Intel · Core i3 · 2013 · LGA1155
The Intel Core i3-3245 is a desktop processor with 2 cores, released in 2013. It is part of the Core i3 lineup, using the 3rd Gen platform, and fits the LGA1155 socket. Internally, it is built on the "Ivy Bridge" architecture. Thanks to Intel Hyper-Threading, each core can handle two instruction streams simultaneously, yielding a total of 4 threads for improved parallelism. It operates at a fixed 3.4 GHz. Intel manufactures the "Ivy Bridge" silicon on a 22nm process node. Its multiplier is locked, so any overclocking has to come from raising the base clock rather than the multiplier. This processor supports DDR3 memory. With a TDP of 55W, the Core i3-3245 is an efficient chip suitable for modest cooling solutions. Integrated graphics are provided by the HD 4000 solution, so a discrete GPU is not required for display output. The cache hierarchy consists of 32KB/core of L1, 0.5MB of L2, and 3MB of L3 cache.
Standard locked-multiplier part.
