Overview

The Intel Core i5-750 is a desktop processor with 4 cores, released in 2009 at an MSRP of $196. It is part of the Core i5 lineup, using the 1st Gen platform, and fits the LGA1156 socket. Internally, it is built on the "Nehalem" architecture. The Core i5-750 has a base clock of 2.66 GHz and can boost up to 3.2 GHz depending on workload and thermal headroom. Intel manufactures the "Nehalem" silicon on a 45nm 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 i5-750 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, 256KB/core of L2, and 8MB of L3 cache.

Launch flagship of the LGA1156 i5 lineup. Widely considered one of the best value CPUs of 2009.
