The s4 lineup is made for slightly more performance-intensive work, such as application debugging and web development. In addition, it has a lower power draw than the Intel Core i5 CPU, while still having a very high max clock speed for its price. The s4 lineup also features a hyper-threading model, the s4X that has 4 cores and 6 threads. There's also the s4-4500S if you want 6 cores and 6 threads and a max clock speed of 4.10 GHz.

Specifications:

• Base Clock Speed: 2.90-3.30 GHz
• Max Clock Speed: 3.60-4.10 GHz
• Up to 6 cores
• Up to 6 threads
• Hyper-threading: See below
• Bus speed: 5 GT/s
• TDP: 22 watts
• Base Price: $198.00

The s6 series is built for extremely performance-itensive gaming and is intended to be used with a Rustler Xeon GPU. The s6X features hyper-threading with 6 cores and 8 threads, while if you want to go full gaming power, you can select the s6-4500S if you prefer 8 cores and 8 threads, in addition to a max clock speed of 4.20 GHz.

Specifications:

• Base Clock Speed: 3.20-3.50 GHz
• Max Clock Speed: 3.80-4.20 GHz
• Up to 8 cores
• Up to 10 threads
• Hyper-threading: See below
• Bus speed: 6 GT/s
• TDP: 29 watts
• Base Price: $291.00

The s8 series is the ultimate CPU. With up to 10 cores and 10 threads, it just can't get any better than this. Clock speeds can reach 4.30 GHz on the s8-4600S. And you won't believe how power-efficient this processor is. Drawing just 36 watts, it's the most powerful and efficient CPU you can buy.

Specifications:

• Base Clock Speed: 3.40-3.70 GHz
• Max Clock Speed: 3.90-4.30 GHz
• Up to 10 cores
• Up to 16 threads
• Hyper-threading: See below
• Bus speed: 8 GT/s
• TDP: 36 watts
• Base Price: $340.00

DESTINY SERIES

The Destiny series of business-grade processors allow you the most power you'll ever need out of a CPU. A mind-boggling 50 cores and 62 threads and a clock speed of 5 GHz unlock the key to powerful, business-grade processors.

Specifications:

• Base Clock Speed: 4.00-4.30 GHz
• Max Clock Speed: 4.60-5.00 GHz
• Up to 50 cores
• Up to 62 threads
• Hyper-threading: Yes, on all models
• Bus speed: 12 GT/s
