Intel® Advanced Smart Cache improves system performance by significantly reducing memory latency to frequently used data through dynamic allocation of shared L2 cache to each of the processor cores.

Intel® Smart Memory Access optimizes use of available data bandwidth from the memory subsystem to accelerate out-of-order execution. The prediction mechanism reduces the time in-flight instructions must wait for data, while pre-fetch algorithms move data from system memory into fast L2 cache in advance of execution. 45nm process technology further improves these features with more efficient methods of loading and storing data in main memory. These functions keep the pipeline full, improving instruction throughput and performance.

Intel® Advanced Digital Media Boost accelerates execution of SSE/2/3 instructions to significantly improve multimedia performance. 128-bit SSE instructions are issued at a throughput rate of one per-clock cycle, effectively doubling the speed of execution on a per-clock basis over previous-generation processors. 45nm process technology delivers a new super shuffle engine, which improves existing SSE instructions while enabling significant gains on the latest SSE4 instruction set. As a result, SSE4-optimized applications such as video editing and encoding in high-definition resolution will see additional performance improvements.
