About: wPrime - 1024MwPrime - 1024M is a computationally intensive benchmark designed to measure processor performance and scalability by calculating all prime numbers up to 1,024 million (1,024,000,000). It utilizes all available cores and threads on the CPU to run extremely heavy multi-threaded workloads, thoroughly testing both the processor and memory system's ability to handle complex and lengthy tasks.
Compared to the wPrime 32M version, the 1024M test has a much larger workload size, so it not only assesses processor speed, but also tests system stability under sustained load conditions. Test results are reported in units of execution time (seconds), where smaller values indicate superior performance.
Due to its demanding nature and long test duration, wPrime - 1024M is often used in overclocking competitions, CPU stress testing, and performance evaluation of servers or workstations that must run extreme parallel loads for long periods of time. This benchmark provides an accurate picture of the processor's endurance and capabilities in the most demanding working environments.
The Intel Core i7-720QM, launched in Q3 2009, was one of the first mobile quad-core processors to feature Intel's Nehalem microarchitecture, specifically the Clarksfield variant. Targeted at high-performance laptops, such as gaming machines and mobile workstations, the i7-720QM brought 4 physical cores and 8 threads to the mobile platform, thanks to Hyper-Threading Technology providing a significant boost in multi-threaded workloads like video editing, 3D rendering, and other professional-grade applications. The processor runs at a base clock speed of 1.6 GHz, but it can dynamically increase up to 2.8 GHz using Intel Turbo Boost, depending on thermal headroom and power availability.
Manufactured using a 45nm process, the i7-720QM has a TDP of 45W, which is quite high by today's mobile CPU standards. This thermal demand necessitated more robust cooling solutions in laptops that featured the chip. Unlike modern CPUs, the i7-720QM does not come with integrated graphics, which means systems based on this processor require a dedicated GPU often from AMD or NVIDIA for graphics processing and display output. As such, it was typically paired with mid-to-high-end discrete graphics cards in its time, making it a solid choice for gaming and multimedia laptops in the late 2000s and early 2010s.
While the Core i7-720QM was a powerhouse during its release, its performance and efficiency are significantly outpaced by modern CPUs built on smaller nodes and with higher IPC (Instructions Per Clock). Nevertheless, legacy laptops using the i7-720QM can still be viable for basic computing tasks like web browsing, document editing, or watching videos especially if paired with an SSD upgrade and increased RAM. Users running Windows 10 on such systems may experience some limitations, but with proper optimization and lightweight software, the CPU can still deliver a usable experience in non-demanding environments.
