The introduction of Core 2 relegated the Pentium brand to the mid-range market, and reunified laptop and desktop CPU lines, which previously had been divided into the Pentium 4, Pentium D, and Pentium M brands. The single- and dual-core models are single-die, whereas the quad-core models comprise two dies, each containing two cores, packaged in a multi-chip module. This means it will become a bottleneck in some demanding applications.Ĭore 2 is a brand encompassing a range of Intel's consumer 64-bit x86-64 single-, dual-, and quad-core microprocessors based on the Core microarchitecture. īoth the processor and integrated graphics have a rated board TDP of 15W. The processor integrates powerful Graphics called Intel HD Graphics 5000, with 40 Execution Units, initially clocked at 200MHz and that go up to 1100MHz, in Turbo Mode which share the L2 Cache and system RAM with the processor. Īmong its many features, Turbo Boost and Virtualization are activated. It offers 2 Physical Cores (4 Logical), initially clocked at 1.4GHz, which may go up to 2.9GHz and 3MB of 元 Cache. Core i5-4350U 1.4GHz is a super energy efficient mobile processor based on the 22nm, Haswell architecture.
