Intel Microarchitecture, Codenamed Nehalem

Intel Microarchitecture, Codenamed Nehalem

Intel's latest-generation microarchitecture, first exemplified as the Intel Core i7 processor, represents the next step in faster, multi-core technology that intelligently maximized performance to match your workload. Designed from the ground up to take advantage of 45nm Hi-k next generation Intel Core microarchitecture, Intel microarchitecture, codenamed Nehalem, unleashes parallel processing performance enabled by an integrated memory controller and Intel QuickPath Technology providing high-speed interconnects per independent processing core.

The next level of multi-core performance

Intel microarchitecture, codenamed Nehalem, offers the latest in processor innovation, including:

-Dynamic scalability, managed cores, threads, cache, interfaces, and power for energy-efficient performance on-demand.
-Design and performance scalability for servers, workstations, notebooks, and desktops with support for 2-8+ cores and up to 16+ threads with Intel Hyper-Threading Technology (IntelHT Technology), and scalable cache sizes, system interconnects, and integrated memory controllers.
-Intelligent performance on-demand with Intel Turbo Boost Technology taking advantage of the processor's power and thermal headroom. This enables increased performance of both multi-threaded and single-threaded workloads.
-Increased performance on highly-threaded applications with Intel HT Technology, bringing high-performance applications into mainstream computing with 1-16+ threads optimized for new generation multi-core processor architecture.
-Scalable shared memory features memory distributed to each processor with integrated memory controllers and Intel QuickPath Technology high-speed point-to-point interconnects to unleash the performance of future versions of next-generation Intel multi-core processors.
-Multi-level shared cache improves performance and efficiency by reducing latency to frequently used data.
