Enables the delivery of more instructions per clock cycle for shorter execution times and improved energy efficiency?accomplish more simultaneously and with greater efficiency. Intel® Intelligent Power Capability. Turning off portions of the processor when they aren't being used improves overall energy efficiency and reduces heat production, resulting in a quieter, more energy efficient system. Intel® Smart Memory Access. Increasing available data bandwidth means more multitasking with less slowdown?run more demanding applications simultaneously and accomplish more in less time. Intel® Advanced Smart Cache. Placing data closer to the processing cores improves platform responsiveness and performance with a wide range of applications. Intel® Advanced Digital Media Boost. Accelerates performance with a wide range of applications, including video, gaming, speech and image, photo processing, encryption, financial, engineering and scientific applications. Multitasking With programs and applications gradually becoming more complex and graphics intensive, running multiple programs simultaneously can quickly consume available processing resources. As a result, computers with traditional single core processors can grind to a halt when running multiple applications. However, by placing two cores on a single processor, the Intel Pentium Dual-Core processor transforms slow, burdened processing into a thing of the past. Energy Efficiency By turning off portions of the processor when they are not needed, Intel® Intelligent Power Capability optimizes energy usage while ensuring that performance is available only when it is needed. As a result, desktops featuring the Intel Pentium Dual-Core processor can run quieter and be smaller and lighter than previous-generation PCs.  more
