- 2nd Generation Intel® Core® Processor With Intel® HD Graphics
Visibly Smart Performance at its Best
2nd generation Intel® Core® processor with Intel® HD Graphics
Intel® HD Graphics enables superior mainstream gaming and 3D experiences – without the need for a discrete graphics card. Plus, it integrates advanced 3D processing for stunning visual experiences that put you right into the middle of the action.
Intel's new HD Graphics driver 15.22.1.64.2361 delivers up to 43% performance improvement¹ over the previous driver version 15.21.5.64.2266. You can achieve well over 30 frames per second with mainstream games such as Batman*: Arkham Asylum, Call of Duty*: Black Ops, and Resident Evil* 5.

¹ Up to 43% improvement is based on measured frame rate of several games such as Far Cry* 2 v 1.03, H.A.W.X.* 2, Call of Duty*: Black Ops, Crysis Warhead* v1.00 - benchmark_cargo test, Resident Evil* 5 Benchmark – Variable, Enemy Territories Quake Wars* 1.5, Starcraft* 2: Wings of Liberty – Outlaws, BattleForge*, Batman*: Arkham Asylum v1.1 - Built in Test.
Software and workloads used in performance tests may have been optimized for performance only on Intel® microprocessors. Performance tests, such as SYSmark* and MobileMark*, are measured using specific computer systems, components, software, operations, and functions. Any change to any of those factors may cause the results to vary. You should consult other information and performance tests to assist you in fully evaluating your contemplated purchases, including the performance of that product when combined with other products.
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 Intel Performance: Benchmark Limitations.
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.
