Intel · Core i5 · 2012 · LGA1155
The Intel Core i5-2450P is a desktop processor with 4 cores, released in 2012. It is part of the Core i5 lineup, using the 2nd Gen platform, and fits the LGA1155 socket. Internally, it is built on the "Sandy Bridge" architecture. The Core i5-2450P has a base clock of 3.2 GHz and can boost up to 3.5 GHz depending on workload and thermal headroom. Intel manufactures the "Sandy Bridge" silicon on a 32nm 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 95W, the Core i5-2450P sits in a typical power envelope for a modern desktop CPU. This processor has no integrated graphics — a discrete GPU is required. The cache hierarchy consists of 32KB/core of L1, 1MB of L2, and 6MB of L3 cache.
