Features and Benefits of the Intel® Core™ i7 Processor
Feature	Benefit
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 Technology3	Delivers two processing threads per physical core for a total of 8 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 Technology2	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 4 cores to match the needs of various applications for ultra-efficient data storage and manipulation.
Intel® QuickPath Interconnect	Intel's latest system interconnect design increases bandwidth and lowers latency, while achieving data transfer speeds as high as 25.6 GB/sec.
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 can result in significantly lower noise emissions from the PC.
Intel® Wide Dynamic Execution	Improves execution speed and efficiency, delivering more instructions per clock cycle. Each core can complete up to four full instructions simultaneously.
Intel® Smart Memory Access	Improves system performance by optimizing the use of the available data bandwidth from the memory subsystem and reducing the effective latency of memory accesses.
