Does arch support " Intel Core i7-920 processor(8MB L3 Cache, 2."

Hi, i'm new to linux as well as Arch .  But would like to try Arch , since lot of linux users says Arch is good. I got my new home pc with  " Intel® Core™ i7-920 processor(8MB L3 Cache, 2.66GHz) " . Does Arch supports this processor to it's full potential. Did a search in the forums . I could not find the answer. Thanks in advance.

As an x86 compatible CPU, why would it not be supported? Newer stuff is backwards compatible; you should worry about older stuff not being supported anymore, due to the new instructions introduced in more recent products.
Also, we've had this kind of questions before: http://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=88585

  • Does arch support Intel's IRRT tech?

    I plan to install arch on my Dell E6400 notebook.
    Should I use AHCI mode or IRRT mode to install?

  • Is The Intel HD Graphics 4000 And The Intel Core i3-3110M Processor Good For Premier?

    Dear Forums Members,
    Latley I've been looking for a laptop that can fit my video edting needs + some office work. What i need from Premier is the abilty to edit SD quality videos, my budget is not that high ( + I live in Israel where everything is more expesnive ).
    I've been thinking about the Lenovo IdeaPad G500 5938-9998 wich comes with a Intel® Core™ i3-3110M Processor and Intel® HD Graphics 4000 and 4GB RAM and 500GB Sata (5400RPM) Hard Drive.
    My Quastion is: will it be ok to edit SD videos in premier 6 or 5? and if not, wich premier IS good for this specific computer?
    Thanks ahead, Jonathan.

    Jonathan, If you mean the old Premiere 6 or Premiere 5, then those versions of Premiere are extremely old and severely outdated. In fact, Premiere 6 was released before Windows XP even came out. As such, you may have serious trouble running Premiere 6 (not to be confused with Premiere Pro CS6) on newer versions of Windows such as Windows 7 or Windows 8.x.
    On the other hand, if you mean Premiere Pro CS6 or CS5.x, then that planned laptop is too weak to handle much of anything (video editing related), especially since that i3-3110M CPU is only a dual-core CPU that's capped at 2.4GHz and that CS6/5 does not support GPU acceleration for any non-Nvidia or any integrated GPUs. As such, I second the responses suggesting the cheapo consumer version of Premiere, Premiere Elements (the current release is 12.0).

    If you are running 10.6.8 you can download 10.9 from the App Store and install it with going through 10.7 and 10.8 first. 10.9 Mavericks is a free download in the App Store.
    10.9 Mavericks will require at least 2gb of RAM but really needs 4gb to run smoothly.
    As for third party programs see this list for compatibility with 10.9 http://roaringapps.com/apps:table
    Also Mavericks doesn't run any Power PC programs. To see if you have any Power PC programs go to the Apple in the upper left corner and select About This Mac, then click on More Info. When System Profiler comes up select Applications under Software. Then look under Kind to see if any of your applications are listed as Power PC. Universal and Intel will run under Mavericks.
    Before Mac switched to Intel processors in 2006 they used Power PC processors from 1994 to 2005. Power PC 601 through 604, G3, G4 and G5. Applications written for the Power PC processors need the application called Rosetta to run on Intel processors. This was part of the Operating System in 10.4 and 10.5 but was an optional install in 10.6. With 10.7 Lion Apple dropped all support for Power PC applications.

    You need minimally Snow Leopard 10.6.8.
    Upgrading to Snow Leopard
    You can purchase Snow Leopard through the Apple Store: Mac OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard - Apple Store (U.S.). The price is $19.99 plus tax. You will be sent physical media by mail after placing your order.
    After you install Snow Leopard you will have to download and install the Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo v1.1 to update Snow Leopard to 10.6.8 and give you access to the App Store. Access to the App Store enables you to download Mountain Lion if your computer meets the requirements.
         Snow Leopard General Requirements
           1. Mac computer with an Intel processor
           2. 1GB of memory
           3. 5GB of available disk space
           4. DVD drive for installation
           5. Some features require a compatible Internet service provider;
               fees may apply.
           6. Some features require Apple’s iCloud services; fees and
               terms apply.
    Upgrading from Snow Leopard to Lion or Mavericks
    To upgrade to Mavericks you must have Snow Leopard 10.6.8, Lion, or Mountain Lion installed. Purchase and download Mavericks (Free) from the App Store. Sign in using your Apple ID. The file is quite large, over 5 GBs, so allow some time to download. It would be preferable to use Ethernet because it is nearly four times faster than wireless.
         OS X Mavericks- System Requirements
           Macs that can be upgraded to OS X Mavericks
             1. iMac (Mid 2007 or newer) — Model Identifier 7,1 or later
             2. MacBook (Late 2008 Aluminum, or Early 2009 or newer) —
                 Model Identifier 5,1 or later
             3. MacBook Pro (Mid/Late 2007 or newer) — Model Identifier 3,1 or later
             4. MacBook Air (Late 2008 or newer) — Model Identifier 2,1 or later
             5. Mac mini (Early 2009 or newer) — Model Identifier 3,1 or later
             6. Mac Pro (Early 2008 or newer) — Model Identifier 3,1 or later
             7. Xserve (Early 2009) — Model Identifier 3,1 or later
    To find the model identifier open System Profiler in the Utilities folder. It's displayed in the panel on the right.
    Are my applications compatible?
             See App Compatibility Table — RoaringApps.
    Upgrading to Lion
    If your computer does not meet the requirements to install Mavericks, it may still meet the requirements to install Lion.
    You can purchase Lion at the Online Apple Store. The cost is $19.99 (as it was before) plus tax.  It's a download. You will get an email containing a redemption code that you then use at the Mac App Store to download Lion. Save a copy of that installer to your Downloads folder because the installer deletes itself at the end of the installation.
         Lion System Requirements
           1. Mac computer with an Intel Core 2 Duo, Core i3, Core i5, Core i7,
               or Xeon processor
           2. 2GB of memory
           3. OS X v10.6.6 or later (v10.6.8 recommended)
           4. 7GB of available space
           5. Some features require an Apple ID; terms apply.

  • I have a Mac book operating on Version 10.5.8 this won't let me down load version 10.7 itunes. Is it possible possible to down load a new operating systen to my Mac it has a 2.4 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo processor

    i have a Mac book operating on Version 10.5.8 this won't let me down load version 10.7 itunes. Is it possible possible to down load a new operating systen to my Mac it has a 2.4 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo processor & 2 GB 667 MHz DDR2 2SDRAM of Memory.

    Hi Andy, yes it's a paid Upgrade...
    First you need to research all the problems people are having with the higher OSX versions, & make sure you have a bootable clone of what you have just in case.
    then you must get 10.6 if they still have it, install it & update to 10.6.8 so you have the App Store to buy & download the huge 10.8 Installer.
    Snow Leopard/10.6.x Requirements...
    General requirements
       * Mac computer with an Intel processor
        * 1GB of memory (I say 4GB at least, more if you can afford it)
        * 5GB of available disk space (I say 30GB at least)
        * DVD drive for installation
        * Some features require a compatible Internet service provider; fees may apply.
        * Some features require Apple’s MobileMe service; fees and terms apply.
    Which apps work with Mac OS X 10.6?...
    http://snowleopard.wikidot.com/
    It's been pulled from the online store & Apple Stores, so you have to call Apple to buy it, last I heard.
    Call Apple Sales...in the US: 1-800-MY-APPLE. Or Support... 1-800-275-2273

  • Lightroom 5 with a 2 GHZ Intel Core 2 Duo processor?

    I just bought and installed LR5 and it is not importing or even opening folders of images on my hard drive.  I have a MacBook with a 2 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo processor and I see on the packaging that the software requires a Multicore Intel processor with 64-bit support.  I am not sure if this is the problem.  I otherwise meet all the requirements.
    Can someone help?

    I think you are right at the minimum specs.... but you should still be able to oprate even at a slow spped.
    How are you trying to import and please don't have threads /post in different forums and with similar questions. It wastes a lot of time reading the same/similar things over and over.
    We'll sort you out ok though!!

  • W530 Intel Core i7-3720QM processor and tweaking?

    1: Is there any knowledge of specific problems with the: 
    Intel Core i7-3720QM processor (6M Cache) on the W530's that prompted Lenovo to eliminate this processor from
    the processors available now?
    The tech said that IBM elected to go with better processors, but it seems to me, that there must be some reasoning behind "the better."
    Curious about the experience others are having with their W530's equipped with such, please.
    2: Also, the Technical aspects, taken from the: W530 Tech Specs page... clearly states that the aforementioned processor  IS: 3.60 GHz. Nothing there about UP TO.
    My W530 runs at 2.60 GHz... according to my System specifics. 
        When I asked the salesman about this, he just told me that the technical department can tweak it up to 3.60 GHz..
    which will drain the battery life..And that is why it was not set above 2.60 GHz  when shipped to me.
    I would like to know other's thoughts about this tweaking of this processor. 
    I need the machine for photo manipulation and for website involvement. I usually have a few+ windows open at one time. 
    I want to tell you that I am not computer savvy at all (I imagine that is plainly seen.) 
    I am: a 67 year old jeweler in my wintering years who, frankly, does not know how to deal with the stress of all of these computer problems I am having with this WHEW... and, at the same time... trying to figure all of this out with your help.
    Lastly, I want to say that I am very grateful for the help you give me. I sincerely am.
    As all artists of my age... I am in a rush to concretely have mattered in my field,.. while I still have time. That is about all I am good for... and at.
    Thank you, sincerely, for your time, know that I shall always be appreciative of it.

  • I have an iMac purchased new about 5 years ago with OS 10.4.11. I would like to upgrade to Lion. I currently have a 2.33 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo processor with 2 GB of ram. Can I upgrade to Lion, and what is the best way to do so?

    I have an iMac purchased new about 5 years ago with OS 10.4.11. I would like to upgrade to Lion. I currently have a 2.33 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo processor with 2 GB of ram. Can I upgrade to Lion, and what is the best way to do so?

    From what I read here:
    http://www.tuaw.com/2011/06/06/lion-...u-2-gb-of-ram/
    s long as they already have Snow Leopard 10.6.8 installed in it.All a person needs to do with that type of iMac is to upgrade/max out their Ram. They claim that an Interl iMac with Core 2 Duo is all that is needed, as long as it has OS 10.6.8 installed. They say you don`t need  the "Core i3, Core i5, Core i7, or Xeon processor"
    But I wonder about the RAM speed, the iMac 2.33Ghz uses DDR2 SDRAM,  which I believe is rated at 667Mhz. Lion maybe installed but it might be problems running smoothly or not?
    Did some quick checking and the iMacs apple is selling this year use 1333MHz DDR3 SDRAM.
    The only thing to do is to make sure you have a good back-up, Install your RAM and install Snow Leo, then wait a couple of hours and install Lion.
    Good Luck
