core i3

All core i processors have number of  multiple individual processor cores and an integrated Graphic Processor Unit (GPU) packed in a single physical package. GPU contains all the necessary hardware in it to calculate the floating point values of graphics. GPU also helps to render graphics smoothly without the need of an external Graphic card. i processors run on DDR3 technology.



i3 is the basic i core processor. This contains two processor cores and an integrated GPU. The intel i series starts from i3. It is designed to be fast and responsive when compared to its preceding processors like core2duo. 


i3 is fabricated using 32nm technology.


processor number | cache memory | clock speed | number of cores
      i3-550                  4 MB             3.2 GHz               2                 
      i3-540                  4 MB             3.06GHz               2                 
      i3-530                  4 MB             2.93GHz               2                 


The bus speed of all the i3 processors is 2.5 GT/S. this means that the data transfer rate is 2.5 Giga Transfers per second.




features of core i3:
  • intel hyper threading technology supporting upto 4 threads
  • Intel HD graphics
  • intel smart cache
  • Integrated memory controller enabling two channels of DDR3 ram cards at 1333MHz
