The Performance-core is Intel’s highest-performing CPU core ever. And it’s designed to maximize single-thread performance and responsiveness for compute-intensive workloads like gaming and 3D design. The Efficientcore delivers multithreaded performance for tasks that can run in parallel(like image rendering), along with efficient offload of background tasks for modern multitasking.
So that Performance-cores and Efficient-cores can work seamlessly with the operating system, Intel built Intel® Thread Director right into the hardware. Automatically monitoring and analysing on-the-fly, Intel®Thread Director guides the operating system, helping it place the right thread on the right core, at the right time. And it does it all dynamically, adapting scheduling guidance based on actual computing needs, not on static rules.
12th Gen Intel® Core™ processors support the next wave of discrete graphics cards and storage devices. These devices take advantage of increased throughput coming with PCIe 5.0 as well the higher speeds and bandwidth of DDR5 memory.
Another standard feature of 12th Gen Intel® Core™processors: Intel® Wi-Fi 6E (Gig+). Offering exclusive, high-speed channels that other legacy devices simply can’t, Intel® Wi-Fi 6E lets you experience nearly 3x faster connectivity without interference. And that means more freedom to work or learn from home—or relax with super-smooth, high-quality streaming.
You can also connect your PC to multiple 4K monitors and other accessories, all with one reversible cable. The 12th Gen Intel® Core™processor family—our most innovative platform yet—enables Thunderbolt™ 4, the simplest, fastest, most reliable port available.
With 12th Gen Intel® Core™ processors, standard, built-infeatures enable capabilities like noise suppression, auto-framing, andoptimization for bandwidth and video resolution while gaming. That saves youtime and lets you multitask in ways you’ve only ever dreamed of—until now.
From epic gaming to browsing to streaming to creating yournext masterpiece, 12th Gen Intel® Core™ processors make it all entirely doable.
