New Intel Core processors, based on its 32nm technology manufacturing are, say the company, 32% smaller than standard devices. Intel claims that the devices deliver over 32% better performance and reduce power consumption more than 15%.
The Intel Core Ultra-Low Voltage processors are designed for applications such as ultra thin laptops.
Mooly Eden, vice president and general manager of the PC Client Group at Intel, said: "Intel's leadership in 32nm high-k metal gate process technology, combined with breakthrough architecture and design has enabled thinner, lighter and faster notebooks than previous models, with terrific battery life. Not only are laptops becoming ultraportable, but with the new processors inside, users will see faster response times and less waiting."
According to Eden, processors that feature Intel turbo boost technology can automatically accelerate performance, adjusting to the workload to give users an immediate performance boost when needed. Intel hyper-threading technology, available in Intel Core i7, Intel Core i5 and Intel Core i3 processors, is designed to provide responsiveness and help reduce latency when performing several tasks simultaneously. With Intel hd graphics, the processors are designed to deliver clear visuals and smooth hd video and audio playback.
More than 40 designs are expected from computer makers such as Acer, Asus, Lenovo and MSI, and will be offered at a variety of price points beginning in June.
