45-468: HP 255 notebook is a budget laptop. The latest (as of 2023) ninth generation model (G9) is equipped with AMD Ryzen 3, 5 or 7 mobile processors. HP 450 notebook comes in a choice of Intel Celeron, Intel Pentium, and Intel Core i3. HP 520 notebook, a low-end business laptop with either Core Duo T2400 or other Celeron M processors, and either with Windows Vista Business or Basic preinstalled, or if chosen, Red Hat 10. HP 620 notebook from 2010 featured

90-554: A conditional jump would become a single micro-op. However, this technology does not work in 64-bit mode. Core can speculatively execute loads ahead of preceding stores with unknown addresses. Other new technologies include 1 cycle throughput (2 cycles previously) of all 128-bit SSE instructions and a new power saving design. All components will run at minimum speed, raising speed dynamically as needed (similar to AMD's Cool'n'Quiet power-saving technology, and Intel's own SpeedStep technology from earlier mobile processors). This allows

135-463: A different socket in May 2007. The desktop-oriented Conroe began with models having an FSB of 800 MT/s or 1066 MT/s with a 1333 MT/s line officially launched on July 22, 2007. The power use of these processors is very low: average energy use is to be in the 1–2 watt range in ultra low voltage variants, with thermal design powers (TDPs) of 65 watts for Conroe and most Woodcrests, 80 watts for

180-513: A dual-core Intel Pentium CPU. HP 630 was released in 2011 with a Intel Pentium P6200 dual-core processor. The HP 635 instead had an AMD Zacate E-350. The HP Stream series was first introduced in November 2014. The first generation Stream 11 Pro was introduced in January 2015, with the same 1366x768 11.6-inch display as Stream 11, but with a different keyboard. Since then more generations of

225-551: A new power delivery feature set specified in Voltage Regulator-Down (VRD) 11.0 . This requirement is a result of Conroe's significantly lower power consumption, compared to the Pentium 4/D CPUs it replaced. A motherboard that has both a supporting chipset and VRD 11 supports Conroe processors, but even then some boards will need an updated BIOS to recognize Conroe's FID (Frequency ID) and VID (Voltage ID). Unlike

270-525: A reduced cache size use a separate naming scheme, which means that the releases are no longer in alphabetic order. Added steppings have been used in internal and engineering samples, but are unlisted in the tables. Many of the high-end Core 2 and Xeon processors use Multi-chip modules of two chips in order to get larger cache sizes or more than two cores. Early ES/QS steppings are: B0 (CPUID 6F4h), B1 (6F5h) and E0 (6F9h). Steppings B2/B3, E1, and G0 of model 15 (cpuid 06fx) processors are evolutionary steps of

315-556: Is a major evolution over the Yonah , the previous iteration of the P6 microarchitecture series which started in 1995 with Pentium Pro . It also replaced the NetBurst microarchitecture, which suffered from high power consumption and heat intensity due to an inefficient pipeline designed for high clock rate . In early 2004 the new version of NetBurst (Prescott) needed very high power to reach

360-1138: Is a very rare example in Intel's history where a model was yanked from Intel ARK without a recall notice and after a SSPEC was assigned. Working examples were seen, believed to have been released to OEM, but none was offered in retail PCs. See also: Versions of the same Wolfdale core in an LGA 771 are available under the Dual-Core Xeon brand. Note: Q8200, Q8200S, Q8300 SLB5W does not support Intel VT-x. Note: Q8200, Q8200S, Q8300, Q8400, Q8400S, Q9500 does not support Intel VT-d. Note: Q8200, Q8200S, Q8300, Q8400, Q8400S does not support TXT.

405-488: Is commonly called Penryn-3M and Wolfdale-3M and Yorkfield-6M, respectively. The single-core version of Penryn, listed as Penryn-L here, is not a separate model like Merom-L but a version of the Penryn-3M model with only one active core. The Xeon "Dunnington" processor (CPUID Family 6, model 29) is closely related to Wolfdale but comes with six cores and an on-chip L3 cache and is designed for servers with Socket 604, so it

450-407: Is marketed only as Xeon, not as Core 2. The Core microarchitecture uses several stepping levels (steppings), which unlike prior microarchitectures, represent incremental improvements, and different sets of features like cache size and low power modes. Most of these steppings are used across brands, typically by disabling some features and limiting clock frequencies on low-end chips. Steppings with

495-423: Is that installing interleaved RAM will offer double the bandwidth. However, at most the increase in bandwidth by installing interleaved RAM is roughly 5–10%. The AGTL+ PSB used by all NetBurst processors and current and medium-term (pre- QuickPath ) Core 2 processors provide a 64-bit data path. Current chipsets provide for a couple of either DDR2 or DDR3 channels. On jobs requiring large amounts of memory access,

540-502: Is there a significant performance increase. While DDR2 memory models with tighter timing specifications do improve performance, the difference in real world games and applications is often negligible. Optimally, the memory bandwidth afforded should match the bandwidth of the FSB, that is to say that a CPU with a 533 MT/s rated bus speed should be paired with RAM matching the same rated speed, for example DDR2 533, or PC2-4200. A common myth

585-543: The CPU power dissipation tables. Like the last NetBurst CPUs, Core based processors feature multiple cores and hardware virtualization support (marketed as Intel VT-x ), and Intel 64 and SSSE3 . However, Core-based processors do not have the hyper-threading technology as in Pentium 4 processors. This is because the Core microarchitecture is based on the P6 microarchitecture used by Pentium Pro, II, III, and M. The L1 cache of

630-572: The Nehalem microarchitecture . While the Core microarchitecture is a major architectural revision, it is based in part on the Pentium M processor family designed by Intel Israel. The pipeline of Core/ Penryn is 14 stages long – less than half of Prescott 's. Penryn's successor Nehalem has a two cycles higher branch misprediction penalty than Core/Penryn. Core can ideally sustain up to 4 instructions per cycle (IPC) execution rate, compared to

675-402: The 11 Pro have been released: The first HP Stream 13 came with a 2.16 GHz Intel Celeron N2480 processor and Intel HD graphics, retailing for $ 230. HP Stream 14 came out in 2014 with a AMD A4 Micro-6400T APU (model no. series 14-Z0). An updated version came in 2016 (model no. series 14-AX, 14-CB?) with 1.6 GHz Intel Celeron N3060. Another Stream 14 revision (model no. series 14-DS)

720-713: The 2007/2008 "Tick" was the shrink of the Core microarchitecture to 45 nanometers as CPUID model 23. In Core 2 processors, it is used with the code names Penryn (Socket P), Wolfdale (LGA 775) and Yorkfield (MCM, LGA 775), some of which are also sold as Celeron, Pentium and Xeon processors. In the Xeon brand, the Wolfdale-DP and Harpertown code names are used for LGA 771 based MCMs with two or four active Wolfdale cores. Architecturally, 45 nm Core 2 processors feature SSE4.1 and new divide/shuffle engine. The chips come in two sizes, with 6 MB and 3 MB L2 cache. The smaller version

765-417: The 3 IPC capability of P6 , Pentium M and NetBurst microarchitectures. The new architecture is a dual core design with a shared L2 cache engineered for maximum performance per watt and improved scalability. One new technology included in the design is Macro-Ops Fusion , which combines two x86 instructions into a single micro-operation . For example, a common code sequence like a compare followed by

810-619: The 3.0 GHz Woodcrest, and 40 or 35 watts for the low-voltage Woodcrest. In comparison, a 2.2 GHz AMD Opteron 875HE processor consumes 55 watts, while the energy efficient Socket AM2 line fits in the 35 watt thermal envelope (specified a different way so not directly comparable). Merom, the mobile variant, is listed at 35 watts TDP for standard versions and 5 watts TDP for ultra low voltage (ULV) versions. Previously, Intel announced that it would now focus on power efficiency, rather than raw performance. However, at Intel Developer Forum (IDF) in spring 2006, Intel advertised both. Some of

855-545: The Core microarchitecture at 64 KB L1 cache/core (32 KB L1 Data + 32 KB L1 Instruction) is as large as in Pentium M, up from 32 KB on Pentium II / III (16 KB L1 Data + 16 KB L1 Instruction). The consumer version also lacks an L3 cache as in the Gallatin core of the Pentium 4 Extreme Edition, though it is exclusively present in high-end versions of Core-based Xeons. Both an L3 cache and hyper-threading were reintroduced again to consumer line in

900-667: The E6000 series processors, only models E6550, E6750, and E6850 support Intel's Trusted Execution Technology (TXT). ^b Note: The L2 Stepping , and models with sSpec SL9ZL, SL9ZF, SLA4U, SLA4T, have better optimizations to lower idle power consumption from 22W to 12W. ^c Note: The M0 and G0 Steppings have better optimizations to lower idle power consumption from 12W to 8W.

1035-517: The Mobile Intel 965 Express ( Santa Rosa ) platform with Socket P , while the earlier B2 and L2 steppings only appear for the Socket M based Mobile Intel 945 Express ( Napa refresh ) platform. The model 22 stepping A1 (cpuid 10661h) marks a significant design change, with just a single core and 1 MB L2 cache further reducing the power consumption and manufacturing cost for the low-end. Like

1080-630: The Penryn technology, and the QX9775 is only compatible with the Intel D5400XS motherboard. The Wolfdale-3M model E7200 also has limited compatibility (at least the Xpress 200 chipset is incompatible ). Although a motherboard may have the required chipset to support Conroe, some motherboards based on the above-mentioned chipsets do not support Conroe. This is because all Conroe-based processors require

1125-515: The Xeon brand. The Conroe-L and Merom-L processors are based around the same core as Conroe and Merom, but only contain a single core and 1 MB of L2 cache, significantly reducing production cost and power consumption of the processor at the expense of performance compared to the dual-core version. It is used only in ultra-low voltage Core 2 Solo U2xxx and in Celeron processors and is identified as CPUID family 6 model 22. In Intel's Tick-Tock cycle,

1170-483: The chip to produce less heat, and minimize power use. For most Woodcrest CPUs, the front-side bus (FSB) runs at 1333 MT/s ; however, this is scaled down to 1066 MT/s for lower end 1.60 and 1.86 GHz variants. The Merom mobile variant was initially targeted to run at an FSB of 667 MT/s while the second wave of Meroms, supporting 800 MT/s FSB, were released as part of the Santa Rosa platform with

1215-415: The choice of a short and efficient pipeline, delivering superior performance despite not reaching the high clocks of NetBurst. The first processors that used this architecture were code-named ' Merom ', ' Conroe ', and ' Woodcrest '; Merom is for mobile computing, Conroe is for desktop systems, and Woodcrest is for servers and workstations. While architecturally identical, the three processor lines differ in

1260-420: The clocks it needed for competitive performance, making it unsuitable for the shift to dual/multi-core CPUs. On May 7, 2004 Intel confirmed the cancellation of the next NetBurst, Tejas and Jayhawk . Intel had been developing Merom, the 64-bit evolution of the Pentium M , since 2001, and decided to expand it to all market segments, replacing NetBurst in desktop computers and servers. It inherited from Pentium M

Among the issues stated: Intel errata Ax39, Ax43, Ax65, Ax79, Ax90, Ax99 are said to be particularly serious. 39, 43, 79, which can cause unpredictable behavior or system hang, have been fixed in recent steppings . Among those who have stated

1350-432: The earlier steppings, A1 is not used with the Mobile Intel 965 Express platform. Steppings G0, M0 and A1 mostly replaced all older steppings in 2008. In 2009, a new stepping G2 was introduced to replace the original stepping B2. In the model 23 (cpuid 01067xh), Intel started marketing stepping with full (6 MB) and reduced (3 MB) L2 cache at the same time, and giving them identical cpuid values. All steppings have

1395-506: The errata to be particularly serious are OpenBSD 's Theo de Raadt and DragonFly BSD 's Matthew Dillon . Taking a contrasting view was Linus Torvalds , calling the TLB issue "totally insignificant", adding, "The biggest problem is that Intel should just have documented the TLB behavior better." Microsoft has issued update KB936357 to address the errata by microcode update, with no performance penalty. BIOS updates are also available to fix

1440-463: The lower available memory bandwidth. The Core 2 memory management unit (MMU) in X6800, E6000 and E4000 processors does not operate to prior specifications implemented in prior generations of x86 hardware. This may cause problems, many of them serious security and stability issues, with extant operating system software. Intel's documentation states that their programming manuals will be updated "in

1485-458: The mobile and desktop processors come in two variants that differ in the size of the L2 cache, but the specific amount of L2 cache in a product can also be reduced by disabling parts at production time. Tigerton dual-cores and all quad-core processors except - are multi-chip modules combining two dies. For the 65 nm processors, the same product code can be shared by processors with different dies, but

1530-571: The new SSE4.1 instructions. Stepping C1/M1 was a bug fix version of C0/M0 specifically for quad core processors and only used in those. Stepping E0/R0 adds two new instructions (XSAVE/XRSTOR) and replaces all earlier steppings. In mobile processors, stepping C0/M0 is only used in the Intel Mobile 965 Express ( Santa Rosa refresh ) platform, whereas stepping E0/R0 supports the later Intel Mobile 4 Express ( Montevina ) platform. Model 30 stepping A1 (cpuid 106d1h) adds an L3 cache and six instead of

1575-420: The preceding NetBurst microarchitecture of the Pentium 4 and D -branded CPUs. The Core microarchitecture provides more efficient decoding stages, execution units, caches , and buses , reducing the power consumption of Core 2-branded CPUs while increasing their processing capacity. Intel's CPUs have varied widely in power consumption according to clock rate, architecture, and semiconductor process, shown in

1620-462: The prior Pentium 4 and Pentium D design, the Core 2 technology sees a greater benefit from memory running synchronously with the front-side bus (FSB). This means that for the Conroe CPUs with FSB of 1066 MT/s, the ideal memory performance for DDR2 is PC2-8500 . In a few configurations, using PC2-5300 instead of PC2-4200 can actually decrease performance. Only when going to PC2-6400

1665-475: The promised numbers were: The processors of the Core microarchitecture can be categorized by number of cores, cache size, and socket; each combination of these has a unique code name and product code that is used across several brands. For instance, code name "Allendale" with product code 80557 has two cores, 2 MB L2 cache and uses the desktop socket 775, but has been marketed as Celeron, Pentium, Core 2, and Xeon, each with different sets of features enabled. Most of

1710-530: The quad-core Core 2 processors can benefit significantly from using PC2-8500 memory, which runs at the same speed as the CPU's FSB; this is not an officially supported configuration, but several motherboards support it. The Core 2 processor does not require the use of DDR2. While the Intel 975X and P965 chipsets require this memory, some motherboards and chipsets support both Core 2 processors and DDR memory. When using DDR memory, performance may be reduced because of

The first Core-based desktop and mobile processors were branded Core 2 , later expanding to the lower-end Pentium Dual-Core , Pentium and Celeron brands; while server and workstation Core-based processors were branded Xeon . The Core microarchitecture returned to lower clock rates and improved the use of both available clock cycles and power when compared with

1845-914: The specific information about which one is used can be derived from the stepping. The original Core 2 processors are based on the same dies that can be identified as CPUID Family 6 Model 15. Depending on their configuration and packaging, their code names are Conroe ( LGA 775 , 4 MB L2 cache), Allendale (LGA 775, 2 MB L2 cache), Merom ( Socket M , 4 MB L2 cache) and Kentsfield ( multi-chip module , LGA 775, 2x4MB L2 cache). Merom and Allendale processors with limited features are in Pentium Dual Core and Celeron processors, while Conroe, Allendale and Kentsfield also are sold as Xeon processors. Additional code names for processors based on this model are Woodcrest (LGA 771, 4 MB L2 cache), Clovertown (MCM, LGA 771, 2×4MB L2 cache) and Tigerton (MCM, Socket 604 , 2×4MB L2 cache), all of which are marketed only under

Stepping L2 and M0 are the Allendale chips with just 2 MB L2 cache, reducing production cost and power consumption for low-end processors. The G0 and M0 steppings improve idle power consumption in C1E state and add the C2E state in desktop processors. In mobile processors, all of which support C1 through C4 idle states, steppings E1, G0, and M0 add support for
