With faster, intelligent, multi-core technology that applies processing power where it’s needed most, new Intel Core i7 processors deliver an incredible breakthrough in PC performance. They are the best desktop processor family on the planet. You’ll multitask applications faster and unleash incredible digital media creation. And you’ll experience maximum performance for everything you do, thanks to the combination of Intel Turbo Boost technology and Intel Hyper-Threading technology (Intel HT technology), which maximizes performance to match your workload. Intel quad-core processor Provides four independent execution cores in one processor package. Four dedicated processing cores help operating systems and applications deliver additional performance, so end users can experience better multitasking and multithreaded performance across many types of applications and workloads. Intel Hyper-Threading Technology Delivers two processing threads per physical core for a total of eight threads for massive computational throughput. With Intel HT technology, highly threaded applications can get more work done in parallel, completing their tasks sooner. With more threads available to the operating system, multitasking becomes even easier. This amazing processor can handle multiple applications working simultaneously, allowing you to do more with less wait time. Intel Turbo Boost Technology Dynamically increases the processor’s frequency when needed by taking advantage of thermal and power headroom when operating below specified limits. Get more performance automatically, when you need it the most. 8 MB Intel Smart Cache This large last level cache enables dynamic and efficient allocation of shared cache to all four cores to match the needs of various applications for ultra-efficient data storage and manipulation. Integrated memory controller An integrated memory controller with three channels of DDR3 1066 MHz offers memory performance up to 25.6 GB/sec. Combined with the processor’s very efficient prefetching algorithms, this memory controller’s lower latency and higher memory bandwidth delivers amazing performance for data intensive applications. Intel HD Boost Includes the full SSE4 instruction set, significantly improving a broad range of multimedia and compute-intensive applications. The 128-bit SSE instructions are issued at a throughput rate of one per clock cycle, allowing a new level of processing efficiency with SSE4 optimized applications. Digital thermal sensor (DTS) Provides for more efficient processor and platform thermal control, improving system acoustics. The DTS continuously measures the temperature at each processing core. The ability to continuously measure and detect variations in processor temperature enables system fans to spin only as fast as needed to cool the system. The combination of these technologies
