Intel CoreIntel Core is a line of streamlined midrange consumer, workstation and enthusiast computer central processing units (CPUs) marketed by Intel Corporation. These processors displaced the existing mid- to high-end Pentium processors at the time of their introduction, moving the Pentium to the entry level. Identical or more capable versions of Core processors are also sold as Xeon processors for the server and workstation markets. The lineup of Core processors includes the Intel Core i3, Intel Core i5, Intel Core i7, and Intel Core i9, along with the X-series of Intel Core CPUs.
Dynamic frequency scalingDynamic frequency scaling (also known as CPU throttling) is a power management technique in computer architecture whereby the frequency of a microprocessor can be automatically adjusted "on the fly" depending on the actual needs, to conserve power and reduce the amount of heat generated by the chip. Dynamic frequency scaling helps preserve battery on mobile devices and decrease cooling cost and noise on quiet computing settings, or can be useful as a security measure for overheated systems (e.g.
Cell (processeur)Le Cell est un processeur conçu conjointement par IBM, Sony et Toshiba, révélé en . Il équipe notamment la console de jeu vidéo PlayStation 3 de Sony. Il est envisagé de produire également des ordinateurs à base de Cell chez IBM, et Toshiba (Qosmio F50/55 et G50/55).
PowerPCPowerPC, parfois abrégé PPC, est une gamme de microprocesseurs dérivée de l'architecture de processeur RISC POWER d'IBM, et développée conjointement par Apple, IBM et Freescale (anciennement Motorola Semiconducteurs). Le rétro-acronyme de PowerPC est Performance Optimization With Enhanced RISC Performance Computing. Depuis 2004, l'architecture est gérée par la fondation Power.org. À partir de 2019, la fondation Power est gérée par la Linux Foundation qui place le design et les jeux d’instructions sous licence Open Source.
