<p><strong>Energy Efficiency</strong><br />
When working or playing hard, you want to keep distractions to a minimum. Thanks to Intel&#8217;s exclusive 45nm technology, the Intel Core 2 Duo processor runs very efficiently—consuming less energy and producing less heat then previous-generation processors. Since desktop PCs featuring the Intel Core 2 Duo processor run cooler, they require less cooling, meaning fewer fans and a quieter computing experience. And with energy-saving features that shut down portions of the processor when they are not in use, the Intel Core 2 Duo processor is easier on your energy bill and the environment.</span><span style="font-family:&quot;" lang="IN"></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height:normal;"><strong><span style="font-size:12pt;font-family:&quot;">Product Description</span></strong><span style="font-size:12pt;font-family:&quot;"><br />
PC users are running multiple, intense software applications simultaneously, increasing demand on hardware resources. In the office, PC usage has changed from data entry and word processing to e-Commerce, online collaboration and an ever-increasing need for continual security and virus protection. In the home, interests have shifted from low-bandwidth photos and Internet surfing to downloading and viewing high definition videos, as well as advanced photo and video editing. The Intel Core 2 Duo processor was developed to meet all these demands.Built on the innovative Intel Core microarchitecture, the Intel Core 2 Duo desktop processor delivers revolutionary dual-core performance and breakthrough processor energy efficiency. With Intel Wide Dynamic Execution, Intel Smart Memory Access, Intel Advanced Smart Cache and Intel Digital Media Boost, this new processor is designed to do more in less time. Additional features to support enhanced security, virtualization, and 64-bit computing make the Intel Core 2 Duo the most impressive new processor developed for an increasingly multimedia-centered, high-definition world.Design changes in the Intel Core 2 Duo processors that improve performance also increase processor energy efficiency by operating at lower frequencies that require less power to run. Intel Intelligent Power Capability optimizes energy usage of the processor cores by turning on computing functions only when needed. This more energy-efficient processor supports smaller, more capable, and quieter desktop PC to conserve critical power resources. </span><span style="font-size:12pt;font-family:&quot;" lang="IN"></span></p>

With a quad-core processor, multimedia experiences are faster and more responsive as video transfers, image rendering, data compression, and intense gaming applications are streamlined to process seamlessly with remarkable speed. As a result, demanding users can accomplish more in less time.</span></p>
<p><strong>Intel® Core™2 Quad-Core Processor Product Highlight</strong><br />
By including up to 8MB of shared L2 cache and Front Side Bus speeds of up to 1066 MHz, the Intel® Core™2 Quad processor pushes the technological innovation envelope farther than ever before. For demanding users, this means the latest and most advanced software applications will open and work faster with excellent responsiveness. When used with the latest multimedia software and next-generation games, dropped frames, long waiting times and stuttering performance are history.</p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:.0001pt;line-height:normal;"><strong><span style="font-family:&quot;">Intel Technology</span></strong><span style="font-family:&quot;"><br />
<strong>Intel® Wide Dynamic Execution.</strong> Enables the delivery of more instructions per clock cycle for shorter execution times and improved energy efficiency—accomplish more simultaneously and with greater efficiency.</span></p>
<p><strong>Intel® Intelligent Power Capability.</strong> Turning off portions of the processor when they aren&#8217;t being used improves overall energy efficiency and reduces heat production, resulting in a quieter, more energy efficient system.</p>
<p><strong>Intel® Smart Memory Access.</strong> Increasing available data bandwidth means more multitasking with less slowdown—run more demanding applications simultaneously and accomplish more in less time.</p>
<p><strong>Intel® Advanced Smart Cache.</strong> Placing data closer to the processing cores improves platform responsiveness and performance with a wide range of applications.</p>
<p><strong>Intel® Advanced Digital Media Boost.</strong> Accelerates performance with a broad range of applications including video, speech and image, photo processing, encryption, financial, engineering and scientific applications.</p>
<p><strong>Multimedia</strong><br />
With professional-grade photo, music and HD video editing software readily available for consumers, it&#8217;s becoming increasingly popular to create, edit, and share entertainment with friends and family. Unfortunately, these same applications are notoriously performance hungry. Built to handle the most demanding software, the four cores of this Intel processor help ensure that when you&#8217;re working with high-resolution photos, exporting your next audio mashup, or editing HD-quality home movies, your computing platform will be able to keep pace with your creative muse.</p>
<p><strong>Multitasking</strong><br />
A computing platform featuring the Intel Core 2 Quad processor maximizes processing efficiency, allowing users to juggle multiple projects in multiple applications without experiencing the slowdown typically seen with traditional single-core processors. As a result, work and creative projects will get done sooner.</p>
<p><strong>Gaming</strong><br />
Next-generation gaming is more than just pretty environments and smooth motion. Behind the incredible visual realism of waterfalls or the unlucky ricochet of a bullet are intense, high-speed calculations of asset streaming, terrain generation, 3D rendering, and physics effects. When running select next-generation games, each of the cores in the Intel Core 2 Quad processor can be dedicated to individual processes, resulting in smoother, more lifelike graphics and further blurring the line between virtual and reality.</p>

The Intel Core 2 Quad processor is the latest in cutting edge processor technology for the desktop PC. Based on the Intel Core micro-architecture, the Intel Core 2 Quad processor delivers four complete execution cores within a single processor, delivering unprecedented performance and responsiveness. More instructions can be carried out per clock cycle, shorter and wider pipelines execute commands more quickly, and improved bus lanes move data throughout the system faster. Four dedicated, physical threads help operating systems and applications deliver additional performance, so you can experience better multi-tasking and multi-threaded performance across many types of applications and workload. A 4-pin connector is included for fan speed control to help minimize the acoustic noise levels generated from running the fan at higher speeds for thermal performance.
