Intel Heatspreader through the ages – measurement data, curvature and surface
We went through AMD in detail and we had already talked about the heatspreaders of the current generations, burn-in and the thing with the curvature. Finally, the picture gallery for the individual Intel CPUs follows.
Basic article: “CPU heatspreader examined in detail – do we now have to rethink AMD and Intel?“
Picture story part 1: “AMD Heatspreader through the ages – measurement data, curvature and surface”
Let’s start in the 1990s, when computers were still real luxury goods. The oldest measured CPU is an MMX after 1995:
- 1 – Pentium MMX (1992-99)
- 2 – Celeron SL6JV 1.4 GHz (2000)
- 3 – Pentium 4 (2000-2008)
- 4 – Xeon (2002-2006)
- 5 – Celeron 530 (2006)
- 6 – Core2Quad (2007)
- 7 – Core i5 (2012, Ivy Bridge)
- 8 – Celeron G3900 (2015)
- 9 – Core i3 (2017, Coffee Lake)
- 10 – Core i9 (ab 2017, Skylake-X)
