Intel Core i5-661 Processor BX80616I5661 Review

Intel continues filling out its processor lineup with the introduction of the 2010 Intel Core Processor Family, comprising new versions of Core i3, Core i5, and Core i7 processors. The new Core i3 and Core i5 processors use Intel\'s new \"Westmere\" architecture, which brings facets of Intel\'s \"Nehalem\" design to the lower-end desktop CPUs (code-named \"Clarkdale\") and mobile CPUs (code-named \"Arrandale\").
