¹ Intel® Turbo Boost Technology requires a PC with a processor with Intel Turbo Boost Technology capability. Intel Turbo Boost Technology performance varies depending on hardware, software, and overall system configuration. Check with your PC manufacturer on whether your system delivers Intel Turbo Boost Technology. See www.intel.com/technology/turboboost/ for more information.
² Intel® Core™ i5-750 processor with a 2.66 GHz base frequency reaches a maximum Turbo frequency of 3.20 GHz. See www.intel.com/technology/turboboost/ for more information.
³ PCMark* Vantage is a collection of various single- and multi-threaded CPU, Graphics, and HDD test sets with the focus on Windows* Vista application tests. Tests have been selected to represent a subset of the individual Windows Vista Consumer Scenarios.
ø Intel® High Definition Experience and Performance Ratings Test 2009 (Intel® HDXPRT 2009) is a benchmark that runs consumer digital media applications on a PC, measures performance, and provides an indicator of the expected quality of video playback. Intel® HDXPRT 2009 automatically runs tests using commercially available applications from the following usage categories: music encoding, photo and video editing, and High Definition video playback. Results may vary depending on many variables including the processor, memory, disk drive, graphics card and operating system on the test system. For more information go to: http://www.intelcapabilitiesforum.net/downloads/hdxprt/.
∇ 3DMark* Vantage CPU test covers the two most common CPU-side tasks: Physics simulation and artificial intelligence. The CPU tests measures the contribution of the processor on 3D graphical performance while the graphics test measures game simulation performance.
Ω Apple iTunes* 7.4.3 is a digital media application that can be used to manage digital music such as converting from one digital audio format to another. In this case, Apple iTunes is used to convert 61 minutes, 24 seconds of music from WAV to MP3 format with a bit rate of 160Kbps for listening on your iPod*.
φ As measured based on Adobe* Album Starter where the workload consists of running auto smart-fix on 50 6MP photos that total about 118MB in size.
° As measured based on VirtualDub* 1.7.2 with DivX* 6.7 codec comparing Intel® Core™ i5-750 processor based laptops to Intel® Pentium® Processor E5300. Actual performance may vary. See www.intel.com/performance for important additional information.
Performance tests and ratings are measured using specific computer systems and/or components and reflect the approximate performance of Intel® products as measured by those tests. Any difference in system hardware or software design or configuration may affect actual performance. Buyers should consult other sources of information to evaluate the performance of systems or components they are considering purchasing. For more information on performance tests and on the performance of Intel products, visit www.intel.com/performance/resources/benchmark_limitations.htm.
Relative performance for each benchmark is calculated by taking the actual benchmark result for the first platform tested and assigning it a value of 1.0 as a baseline. Relative performance for the remaining platforms tested was calculated by dividing the actual benchmark result for the baseline platform into each of the specific benchmark results of each of the other platforms and assigning them a relative performance number that correlates with the performance improvements reported.
