Intel Launches the Intel® Core™ M Processor

New Core M Enables Razor-thin, Fanless Designs with the Optimal Blend of Beauty, Performance and Battery Life; Available Late 2014

ISLAMABAD ( ABRAR MUSTAFA )

 At IFA, the global trade show for consumer electronics and home appliances, Intel has launched the new Intel® Core™ M processor, which will power new 2in1 devices from a variety of manufacturers, including: Acer*, ASUS*, Dell*, HP*, Lenovo* and Toshiba*.

Delivering the optimal blend of mobility and performance, Intel’s new processor was purpose-built for amazing performance in the thinnest, fanless ultra-mobile devices. The Intel Core M processor can power razor-thin devices with Intel Core level performance and deliver up to double the battery life when compared to a four-year old system.1

“We’ve been on a multi-year mission to address end-user requirements and transform mobile computing. The introduction of Core M marks a significant milestone in that journey,” said Kirk Skaugen, senior vice president and general manager of personal computing at Intel Corporation. “Core M is the first of a new product family designed to deliver the promise of one of the world’s thinnest laptops and highest performance tablets in a single 2in1 device.”

Faster Performance and Even More Battery Life

The Intel Core M enables up to 50 percent faster compute performance and 40 percent faster graphics performance versus the comparable 4th generation Core processor.2 Consumers with older PCs will notice a more significant performance improvement: Intel Core M delivers up to two times the compute performance and up to seven times better graphics compared to a four year old PC, for example.1

In 2013, Intel delivered the biggest generation-over-generation battery life improvement in the company’s history. Intel® Core™ M processor and platform power reductions raise the bar on battery life even higher. The Intel Core M processor can handle more than eight hours of video play; which is up to 20 percent (1.7 hours) longer battery life versus the previous generation Intel Core processor3 and double the battery life of the average four-year-old PC.1

Thin, Fanless 2in1s Available for Holiday 2014 … and Beyond

The Intel Core M processor package is 50 percent smaller and, at 4.5 watts, has sixty percent lower thermal power than the previous generation.4 This lets OEMs design sleek, fanless systems less than 9mm thin – thinner than an AAA battery and today’s sleekest laptops. There are alreadymore than twentyIntel Core M processor-based OEM products in the development pipeline. The first systems based on the Intel Core M processor will be on shelves for the holiday selling season.

At IFA, manufacturers including Acer, ASUS, Dell, HP, and Lenovo unveiled new, coming-soon Intel Core M processor-based devices across a range of sizes, styles and price points.

Intel also previewed a forthcoming Intel Core M processor-based design from Toshiba, and said broader availability of Intel Core M processor-based devices is expected in the first half of 2015. To further sytem choice and availability, Intel said it is working with ODMs including Wistron* and others. Wistron plans an Intel Core M  processor-based design inspired by the Intel “Llama Mountain” reference device. Intel first unveiled the stunning, fanless Llama Mountain reference device, which measures 7.2mm thin and weighs a mere 670 grams, at Computex in Taiwan earlier this year.

A “Conflict-Free” Processor; Additional Features

                Intel Core M is a “conflict-free” product, which means this product does not contain conflict minerals (tin, tantalum, tungsten and/or gold) that directly or indirectly finance or benefit armed groups in the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC) or adjoining countries.

The Intel Core M processor is available in several versions: the up to 2.0GHz Intel Core M-5Y10/5Y10a processors and the up to 2.6GHz Intel Core M-5Y70 processor. The Core M-5Y70 is the highest performing Core M processor and is also available with Intel vPro technology for business 2in1s with built-in security features to help protect data, user identities and network access.5

Additional Intel Core M platform features include support for high-quality audio, Intel® Wireless Display 5.0, Intel’s second generation 802.11ac products, and will evolve to support wireless docking with WiGig from Intel. For more information visit: www.intel.com.
