ThinkPad X1 With A Quad-Core CPU

A few months ago, I came across an Anandtech article suggesting the X1 will have a quad-core i7 option by the end of summer. Well summer is almost over and I am wondering if any Lenovo staff member can confirm or deny the claims from this article. Thanks!

Someone high up in Australia.
I don't think Lenovo can tell you much about future potential parts list as this may affect sale.

Is there a quad core cpu for my macbook 13in pro early 2011 with the socket P8400

Is there a quad core cpu for my macbook 13in pro early 2011 with the socket P8400?
The duel core is not doing the work i need done....

You cannot upgrade the CPU on a notebook. They are integrated onto the motherboard. Sell the one you have then purchase a new one with the quad-core CPU.

Quad-core CPU?

Hi All,
We are looking to upgrade of database machine for OCS 10g. If we purchase a machine with a quad-core cpu, will the database be able to take advantage of it? Or are we better of with multiple dual-core processors? Or one dual-core processor? Has anyone upgraded recently? Or have any insights?
Thoughts would be greatly appreciated...
--Bill

All X series ThinkPads, tablet or not, have the CPU soldered onto the board, and not socketed. This has been the case from the days of X20, almost 15 years ago.
So no, you can't swap the CPU unless you are in possession of proper re-balling equipment along with the skills to use it.
Furthermore, a BIOS support for a quad-core CPU would have to exist, which I doubt is presently the case on X series.
Cheers,

Licensing and quad core CPU`s

Hi I hope someone can help me here.
We have CF8 enterprise edition installed on a 32 bit OS with 2 dual core CPU`s.
What I want to know is, can I use the same license to migrate CF8 to a new server that has a 64 bit OS with 2 quad core CPU`s.
Also are there any other issues to take into account?.
Any thoughts from anyone who has experience with this kind of thing would be appreciated. Thank you :-)
P.S I tried asking Adobe customer support but it was a waste of time, they couldnt understand the question. My question does make sense right?

Seconded. Once of the nice things about their licensing is that it actually specified "physical" cpus rather than just cores, as Microsoft stuff often does.
Twin octo-core CPUs for the win!

I would like to know if I can install Microsoft Server 2008 Enterprise or Standard Edition on a Laptop having Intel Pentium Quad-Core CPU N3530 (2.16 GHz). Currently it has Window 8. I do not need Windows 8 and would like to install Microsoft Server 2008
Enterprise or Standard Edition.
Will it work ?
Thnx.

Hi Zahid-I,
We support the Windows server system install on the certified hardware you can search ask your hardware vendor for exactly supported system or you can search the Windows Server
Catalog to found whether your hardware certified by server 2008, personal experience is most of the laptop not supported the server system.

Quad core CPU in x230T?

I realize that even if it were possible, cooling would be the primary issue. But I am curious if, say, an i7-3612QM might work in the socket on the mobo. It is rated at 35W, just like the i5-3320m currently installed in mine. Via Intel's ARK, they should both work in the 988 socket on the x230T's mobo.
Solved!

Seconds() function issue on Quad Core CPU

Hello,
I am noticing some timing issues using Seconds() function on a Quad Core computer. The optional boolean in Seconds() is True (by default).
With Core 2 Duo CPUs, the seconds() function is reporting elapsed time (since TestStand startup) correctly. However, I noticed on a Quad Core CPU that the seconds(True) function reports ~0.5s every 1 second. In other words, seconds() elapsed is incorrectly reported. Has anyone observed such issue?
When the boolean parameter is set to False [i.e. Seconds(False)], there is no problem observed on Quad Core CPU.

Howdy Troy,
I don't have a quad core to duplicate your issue, but it sounds plausible. Since this is an older version of TestStand that was developed before multicores went mainstream, this very well may be expected behavior.
You might instead call directly into the Windows API using kernel32.dll--particularly one of these functions:
GetSystemTime
GetSystemTimes (for multicore)
GetTickCount
External Link: MSDN: Time Functions (Windows)
Judging from the nature of your question, I think GetTickCount would suit you best.
I hope this helps!
Warm regards,
pBerg

New Quad Core CPU

As you all know Intel will be introducing the new quad core CPU soon. Is Apple going to introduce several totally new design desktops equipped with quad core CPUs? Or is Apple only going to offer an optional upgrade to quad core CPUs for their current three Mac Pros?

At first.
I think technology hit a wall... a heat dissipation wall.
The plan seems to be to reduce the speed and power and
compensate by brodening the force-area. This reduces
escaping power and produces more efficiency per power
unit. This is just simple coefficients.
Like if I had 8 procs each running at 1GHtz it's going to
aproach the speed of a single 7 or 8GHtz unit but at a
fraction of the power consumption and a magnitude of the
efficiency. This shift started five or six years ago.
http://tweakers.net/ext/i.dsp/1066381706.jpg <- 5 years ago
Maybe more. 64way units are already here. Though I bet we
don't see them on desktops for a good while. When this
reaches it's limits who knows what's up next? Chemical or
Atomic Phase processors? Shrug. World War Three not
withstanding..

Hp Pvillion G6 2005ax with AMD Quad Core is showing blank Screen after latest BIOS Update

Hi
I have strange issue after the Hp Software Update. Recently i have connected to High Speed internet and Hp Asistant shown a Bios update for my System and i chose download. after that my Hp Pvillion G6 2005ax with AMD Quad Core is showing blank Screen and Caps Lock button Blinks Randomly and F12 Button also on. Kindly Suggest a Solution for this. I have been irritated by Hp Customer Care support.

for any help you can send or i am availbale on above contact address.

Hello , Welcome to the HP Support Forums! It is a great place to find the help you need, both from other users, HP experts and other support personnel. I read your post about the BIOS, and wanted to assist you! The blank screen and blinking of your Caps Lock, is the system trying to give you the error code for the issue your notebook is having. You can review the following document for further assistance, if needed:HP Notebook PCs - Computer Does Not Start and Emits an LED or Beep Code Please note the blinking sequence of your Caps Lock, and follow the instructions in the document above. From the information that you provided, it is possible that the blink code will be related to a BIOS error. You can always try performing a System Restore, to set the notebook back to a previous working point. You can also try checking this site for BIOS drivers. Once there, you can select your Operating System and click "Update", you should be able to access and download the BIOS drivers. If you downloaded the latest driver from that site, try uninstalling the driver and installing the previous version. Please let me know if this information was helpful by clicking the thumbs up below.

Jvm on quad-core cpu

does anyone know some good literature
about how the jvm can utilize
the parellism power of a quad-core cpu?
even without spawning a java thread, or otherwise
trying for parallelism, the jvm will run faster because....?
its up to xp pro to utilize the 4 cores, right?
the jvm can't "known" about the 4 cores?
please give me some links to good
documentation
thanks.

System.out.println("Core count: " + Runtime.getRuntime().availableProcessors());This code returns '4' for my twin dual-core machine.
Some of the classes in java.util.concurrent make use of this method.

Welcome to the Apple Community.
Probably because your set up doesn't support HDCP.

Can DIAdem 2012 use multiple processors on Quad Core CPU?

Hi,
I am running scripts in DIAdem 2012 which take upwards of 10 minutes to complete. However, I notice my CPU usage never goes above 15% during this time. My understanding is that that generally suggests the software is not 64-bit compatible and therefore not taking advantage of the other cores (I'm on a quad-core i7). I also have 12gb ram and that is not being heavily taxed by DIAdem either.
Anybody know how I can squeeze some extra juice out of my computer to help DIAdem run faster? Thanks!

Hello Mark,
Multi-core support only makes sense for very few operations in DIAdem (i.e. Large amounts of data being sent through an FFT routine) and is currently not supported. Also, 64-bit only makes a difference when working with very large data files.
That said, there are ways to improve processing speed in DIAdem without using extra cores or 64-bit versions of software. My best suggestion is to get in touch with our senior Product Support Engineer (Dr. Brad Turpin) and combing through your Script(s) to see where there is potential to improve processing speeds by optimizing the Script(s). I'm not implying that your Script(s) are badly written, I just know from experience that changing a few things in the Script(s) has lead to reduced processing times by using optimized functions in DIAdem that you might not be aware of.
Dr. Turpin can be reached at this email address: brad DOT turpin @ ni DOT com
Please reference this forum thread when you contact him.

Kingston memory - KVR13LSE9/8 - has anyone used with W520 Quad core?

I have to order my memory for upgrade from a company catalog. The memory recommended on the Kingston website for the W520 quadcore is not available (TL-TP3B/8G - DDR3, 1333MHz, Non-ECC, CL9, X8, 1.5V, Unbuffered, SODIMM, 204-pin). However, KVR13LSE9/8 is available and appears to be the right specs (Kingston 8GB ValueRAM - 8GB (1 x 8GB) - DDR3L - 1333MHz (PC3-10666) - ECC - Unbuffered - 240-pin SoDIMM - 1.35V - CL9). Wondering if anyone has used this memory with their W520 quad core?
Thanks

Avoid Value RAM, they have a greater chance of not working. If you need cheaper RAM, I can recommend Crucial.

Slow Mac Mini with i7 quad core (current gen.) with most current OSX vs. a PC-Winodws 8.1

My Mac Mini is somewhat slow... don’t get me wrong it’s a fast computer but I got a new work laptop i5 Dual Core Acer laptop with windows 8.1 (I know LOL)
& it is so much faster with media and browsing the web and overall boot up everything.... Now I have started to leave my Mac on all the time (sleep vs. off) and its much better but having multi-webpage’s up and YouTube it still get slow and will ever crash from time to time...
Anyone else has this issue? Know what can be done?
Maybe it’s just because the i5 on the Acer is a newer Haswell design? But the Mac is quad core…. Even my old PC desktop that I never use with an Intel Core 2 quad is so much faster even at 8 years old; boots Windows in 9 sec.
Mybe is just OSX - I'm thinking about install WIndows 8.1 on the Mac Mini.... ( anyone have this option; is it fast?)
Thanks

Sometimes all Apps stop working or take a long time to come back.. Have to restart.
These instructions must be carried out as an administrator. If you have only one user account, you are the administrator.
Launch the Console application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Console in the icon grid.
Step 1
For this step, the title of the Console window should be All Messages. If it isn't, select
SYSTEM LOG QUERIES ▹ All Messages
from the log list on the left. If you don't see that list, select
View ▹ Show Log List
from the menu bar at the top of the screen.
In the top right corner of the Console window, there's a search box labeled Filter. Initially the words "String Matching" are shown in that box. Enter "BOOT_TIME" (without the quotes.)
Each message in the log begins with the date and time when it was entered. Note the timestamps of the BOOT_TIME log messages, which refer to the times when the system was started. Now clear the search box and scroll back in the log to the last boot time when you had the problem. Select the messages logged before the boot, during the time something abnormal was happening. Copy them to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. Paste into a reply to this message by pressing command-V.
For example, if the system was unresponsive or was failing to shut down for three minutes before you forced a restart, post the messages timestamped within three minutes before the boot time, not after. Please include the BOOT_TIME message at the end of the log extract—not at the beginning.
If there are long runs of repeated messages, please post only one example of each. Don’t post many repetitions of the same message.
When posting a log extract, be selective. In most cases, a few dozen lines are more than enough.
Please do not indiscriminately dump thousands of lines from the log into this discussion.
☞ Some private information, such as your name, may appear in the log. Anonymize before posting.
Step 2
In the Console window, select
DIAGNOSTIC AND USAGE INFORMATION ▹ System Diagnostic Reports
(not Diagnostic and Usage Messages) from the log list on the left. If you don't see that list, select
View ▹ Show Log List
from the menu bar.
There is a disclosure triangle to the left of the list item. If the triangle is pointing to the right, click it so that it points down. You'll see a list of reports. A crash report has a name that begins with the name of the crashed process and ends in ".crash". A panic report has a name that begins with "Kernel" and ends in ".panic". Select the most recent of each. The contents of the report will appear on the right. Use copy and paste to post the entire contents—the text, not a screenshot.
I know the report is long, maybe several hundred lines. Please post all of it anyway.
☞ If you don't see any reports listed, but you know there was a crash or panic, you may have chosen Diagnostic and Usage Messages from the log list. Choose DIAGNOSTIC AND USAGE INFORMATION instead.
In the interest of privacy, I suggest that, before posting, you edit out the “Anonymous UUID,” a long string of letters, numbers, and dashes in the header of the report, if it’s present (it may not be.)
☞ Please don’t post other kinds of diagnostic report—they're very long and rarely helpful.
