  • Excellentes performances globales, Hyper-threading, Mode turbo, Consommation modérée
  • Puce graphique vraiment peu performante
  • La relève des Core 2 Duo est là et Intel fait mouche une fois de plus. Ce processeur est à la fois rapide et peu énergivore. Reste que si vous n'avez pas besoin de la partie graphique, mieux vaut opter pour un modèle à quatre cœurs....
