Energy-Efficient Performance

Energy-efficient performance

Intel leads the computing industry in finding innovative ways to create products that are both powerful and energy-efficient. We work with key organizations to establish benchmarks and track metrics.

45nm high-performance processors

By shrinking transistor size from 65nm to 45nm and using different transistor materials, we've dramatically increased the performance and efficiency of Intel Core microarchitecture. Intel's 45nm processors are produced using a lead-free process and use Hi-k silicon technology for reduced transistor leakage, enabling more energy-efficient, high-performance processors. These products result in sleeker, smaller and more energy-efficient desktops, notebook PCs, mobile devices and server designs.

Intel® Core™2 Duo, Intel® Core™2 Quad, and Intel® Xeon® processor families

Based on revolutionary Intel® Core™ and Intel® Xeon® microarchitecture, the breakthrough processor families provide powerful energy-efficient performance so you can do more at once without slowing down.
