  1.  Intel® Microarchitecture Codename Nehalem

    Intel's latest-generation microarchitecture, first exemplified as the Intel® Core™ i7 processor,represents the next step in faster, multi-core technology thatintelligently maximized performance to match your workload. Designedfrom the ground up to take advantage of 45nm Hi-k next generation Intel® Core™ microarchitecture,Intel® microarchitecture codename Nehalem, unleashes parallelprocessing performance enabled by an integrated memory controller andIntel® QuickPath Technology providing high-speed interconnects perindependent processing core.

    The next level of multi-core performance

    Intel® microarchitecture codename Nehalem, offers the latest in processor innovation, including:

    • Dynamic scalability, managed cores, threads, cache, interfaces, and power for energy-efficient performance on-demand.
    • Design and performance scalability for servers, workstations, notebooks, and desktops with support for 2-8+ cores and up to 16+ threads with Intel® Hyper-Threading Technology (Intel® HT Technology), and scalable cache sizes, system interconnects, and integrated memory controllers.
    • Intelligent performance on-demand with Intel® Turbo Boost Technologytaking advantage of the processor's power and thermal headroom. Thisenables increased performance of both multi-threaded andsingle-threaded workloads.
    • Increased performance on highly-threaded applicationswith Intel HT Technology, bringing high-performance applications intomainstream computing with 1-16+ threads optimized for new generation multi-core processor architecture.
    • Scalable shared memoryfeatures memory distributed to each processor with integrated memorycontrollers and Intel QuickPath Technology high-speed point-to-pointinterconnects to unleash the performance of future versions ofnext-generation Intel® multi-core processors.
    • Multi-level shared cache improves performance and efficiency by reducing latency to frequently used data

  2. Intel told us to use "Nehalem" instead of Gainestown. "While technically that might be their name, no one really calls them by that.  I think it would be better if you called them “Nehalem” – that’s more recognizable."

  3. Enabling Intel® Turbo Boost Technology (Intel® TBT) requires a PC with a processor with Intel TBT capability. Intel TBT performance varies depending on hardware, software and overall system configuration. Check with your PC manufacturer on whether your system delivers Intel TBT. For more information, see: www.intel.com/technology/turboboost.

    ± Intel® Virtualization Technology (Intel® VT), Intel® Trusted Execution Technology (Intel® TXT), and Intel® 64 architecture require a computer system with a processor, chipset, BIOS, enabling software and/or operating system, device drivers and applications designed for these features. Performance will vary depending on your configuration. Contact your vendor for more information. ° Enabling Execute Disable Bit functionality requires a PC with a processor with Execute Disable Bit capability and a supporting operating system. Check with your PC manufacturer on whether your system delivers Execute Disable Bit functionality.
    Φ 64-bit computing on Intel® architecture requires a computer system with a processor, chipset, BIOS, operating system, device drivers, and applications enabled for Intel® 64 architecture. Processors will not operate (including 32-bit operation) without an Intel 64 architecture-enabled BIOS. Performance will vary depending on your hardware and software configurations. Consult with your system vendor for more information.
