Intels strategy with the release of new generations of processors can be simplified this way: Intel takes the already undisputed best and tops it by yourself even better. Theoretically impossible? Practically! The best proof of the current processors, codenamed Ivy Bridge are. The Core i CPUs are the third generation compared to their predecessors, namely, in every respect more powerful at the same time lower power consumption.
Responsible for this is not an entirely new design, because that is broadly accepted by Sandy Bridge, but has been revamped. The real step forward in manufacturing technology Intel did: Was it before or 32 nm, the Ivy Bridges now be produced in 22-nm process up to 1.4 billion transistors can come together on one die, were with Sandy Bridge it even in the highest stage of 300 million less.

The main effect is a much smaller appetite for energy, so that the offered here, very economical Core i3-3225 is assigned a TDP of only 55 watts of Intel. Big profits but also attracts the integrated Sandy Bridge graphics core from semiconductor increase – up to 30 percent acceleration can be reported over the previous versions! The i3-3225 relies on the HD 4000 GPU, the faster of the two current levels. *
The first officially possible use of DDR3 memory at 1,600 MHz provides another rendering boost, because the graphics unit of Ivy Bridge scales very well with higher RAM clock and delivers up to seven percent more graphics power over the use of 1,333-MHz RAM, so users of the integrated GPU should be advised to faster memory modules. The difference in the actual processor performance falls between Sandy and Ivy Bridge although not quite as high, but with the five percent increase still exists – at the same clock, of course.
This is the Core i3-3225 3.3 GHz high. The processor has a 3 MB L3 cache and two cores, thanks to Intels Hyper-Threading but capable to process four threads simultaneously. On the features of its predecessors – about AVX or AES – he must not abandon course, on the other hand can trump even the first time with support for PCI Express 3.0, although of course a corresponding mainboard and such a board must be present.
With Intels 7-series chipsets, Panther Point, and even specially tailored and Ivy Bridge motherboards for use are available, which now offer native USB 3.0 support, no longer so compelling an extra chip installed on the boards must. Since the Core i processors third generation but continue to work on the socket 1155, many older boards with Z68 or P67 chipset latest after a BIOS update to them are compatible. Before purchasing this should not be placed on motherboard manufacturer in experience.
In this boxed version of the processor includes a matching CPU cooler from Intel included.
* To use the integrated graphics unit, the use of a compatible motherboards is necessary.
