More threads result in faster performance and better multitasking.

turbo clock speed

3.1GHz

When the CPU is running below its limitations, it can boost to a higher clock speed in order to give increased performance.

Has an unlocked multiplier

✖Intel Core i5-2450M

Some processors come with an unlocked multiplier which makes them easy to overclock, allowing you to gain increased performance in games and other apps.

L2 cache

A larger L2 cache results in faster CPU and system-wide performance.

L3 cache

A larger L3 cache results in faster CPU and system-wide performance.

L1 cache

x264 encoding pass 2

x264 Pass 2 is a slower MPEG4 x264 video compression benchmark, resulting in a variable bit rate output file. This results in a better quality of the resulting video file, as a higher bit rate is used when it is needed more. The benchmark result is still measured in frames per second.

x264 encoding pass 1

The x264 benchmark uses the MPEG 4 x264 compression method to encode the sample video in HD (720p). Pass 1 is a faster option that produces an output file at a constant bit rate. Its result is measured in frames per second, that is, how many frames of the source video file were encoded in one second on average.
