Five Ivy Bridge Core i3 models/specification exposure

It is no secret that Ivy Bridge will be released in April. Previously we have exposed the models and specifications of the Ivy BridgeCore i5/i7 and the two embedded Core i3s. Today, ZOL broke out with details of five new Ivy Bridge Core i3s.

The Ivy Bridge Core i3 is also divided into the standard version and the low-power version. The standard version of the thermal design consumes 55W, while the low-power version uses 35W for the thermal design. A total of two low-power versions of the Ivy Bridge Core i3 were released, starting with the Core i3-3220T, a dual-core quad-threaded design, with a default frequency of 2.8 GHz, 3MB of L3 cache, and an integrated HD Graphics 2500 graphics core ( Core frequency 650/1050MHz), memory support DDR3-1333/1600, thermal design power 35W. Technologies such as PCI-E 3.0, VT-D, and AES-NI are not supported. This is followed by the Core i3 3240T, which is 200MHz faster than the i3-3220T and reaches 3.0GHz. The remaining specifications are exactly the same.

Standard version of the Ivy Bridge Core i3 this time exposed three, the first is the lowest-end Core i3-3220, the default frequency of 3.3GHz, has 3MB of L3 cache, integrated HD Graphics 2500 graphics display core, memory support DDR3-1333/1600 Thermal design power 55W. Also does not support PCI-E 3.0, VT-D, and AES-NI features. Second, the default frequency of the Core i3-3225 remains the same, the integrated display core is replaced with the HD Graphics 4000 (core frequency 650/1050MHz), and the thermal design power consumption remains at 55W. Finally, the Core i3-3240 clocked at 100MHz and reached 3.4GHz. Other aspects are consistent with i3-3220.

In other respects, Ivy Bridge Core i3 does not support dynamic acceleration like SNB Core i3. At the same time, we also found that Ivy Bridge's proud native support for PCI-E 3.0 was also cut off on i3. This means that users who want to upgrade PCI-E 3.0 using Ivy Bridge Core i3 must connect with the CPU. After all, future high-end graphics cards will support the PCI-E 3.0 specification. Intel's money-raising plan is near. A step.
