FEATURES AND BENEFITS OF THE 4TH GENERATION INTEL® CORE™ PROCESSOR
FEATURE	BENEFIT
Intel® Turbo Boost Technology4	Dynamically increases the processor’s frequency as needed by taking advantage of thermal andpower headroom when operating below specified limits.
2.0 Intel Hyper-Threading Technology4	Delivers two processing threads per physical core. Highly threaded applications can get more workdone in parallel, completing tasks sooner.
Built-in visuals	Intel HD graphics – Enhanced 3-D1 performance for immersive mainstream and casual gaming.Can support up to three Ultra HD (4K) displays and collage display. Intel Wireless Display8 – Wirelessly stream HD/3-D video and games to your TV or projectorfor presentations and entertainment. Intel Quick Sync Video – Delivers fast conversion of video for portable media players, onlinesharing, and video editing and authoring. Intel Clear Video HD Technology – Visual quality and color fidelity enhancements for HDplayback and immersive Web browsing. Intel InTru™ 3D1 – Stereoscopic 3-D Blu-ray playback in full 1,080p resolution over HDMI* 1.4and premium audio. Intel Advanced Vector Extensions – A set of new instructions to improve software performance11for floating point-intensive applications such as audio processing, audio codecs, and image andvideo editing applications.
Integrated memory controller	An integrated memory controller offers stunning memory read/write performance through efficientprefetching algorithms, lower latency, and higher memory bandwidth.
Intel Smart Cache	The shared cache is dynamically allocated to each processor core, based on workload.This significantly reduces latency,10 improving performance.
Intel Virtualization Technology4	Allows one hardware platform to function as multiple “virtual” platformsby isolating computing activities into separate partitions.
Advanced Encryption Standard New Instructions(AES-NI)	New AES instructions add hardware acceleration to AES algorithms and speed up the executionof AES applications.
Thermal solution for boxed processors	Includes a four-pin connector for fan speed control to help minimize the acoustic noise levelsgenerated from running the fan at higher speeds for thermal performance.9
