Fast, efficient and smart
The
new 2010 Intel® Core™ processor family adapts to your needs, no matter
how you use your PC. With three levels of smart performance, it's easy
to find the one that's right for you.
Features and benefits
Get a major boost in PC power with the intelligent performance of the Intel® Core™ i5 processor.
32nm dual-core processing runs two independent processor cores in one physical package at the same frequency.
Intel® Turbo Boost Technology
maximizes speed for demanding applications, dynamically accelerating
performance to match your workload—more performance when you need it
the most.
Intel® Hyper-Threading Technology²
delivers two processing threads per physical core for a total of four
threads for massive computational throughput. This 4-way multi-task
processing allows each core of your processor to work on two tasks at
the same time.
Intel® HD Graphics provides
superb visual performance for sharper images, richer color, and
life-like video and audio. Available on select models of the all new
2010 Intel® Core™ processor family.
Integrated memory controller
enables two channels of high-speed DDR3 1333 MHz memory. This memory
controller's lower latency and higher memory bandwidth delivers amazing
performance for data-intensive applications.
Intel® Smart Cache
is a shared cache 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. Optimized for industry-leading multi-threaded
games.
¹ Intel® Turbo Boost Technology requires a PC
with a processor with Intel Turbo Boost Technology capability. Intel
Turbo Boost Technology performance varies depending on hardware,
software, and overall system configuration. Check with your PC
manufacturer on whether your system delivers Intel Turbo Boost
Technology. See www.intel.com/technology/turboboost/ for more information.
²
Intel® Hyper-Threading Technology (Intel® HT Technology) requires a
computer system with a processor supporting Intel® HT Technology and an
Intel® HT Technology-enabled chipset, BIOS, and operating system.
Performance will vary depending on the specific hardware and software
you use. Intel® Hyper-Threading Technology is not available on the
Intel® Core™ i5-750 processor. For more information including details
on which processors support Intel® HT Technology, see www.intel.com/technology/platform-technology/hyper-threading/.

± Intel® Virtualization Technology (Intel® VT),
Intel® Trusted Execution Technology (Intel® TXT), and Intel® 64 architecture
require a computer system with a processor, chipset, BIOS, enabling software
and/or operating system, device drivers and applications designed for these
features. Performance will vary depending on your configuration. Contact your
vendor for more information.
° Enabling Execute Disable Bit functionality requires
a PC with a processor with Execute Disable Bit capability and a supporting
operating system. Check with your PC manufacturer on whether your system
delivers Execute Disable Bit functionality.
Φ 64-bit computing on Intel® architecture requires
a computer system with a processor, chipset, BIOS, operating system, device
drivers, and applications enabled for Intel® 64 architecture. Processors will
not operate (including 32-bit operation) without an Intel 64
architecture-enabled BIOS. Performance will vary depending on your hardware and
software configurations. Consult with your system vendor for more information.
