Intel Westmere 32nm & Clarkdale Core i5-661 Review - Intel fuses its new 32nm Westmere processor along with its 45nm GPU onto one package. This is Intel's new Clarkdale CPU that will be officially known as Intel Core i5-6XX and Intel Core i3-5XX series processors. Today we look at the Core i5-661 which we compare to the Core i5-750, Core i7-965, and AMD Phenom II X4.

The new Clarkdale core processors are a new engineering marvel from Intel. The new Core i5 and Core i3 processors will both serve its intended market very well. These are obviously not enthusiast products though, although some of us will possibly find the lowest end Clarkdale Core i3-530 to be a fun play toy or HTPC gem.
