Information about their processors with 32 nm fabrication was circulated a few months ago. Now Intel has begun marketing the processor with 32 nm manufacturing process is Core I5 661.
The most visible difference is the Core I5 661 is a dual-core processor while the Core I5 processor 750 is a four-core (quad-core processor as other processors joined the ranks of code name Clarkdale). In addition, this is the first processor to successfully integrate graphics processing into the “home” processor. The rest is the same for both Lynnfield and Clarkdale was built on the Nehalem architecture.
I5 661 core has its own privileges. Faster graphics processing speeds than siblings. This also impacted on its TDP is also higher among other Clarkdale processor.
Own graphics processor is an Intel GMA with DX10 support specifications that are similar to the integrated GMA X4500 on Intel G41 chipset.
From the test results, I5 Core 661 processor has a fairly competitive performance compared to Core I5 750. Graphics processing capabilities are not yet reliable for serious gaming (although the speed is high enough), but more than enough for everyday use. Solutions integrated graphics processor is also an attractive added value because it is now lined with Clarkdale, the solution all-in-one computing can be realized to be more concise.
