Product Overview
These Intel® Core™ processors are based
on the 2 generation Intel® Core™ micro-
nd
architecture on 32nm process technology
which offers enhanced media and graphics
capabilities and performance while reduc-
ing overall platform power requirements.
With support for both quad-core and
dual-core configurations, these processors
improve performance and efficiency of
multi-threaded applications with the option
for unprecedented hardware support of
vital security and management functions.
When paired with the Intel® Q67 Express
chipset or Intel® B65 Express chipset,
these two-chip platforms provide ideal
solutions for embedded market segments
such as retail and transaction solutions,
digital signage, digital security surveillance,
gaming, medical, communications, and
industrial automation and control.
With the graphics engine integrated into
the processor, these solutions provide
enhanced media and 3D graphics perfor-
mance compared with previous Intel Core
processor-based platforms. The memory
controller hub is also integrated into the
processor, providing for lower memory
latency. Full integration of the CPU, media/
graphics capabilities and memory controller
into the processor reduces overall platform
footprint. While incorporating advanced
technology, these processors remain
software-compatible with previous IA-32
processors. Developers can also create
one board design and scale their product
line with a variety of processors using
the same socket.
The new Intel® Advanced Vector Extensions
(Intel® AVX) can dramatically increase signal
processing performance when compared
Core
®
to previous generations. Intel® AES New
Instructions (Intel® AES-NI) on select
processors helps accelerate data encryp-
tion, decryption, and improve performance.
Product Highlights
Intel® HD Graphics 2000: Supports
enhanced media and graphics capabilities
and performance while reducing overall
platform power requirements.
Intel® Advanced Vector Extensions:
Accelerates compute performance for
signal and image processing applications.
Intel® Intelligent Power Technology
Reduces idle power consumption through
architectural improvements such as
integrated power gates and automated
low-power states.
