2nd Generation Intel® Core™ i3 Processor

2nd Generation Intel® Core™ i3 Processor


The Intel® Core™ i3 processor provides the basis for an affordable PC. This dual-core processor with 4-way multitasking capability has built-in performance headroom for software upgrades, providing an excellent return on investment. 

SPECIFICATIONS:

All 2nd generation Intel® Core™ i3 processors feature:

Intel® HT Technology◊:

Intel® Hyper-Threading Technology (Intel® HT Technology) uses processor resources more efficiently, enabling multiple threads to run on each core. Intel® HT Technology increases processor throughput, improving overall performance on threaded software. Intel HT Technology is available on Previous Generation Intel® Core™ processors, 2nd generation Intel® Core™ processor family, and Intel® Xeon® processor family.

An Intel® processor and chipset combined with an OS and BIOS supporting Intel HT Technology allows you to:

Run demanding applications simultaneously while maintaining system responsiveness

Keep systems more secure, efficient, and manageable while minimizing impact on productivity

Provide headroom for future business growth and new solution capabilities

Intel® Smart Cache is dynamically allocated to each processor core based on workload, which significantly reduces latency and improves performance.
