Advanced Innovations

Intel Core 2 Duo and Intel(R) Core(TM)2 Extreme processors include many advanced innovations, including:

--Intel(R) Wide Dynamic Execution -- Improves performance and efficiency as each core can complete up to four full instructions simultaneously using an efficient 14-stage pipeline.

--Intel(R) Smart Memory Access -- Improves system performance by hiding memory latency In computing, memory latency is the time between initiating a request for a byte or word in memory until it is retrieved. If the data is not in the processor's cache, it takes longer to obtain them, as the processor will have to communicate with the external memory cells. , thus optimizing the use of available computer data bandwidth to provide data to the processor when and where it is needed.

--Intel(R) Advanced Smart Cache -- Includes a shared L2 cache (Level 2 cache) A memory bank built into the CPU chip, packaged within the same module or built on the motherboard. The L2 cache feeds the L1 cache, and its memory is slower than L1 memory. The L2 cache feeds the L1 cache, which feeds the processor.

--Intel(R) Advanced Digital Media Boost -- Effectively doubles the execution speed for instructions used widely in multimedia and graphics applications.

--Intel(R) 64 Technology -- This enhancement to Intel's 32-bit architecture supports 64-bit computing, including enabling the processor to access larger amounts of memory.

Mobile PC Processor Unique Features

Intel Core 2 Duo mobile processors include many advanced innovations, including:

--Intel(R) Dynamic Power Coordination -- Coordinates Enhanced Intel SpeedStep(R) Technology and idle power-management state (C-states) transitions independently per core to help save power.

--Intel(R) Dynamic Bus Parking -- Enables platform power savings and improved battery life by allowing the chipset to power down with the processor in low-frequency mode.

--Enhanced Intel(R) Deeper Sleep with Dynamic Cache Sizing -- Saves power by flushing cache data to system memory during periods of inactivity to lower CPU CPU
