Improved Performance. CPU is 10% faster than the previous generation as the processor, graphics, and memory controller all sit on one 22nm die. USB 3.0 provides faster transfer rates than USB 2.0 (up to 4.8 Gbps), and provides up to 10X more power for connected devices. 

Increased Security. Intel Anti-Theft 4.0 technology provides remote disablement of a computer in the event that it becomes stolen. Intel Identity Protection Technology provides hardware based, two factor authentications for the protection of user’s sensitive personal data. 

Improved Visuals and Integrated Graphics. Intel HD Graphics provides next generation graphics integration for a stunning visual experience. Intel Insider 2.0 is a feature that allows users to easily stream legally acquired video content in high definition, without any hassle.

Intel Turbo Boost 2.0. Intel’s next generation of adaptive performance is more intelligent, energy- efficient and dynamic than ever before. When there’s enough thermal capacity in the notebook, it boosts the performance of one core if the other is idle. These bursts of performance add speed when it‘s needed and conserve energy when it’s not. 

Intel Hyper Threading 2.0. Intel Hyper-Threading Technology enables each processor core to work on two tasks at the same time, giving the user smooth multitasking performance to move between applications quickly and without hesitation. This is the starting point for visibly smart performance. 

Intel HD Graphics. Intel HD graphics offers higher-performing, visually rich graphics and media that improve the user experience. With support for the latest application programming interfaces, such as Direct X 11, fast content conversion and sync to portable devices, and programs such as Intel Insider 2.0, Intel Quick Sync video, WiDi 3.0, and in Tru3D, users get a complete graphics and multimedia package that provides them with the tools needed to deliver amazing performance and stunning visuals.
