Anyone heard much about Intel® Core™ i3



Core i3 adopts 32nm technology (codenamed Clarkdale, based on Westmere architecture). Its biggest characteristics is integrated GPU, that is to say, Core i3 will be in CPU + GPU package from. Due to the limited performance of integrated GPU, users can add graphics outside for better 3D performance. Despite of Clarkdale, graphics kernel process is still 45nm.

Core i3 CPU adopts dual-core design in specs.It can support 4 threads, L3 cache is reduced from 8MB to 4MB. memory controller, dual-channel, intelligent acceleration technology, hyper-thread technology will be retained. Corresponding motherboard will be P55/P57. Core i3 processors will be published next year.

I'm finding the new flood of CPU's and sockets a bit confusing heh! :p
