL could you be more transparent, only an AMD fanboy would claim tests to be pointless that make AMD look bad, yet if it looked good for AMD they would be very important.

The chip performs well, very well apparently, deal!

Its a good thing Intel doesn't compete with Intel.

Also, SuperPi doesn't need to be optimized because its not a tool to compare different architectures.

Since when did Intel produce a mobile 6 core part?

No need to, A quad is still better than any thing AMD has.

In no way was i denying that, i was just trying to point out this is not a new thing since bulldozer, really it is just AMD getting it's ass kicked in the CPU market as usual for recent years.

I may possibly be wrong

but if so i blame Eurocom for selling 6 core i7's in laptops.

Explain an AMD fanboy that spends $500 on an Intel part? I'd love to hear it.

The problem is that nothing runs x87 code anymore, so why use it in a leak?

Plus support for it was dropped in BD which is why Stars is faster in Super Pi. The majority of code is SSE in some version which is why I suggested wPrime but there is also y-cruncher.

I agree .

Funny how AMD fanboys hand pick a benchmark and say the rest mean nothing! Oh that one is too old or that one doesn't count! GIVE ME A BREAK!
