Software and workloads used in performance tests may have been optimized for performance only on Intel microprocessors. Performance tests, such as SYSmark and MobileMark, are measured using specic
computer systems, components, software, operations and functions. Any change to any of those factors may cause the results to vary. You should consult other information and performance tests to assist you
in fully evaluating your contemplated purchases, including the performance of that product when combined with other products. For more information go to http://www.intel.com/performance
Intel processor numbers are not a measure of performance. Processor numbers dierentiate features within each processor family, not across dierent processor families.
See http://www.intel.com/performance for details.
Performance tests and ratings are measured using specic computer systems and/or components and reect the approximate performance of Intel products as measured by those tests. Any dierence in sys-
tem hardware or software design or conguration may aect actual performance. Buyers should consult other sources of information to evaluate the performance of systems or components they are consider-
ing purchasing. For more information on performance tests and on the performance of Intel products, visit www.intel.com/performance/resources/limits.htm or call (U.S.) 1-800-628-8686 or 1-916-356-3104.
No computer system can provide absolute security. Requires an enabled Intel® processor, enabled chipset, rmware and/or software optimized to use the technologies. Consult your system manufacturer and/
or software vendor for more information.
Intel technologies’ features and benets depend on system conguration and may require enabled hardware, software or service activation. Performance varies depending on system conguration. No com-
puter system can provide absolute security.
All dates and products specied are for planning purposes only and are subject to change without notice.
Relative performance for each benchmark is calculated by taking the actual benchmark result for the rst platform tested and assigning it a value of 1.0 as a baseline. Relative performance for the remaining
platforms tested was calculated by dividing the actual benchmark result for the baseline platform into each of the specic benchmark results of each of the other platforms and assigning them a relative perfor-
mance number that correlates with the performance improvements reported.
