Features and Benets of the Intel® Core™ i5 Processor

Feature Benefit

Dual-CoreProcessing

Runs two independent processor cores in one physical package at the same frequency.

Intel®SmartCache

The shared cache is dynamically allocated to each processor core, based on workload. This efficient, dual-core-optimized implementation increases the probability

that each core can access data from the fast cache, significantly reducing latency to frequently used data and improving performance.

Intel®TurboBoostTechnology

Dynamically increases the processor's frequency as needed by taking advantage of thermal and power headroom when operating below specified limits. Get more

performance automatically, when you need it the most.

Intel®Hyper-ThreadingTechnology

(Intel®HTTechnology)

Delivers two processing threads per physical core for a total of four threads for massive computational throughput. With Intel® HT Technology, highly threaded

applications can get more work done in parallel, completing their tasks sooner. With more threads available to the operating system, multitasking becomes even

easier. This amazing processor can handle multiple applications working simultaneously, allowing you to do more with less wait time.

IntegratedMemoryController

An integrated memory controller offers stunning memory read/write performance through efficient prefetching algorithms, lower latency, and higher memory

bandwidth.

Intel®HDGraphics

Enhanced video and 3D engine delivers smooth HD video playback and mainstream 3D gaming without the need for add-in video cards or decoders. Intel® HD

Graphics provides a suite of video processing, 3D, and software technologies designed to improve image quality and performance, including hardware-accelerated

decode for Blu-ray* dual-stream picture-in-picture and 3D support for Microsoft* DirectX* 10 and OpenGL* 2.1. Supports full functionality of the Microsoft*

Windows* 7 operating system and display connectivity options, including HDMI* and DisplayPort*. Enables professional-grade audio capabilities with support

for Dolby* TrueHD and DTS*-HD Master Audio multi-channel bitstreaming.

Intel®VirtualizationTechnology(Intel®VT-x)

andIntel®VirtualizationTechnologyforDirected

I/O(Intel®VT-d)

Intel® VT allows one hardware platform to function as multiple “virtual” platforms. For businesses, Intel VT offers improved manageability, limiting downtime and

maintaining worker productivity by isolating computing activities into separate partitions.

AdvancedEncryptionStandardNewInstructions

(AES-NI)

New AES instructions add hardware acceleration to AES algorithms and speeds up the execution of AES applications.

Intel®TrustedExecutionTechnology(Intel®TXT)

Highly versatile set of hardware extensions for Intel® processors and chipsets which, with appropriate software, enhance platform security capabilities.

Intel®-DesignedThermalSolution

forBoxedProcessors

Includes a four-pin connector for fan speed control to help minimize the acoustic noise levels generated from running the fan at higher speeds for thermal performance

Fan speed control technology is based on actual processor temperature and power usage.
