Legal Notices and Important Information Intel processor numbers are not a measure of performance. Processor numbers differentiate features within each processor family, not across different processor families. Go to: http://www.intel.com/products/processor_number Performance results are based on certain tests measured on specific computer systems. Any difference in system hardware, software or configuration will affect actual performance. Configurations: see Appendix A.
