Intel Third-Geneartion Ivy Bridge Core Series
Performance results don’t lie. Ivy Bridge processors have exhibited
significantly faster speeds than their planar-gate predecessors. Their
Tri-Gate technology incorporates 3-D transistors that maximize
current flow when in the on state and consume close to zero when off.
Also significant, Ivy Bridge is the first Intel processor series
with direct support for DirectX 11, Microsoft’s latest graphics
and multimedia APIs. On this score, Intel archrival AMD is no
longer the only game in town. And as Intel promised, Ivy Bridge
processors use the same sockets as Sandy Bridge parts.
