Intel® Core™2 Quad Processors

Intel® Core™2 Quad Processors
Introducing Intel® Core™2 Quad processor for notebook and desktop PCs, designed to handle massive compute and visualization workloads enabled by powerful multi-core technology. Optimized for the longest possible battery life without compromise to performance, Intel Core 2 Quad processors for notebooks allow you to stay unwired longer while running the most compute-intensive applications.
Providing all the bandwidth you need for next-generation highly-threaded applications, the latest four-core Intel Core 2 Quad processors are built on 45nm Intel® Core™ microarchitecture enabling faster, cooler, and quieter mobile and desktop PC and workstation experiences.
Plus, with optional Intel® vPro™ technology, you have the ability to remotely isolate, diagnose, and repair infected desktop and mobile workstations wirelessly and outside of the firewall, even if the PC is off, or the OS is unresponsive.

Features and Benefits
With four processing cores, up to 12MB of shared L2 cache,¹ and up to 1066 MHz Front Side Bus for notebooks, and up to 12MB of L2 cache² and up to 1333 MHz Front Side Bus for desktops, the Intel Core 2 Quad processor delivers amazing performance and power efficiency enabled by the all new hafnium-based circuitry of 45nm Intel Core microarchitecture.
Whether you're encoding, rendering, editing, or streaming HD multimedia in the office or on the go, power your most demanding applications with notebooks and desktops based on the Intel Core 2 Quad processor.
Plus, with these processors you get great Intel® technologies built in:

Intel® Dual-Core Technology

Intel® Dual-Core Technology
Designed from the ground up for revolutionary energy-efficient performance, Intel® dual-core processors enable exceptional productivity enhancing features and rich multimedia experiences. As the catalyst for new processor architecture design, Intel dual-core processors have become the standard for our desktop, mobile, and server platforms.
Do more at once than ever before with Intel inside

The Intel dual-core processor consists of two complete execution cores in one physical processor. Imagine that a dual-core processor is like a four-lane highway—it can handle up to twice as many cars as a two-lane road without making each car drive twice as fast.
Similarly, with an Intel dual-core processor, you can do more at once than ever before, without slowing down:
Boost multitasking power with improved performance for highly multithreaded and compute-intensive applications
Reduce costs and use less power with energy-efficient Intel dual-core processors built on Intel® Core™ microarchitecture
Enjoy flexibility and the performance to handle robust content creation or intense gaming with multimedia-enabling technologies built in
