Introduction
The Intel?Core. microarchitecture is a new foundation for
Intel?architecture-based desktop, mobile, and mainstream server
multi-core processors. This state-of-the-art multi-core optimized
and power-efficient microarchitecture is designed to deliver
increased performance and performance-per-watt-thus increasing
overall energy efficiency. This new microarchitecture extends
the energy efficient philosophy first delivered in Intel’s mobile
microarchitecture found in the Intel?Pentium?M processor, and
greatly enhances it with many new and leading edge microarchitectural
innovations as well as existing Intel NetBurst?
microarchitecture features. What’s more, it incorporates many
new and significant innovations designed to optimize the
power, performance, and scalability of multi-core processors.
The Intel Core microarchitecture shows Intel’s…
