4th gen Intel® Core™ processor features at a glance

Features

Benefits

Intel® Turbo Boost Technology 2.0

10

Dynamically increases the processor’s frequency, as needed, by taking advantage of thermal and power 

headroom when operating below specified limits.

Intel® Hyper-Threading Technology

11 

Delivers two processing threads per physical core. Highly threaded applications can get more work done in 

parallel, completing tasks sooner. 

Intel® Built-In Visuals

Intel® Iris™

 Graphics*—

Delivers stunning 3D visuals and faster, more advanced video and photo editing 

and high-speed game performance on the go and in your home. *Available on select SKUs only. 

 

Intel® Quick Sync Video

—

Delivers fast conversion of video for portable media players, online sharing, and 

video editing and authoring.

Intel® Clear Video HD

—

Visual quality and color fidelity enhancements for HD playback and immersive 

web browsing.

Intel® InTRU™ 3D

22

—

Enjoy the ultimate 3D visual experiences and your favorite 3D Blu-ray* movies, all  

delivered in stereo 3D and full 1080p resolution on your PC.

Intel® HD Graphics

—

Allows playing of HD videos with exceptional clarity, viewing and editing of even the 

smallest details of photos, and playing today’s modern games. 

Intel® Wireless Display

—

Lets you beam your apps and personal and online content such as movies, 

photos, and music to an HDTV with a simple wireless connection.

Intel® Insider™

23

—

Stream or download 1080p HD premium movies on your PC through participating  

distributor sites across the world. Purchase content and view it later across multiple platforms using 

Ultraviolet* support.

Intel® Advanced Vector Extensions

—

A set of new instructions to improve software performance  

for floating point-intensive applications such as audio processing, audio codecs, and image and video 

editing applications.

Integrated Memory Controller

An integrated memory controller offers stunning memory read/write performance through efficient 

prefetching 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, improving performance.

Intel® Virtualization Technology

9

Allows one hardware platform to function as multiple “virtual” platforms. Offers improved manageability by 

limiting downtime and maintaining productivity by isolating computing activities into separate partitions.

Intel® Advanced Encryption Standard New 

Instructions (Intel® AES–NI)

12

A faster, more secure AES engine for a variety of encryption apps, including whole disk encryption, file 

storage encryption, conditional access of HD content, internet security, and VoIP. Consumers benefit from 

protected internet and email content, plus faster, more responsive disk encryption.

Intel® Power Optimizer and Processor C-States

Intel® Power Optimizer increases periods of silicon sleep state across the platform ingredients, including 

the CPU, chipset, and third-party system components, reducing power and increasing battery life for Ultra 

and SV platforms. New Processor C-states (C8-C10) on Ultra platforms provide dramatically low idle power. 

Fully Integrated Voltage Regulator (FIVR)

The voltage regulator is now integrated into 4th generation Intel® Core™ processors, improving battery life 

and providing design-cost and space savings for OEMs. This integration also allows finer power control  

for efficiency.

Configurable TDP

With Configurable TDP, the processor is now capable of modulating the maximum sustained power 

vs. performance. Configurable TDP thus provides design and performance flexibility to control system 

performance based on the cooling capability and usage scenarios. For example, a detachable Ultrabook™ 

may need more performance when used in a full clamshell mode (vs. tablet mode), or when balanced 

performance is needed in a quiet conference room setting.

On-Package Cache Memory

Delivers higher bandwidth for graphics and memory-intensive applications for Intel’s highest-performance 

processor graphics products, resulting in big performance boosts on 4th gen Intel® Core™ Iris™ Pro Graphics 

5200 products, with up to 128MB of capacity supported.

CPU/Memory/Graphics Overclocking

On select products, CPU/graphics and memory can be run at frequencies above the rated frequency of the 

part, resulting in higher performance.

Intel® Secure Key

18

 (formerly Digital Random 

Number Generator [DRNG])

Security hardware-based random number generator that can be used for generating high-quality keys for 

cryptographic (encryption and decryption) protocols. Provides quality entropy that is highly sought after in 

the cryptography world for added security.
