memory accesses. This innovation also includes a capability called “memory
disambiguation,” which increases the efficiency of out-of-order processing by providing
the execution cores with the built-in intelligence to speculatively load data for
instructions that are about to execute before all previous store instructions are executed.
• Intel® Advanced Digital Media Boost – Significantly improves performance when
executing streaming SIMD extension (SSE/SSE2/SSE3) instructions, accelerates a broad
range of applications, including video, speech and image, photo processing, encryption,
financial, engineering and scientific applications.
• Intel® 64 – 64-bit headroom in hardware to take advantage of 64-bit operating systems
such as Microsoft Vista* and 64-bit applications as they become available for the mobile
client.
Mobile Intel® 965 Express Chipset Family
The Mobile Intel 965 Express Chipset Family is the next-generation Intel chipset architecture for
notebook PCs using Intel Centrino Duo processor technology. The Mobile Intel 965GM chipset
family, compared to previous-generation mobile Intel chipsets, offers new capabilities and
greater performance for an outstanding mobile computing experience based on integrated
graphics (GM965/GL960) or discrete graphics (PM965).
Key new features include:
• A suite of drivers enabling a robust and outstanding Microsoft Windows Vista* Premium
experience featuring Microsoft Windows Aero.*
• Intel® Clear Video Technology, which includes several features – ProcAmp API, high-
quality scaling, film mode detection and correction, MPEG2 and WMV9 hardware
acceleration, and advanced de-interlacing – all of which enable a premium high-
definition video experience. With Clear Video Technology, viewers experience smoother
stutter-free high-definition video playback, sharper image quality, customizable color
controls and fewer motion artifacts.
• Easily connect a laptop to an HDTV with the Intel TV Wizard.
• Intel Graphics Media Accelerator X3100 offers an increased graphics core frequency of
500MHz @1.05V (in the GM965 vs. the previous generation chipset with a graphics core
frequency of 250MHz) and up to 384MB of video memory.
• Power management features including Intel® DPST (Display Power Savings
Technology) 3.0, Intel Display Refresh Rate Switching technology and support for D
