Across the Intel Sandy Bridge ADVERTORIAL ADVERTORIAL Innovations: Faster, Better and More Efficient Compared to its first generation Intel® Core™ i7 predecessors, the Intel® Core™ A smaller fabrication process lets the Intel® Sandy Bridge systems use less energy, i7-2600K offers a huge amount of advancements and this is further reflected in its and a native 32nm fabrication process ensures that you get more performance performance. Using a performance Intel P67-chipset board along with the Intel® without leading to higher electricity costs. Less energy used also means less heat Core™ i7-2600K processor, the Sandy Bridge platform easily breezes through generated, so that your computer system stays cooler and therefore lasts a whole benchmarks such as Futuremark’s PCMark05 and PCMark Vantage. lot longer. Not content with just a native 32nm fabrication process, Intel® has also added new innovations such as Turbo Boost 2.0, which allows for longer and Overclocking Performance higher-clocked periods of extra performance. Building upon previous innovations, some new Sandy Bridge processors also use Intel® vPro™ technologies for better security, while all of the processors feature better on-chip integration for the onboard graphics and memory controller. The new onboard graphics processors include the Intel® GMA HD 2000 and 3000, which have higher clock speeds and their own Turbo Boost, so the graphics can speed automatically up as you need it to. Other innovations include hardware- encoded media codecs such as H.264, along with features like Quick Sync Video, InTru 3D and AVX instructions built into the graphics processors themselves. This means even faster transcoding for HD media content, along with faster and smoother graphics for both games and movies. The Intel® Core™ i7-2600K Processor The Intel® Extreme Tuning Utility (“XTU”) offers users non- BIOS alternative to overclocking As an unlocked performance processor, the Intel® Core™ i7-2600K can perform even further through overclocking. Utilizing the board's BIOS and the new Intel® The Intel® Sandy Bridge micro-architecture marks the arrival of the second Extreme Tuning Utility (“XTU”), the Intel® Core™ i7-2600K offers immense generation Intel® Core™ desktop and mobile processors. Building upon overclocking potential by enabling certain voltage limiters and playing around with the core processor multipliers. Just a minor overclock to 3.5GHz over the advances and innovations that were developed for the Intel® Nehalem and standard 3.4GHz at standard 100MHz base or host clock resulted in a significant Westmere micro-architecture, Intel® Sandy Bridge takes these innovations boost in performance. several steps further, adding on new innovations while accelerating the overall performance for computer users around the world. About Sandy Bridge: Chipsets and Processors Following Intel’s Tick Tock roadmap, the As a ‘K’ version processor, the Intel® Core™ i7-2600K features unlocked CPU clock Intel® Sandy Bridge micro-architecture multipliers for better overclocking potential.

As such, it offers much greater advancements compared to Westmere, such as better energy The Intel® Core™ i7-2600K has unlocked CPU clock multipliers for better The Intel® Core™ i7-2600K delivers overclocking performance a PCMark05 score of 12220, which efficiency while delivering faster is significantly higher than previous performance. generation processors like the Intel® Core™ i7-870 The Intel® Sandy Bridge micro-architecture is therefore the actual second-generation for Intel® Core™ ACROSS processors and chipsets. These Sandy Bridge chipsets are known as the Intel® 6 Series, taking over from the The Intel® Core™ i7-2600K processor can overclock all previous generation’s Intel® 5 Series. The Intel® 6 Series chipsets include the P67, H67, B65 and Q67 chipsets, the way up to 4.8GHz on just all of which are designed to target specific types or segments of computer users. The Intel P67 chipset, for air cooling THE example, targets the performance consumer market, which consists of users with high-end performance The processor's PCMark The Intel® Core™ i7-2600K overclocks through its Turbo Boost taking advantage needs, such as gamers and enthusiast users. These boards use a new LGA 1155 socket, which can only be Vantage score of 11254 of the existing architecture while increasing energy efficiency as the processor easily outperforms current used with new Intel® Sandy Bridge processors. processor offerings powers down when not required further increasing processor lifetime. This performance overhead is definitely higher than its predecessors, which have been INTEL Intel® Sandy Bridge processors also target specific users as well, and to make this process more precise, known to only reach 4.2GHz.
