From the Manufacturer
---------------------
Part of Intel's family of 2nd generation Intel Core computer
processors, the Intel Core i5-2400S Processor delivers speed and
smooth performance --whether you're uploading and editing home
videos or checking your e-mail. This quad-core processor runs at
2.50 GHz and uses the LGA1155 socket. It features a 6 MB L3
cache, Intel Turbo Boost Technology 2.0, and Virtualization
Technology to improve speed and computing productivity. Built-in
visual technologies, like Clear Video and InTru3D, support
high-definition and Blu-ray playback.
Intel Core i5-2400S Processor
-----------------------------
Quad-Core Processor Running at 2.50 GHz for Fast Performance
------------------------------------------------------------
The Intel Core i5-2400S has four processing cores running at 2.50
GHz. It features a 6 MB L3 shared cache that is dynamically
allocated to each processor core, based on workload. This reduces
latency and improves performance.
Additionally, the i5 comes with Advanced Vector Extensions, a set
of instructions to improve software performance for intensive
applications like audio processing, audio codecs, and image and
video editing applications.
Turbo Boost for Extra Processor Speed
-------------------------------------
The Core i5-2400S features Intel Turbo Boost Technology 2.0,
which delivers a burst of processor speed automatically when the
workload demands additional performance. The technology
dynamically increases the processor's frequency as needed by
taking advantage of thermal and power headroom when operating
below specified limits. The result is adaptive performance that's
more intelligent and energy efficient.
Built-In Visuals Provide Rich, Steady Graphics
----------------------------------------------
The built-in visuals of the Intel Core i5-2400S Processor deliver
a seamless graphic experience when you're viewing and
manipulating pictures and media on your PC. They also eliminate
the need for a discrete graphics card, reducing power consumption
and system cost.
Intel Quick Sync Video enables quick conversions of video files
for portable media players or online sharing. Experience sharp
images and rich color with Clear Video Technology, which provides
visual quality and color fidelity enhancements for vivid
high-definition and Blu-ray playback. Intel HD Graphics offers
enhanced 3D performance for immersive mainstream and casual
gaming without hesitations or interruptions.
The Intel Core i5 is also equipped with Intel InTru3D, which
provides stereoscopic 3D Blu-ray playback in full 1080p
resolution and premium audio via HDMI 1.4.
Intel Virtualization Technology
-------------------------------
Intel Virtualization Technology allows multiple "virtual"
environments to function on one hardware platform. It offers
improved manageability, limiting downtime and maintaining
productivity by isolating computing activities into separate
partitions.
Optimized for Energy Efficiency
-------------------------------
The Intel Core i5 is designed to optimize every watt of
electricity, resulting in a more energy-efficient system that is
cooler and cheaper to run. In a system with other
energy-efficient components, the processor can meet Energy Star
specifications.
