apple mac mini mid 2010 intel core 2 duo p8800

The P8800 uses a Penryn (Montevina Update) core that features 2 integer units, 1 floating point unit, 1 load unit, and 1 store unit in a 14-stages long pipeline. High end gamers should choose a higher clocked Dual Core instead (when using a high end GPU). Due to the smaller cache (Core 2 Duo T-Models got usually 6 MB at this clock rate), the TDP is only 25 Watt (instead of the 35 Watt of the T-models).ĭue to the relatively high clock speed, modern games (in 2009) should not be limited by the CPU speed (in conjunction with a middle class graphics card). It features 2.66 GHz and a shared level 2 cache of 3 MB. The Intel Core 2 Duo P8800 is a dual core processor for laptops. Therefore, the CPU is suited for tablets and ultrabooks. If necessary, the TDP can be set to an even lower value of 10 W (cTDP Down). The 3439Y is rated at a TDP of 13 W including graphics card and memory controller. The integrated Intel HD Graphics 4000 offers 16 Execution Units (EUs) clocked at 350 MHz up to 850 MHz with Turbo Boost, delivering a performance comparable with an AMD Radeon HD 6520G. Overall, the 3439Y should be a bit faster than the Core i3-3217U. Therefore, the maximum turbo clocks are rarely achieved. The performance of the Core i5-3439Y is limited by the very low TDP. Other new features are integrated PCI Express 3.0 and DDR3(L)-1600 support. The CPUs are produced in 22nm (versus 32nm Sandy Bridge CPUs) and are the first to introduce 3D transistors for increased energy efficiency when compared to similarly clocked Sandy Bridge processors. Ivy Bridge is an enhanced d ie shrink of the Sandy Bridge architecture with improvements on both GPU and CPU performance. As other dual core Core i5, it offers a 3 MB 元-Cache. Each core offers a base speed of 1.5 GHz but can dynamically increase clock rates with Turbo Boost up to 2.1 GHz (for 2 active cores) and 2.3 GHz (for 1 active core). Due to Hyperthreading, the two cores can handle up to four threads in parallel leading to better utilization of the CPU. The Intel Core i5- 3439Y is an ULV-processor for ultrabooks and tablets based on the Ivy Bridge architecture.
