Ya… I am a Apple guy but I have always been a HUGE fan of Intel. Through the years I have always been a HUGE advocate of Intel and its all we use to power our servers.
And now Intel powers my mac!
Don’t thing I am a big Intel fan?
Check out this thing I had framed in my basement. Its every chip Intel made from the first all the way to the Pentium Pro. I bought most of them off of eBay throughout the years then had a local crafts place put them all nice and in a frame:

Anyway Intel launched the new i7 chip last week and it looks totally badass. Its a Quad Core PLUS hyper threading.
Intel started a new site called Digital Dragrace where they are having graphics and multimedia experts create some pretty badass animations and then judge them. The site is pretty sweet these guys create some AMAZING stuff in a short amount of time.

Anyway I have seen them on facebook and other places around the web. Pretty cool.
Also it gives me a chance to show off my nerd art =P

Thought that was something I had seen before in stores or maybe in a museum…good nerd art, gives me an idea for my own nerd art.
Thanks for covering this! I work for an agency that collaborated with Intel on it. Just wanted to let everyone know that the nerdiness continues on the blog section of the site. This month, the blog will showcase “fan battles”, where user generated videos will be pitted against each other. If you are interested in creating a video, the assets are on this section as well, and videos just need to be tagged DDRi7 on You Tube to be pulled into the page. So far there are already 10 user generated videos, so its a good way to get coverage if you are a designer or an animator.
Thats cool. I have a collection of old harddrives with the front covers removed. The old RLL drives look really empressive.
I’m going to have to copy you on this.
Yes. I think I will be interesting to see the progress in the industry. -)
I love your intel chips in the frame, I did immediately think “nerd” when I saw the photo. Its an awesome idea though.
Wow! That is a little bit nerdy! But still very cool.
Very impressive at what those guys can do in such a short amount of time. Very nerdy.
Now the speed of technology development set money.
everythin is money , of course
I wasn’t aware Commodore was still making computers. I’m going to buy the Commodore with the i7 just for old time sakes.
That is pretty cool. I wish I had the free time to mess around with stuff like that. I used to. Then I got one job, then side gig, then a few sites of my own, and then a kid. You get the point. Do this sort of thing while you are young.
Or fun. Getting old doesn’t mean getting boring.
Having a kid or older isn’t boring. It just means your priorities change from fiddling with new toys to things that mean more to you.
im guessing you dont use AMD at all?
i use it . and we use it, they use it .. what do you talk about
Wonder what the tag on those will be…
I think the Digital Drag Race is really cool and I wrote about it on my blog as well. Do you have a favorite competitor yet?
That is a little bit nerdy but I love your intel chips in the frame,
I really like your intel chips in the frame.. Very nice idea..
Thanks for the love Jeremy. See you in Orlando.
Haha Everyone else has already said, but wow Nerd…
And my girl calls me a nerd for being on my Mac and 360 all day.
If she only knew…
No offense obviously, nerds get their shit done.
I have a circa 1982 video card hanging on my wall above my computer desk. It’s about 3 times the length of a large video card these days, and it’s covered in small removable micro chips. It’s pretty neat.
I also have an uncovered HDD and floppy drive (with a disk mounted inside).
that is amazing… intel keep going for faster and faster processors..
there is no limit for them.
Very cool. It’s amazing how far we’ve come in such a short time. Just think where we’ll be in 20 more years.
People go to the Moon twenty years later. And on Mars.
Not being a hardware nerd, I often wondered how effective high powered CPU’s can be. Is the CPU limited by the motherboard bus speed and by amount of RAM? Kind of like the weakest link in a chain.
Regardless, the graphics guys are amazing. Now, they I can see needing the most souped machines available.
I tried to win one of these bad ass chips on that Com.puter.tv event, but boy did that turn out horrible.
amazing chips…creating especially for game maniac worldwide…… I think’s work fast and the cost very expensive
well, I got a intel in my macbook to and I think it’S really badass too. I just had a look at digital dragrace and it looks pretty cool
got a intel in my computer and it really kicks ass using it for gaming
I like AMD for gaming, I like Intel alot too, I’m 50/50 on both tbh
That is so cool! I’ll always have fond memories of the 8086.
Can you share with us?
Its very cool! I think it is awesome to see how far things have developed and come over the years!
Really cool! I find intel good for doing all the stuff i do online even though I don’t need speed t play games or something like that
Ahh.. Just can’t keep up with all these technologies..
Very nice collection, I have about 4 old videcards at home
I love your intel chips in the frame, I did immediately think “nerd” when I saw the photo. Its an awesome idea though.
Yup, a bit nerdy yet cool. Worth giving a try.
wow, amazing, i wonder what the future holds for Intel!
I like the history of the intel chip you put together there!! really cool to see how it progressed!!
That’s Cool n Awesome..
Wow this one is nice and rare collection. Showing your other aspect as well Jeremy.
