The overall GPU performance is still low-end, so modern games can, if at all, only be played smoothly with low settings. Compared to the HD Graphics 4600 (Haswell, 20 EUs), the performance is increased by around 25 percent. Although for each board we provide PCB and BIOS revisions that support the processor, this page is updated less frequently than individual motherboard support pages, therefore we encourage you to visit those page as they may contain more up-to-date data, as.
#Intel core i5 2400 ( upgrade
Graphics are handled by the integrated Intel HD Graphics 530 with 24 EUs (Execution Units), which is clocked at 350 - 1050 MHz. Here are some examples of searches: i5-2400, CM8062300834106, Intel Core i5 3.1GHz, Sandy Bridge Socket 1155 95 Watt, Sandy Bridge 4 cores 4 threads, 0. The list of motherboards, compatible with the Intel Core i5-2400 microprocessor, is based on CPU upgrade information from our database. Therefore, it should be sufficient even for demanding tasks. The performance is similar to the old Core i5-3570K of the Sandy Bridge generation. However, the changes are small for a "Tock" – a new micro architecture – in general, so the per-MHz performance is only between 5-10 % (compared to Haswell) or less than 5 % higher (compared to Broadwell), respectively. Several improvements of the Skylake architecture include bigger Out-to-Order-Buffer, optimizations for pre-fetching as well as bigger gains by Hyperthreading. Intel uses Skylake to replace both Broadwell as well as Haswell and therefore uses one core design for all TDP classes between 4.5-45 Watts. The CPU, which is manufactured in a 14 nm process, runs at 3.2 - 3.6 GHz and does not support Hyperthreading (only 4 threads simultaneously).
The Intel Core i5-6500 is a mid-range quad-core desktop processor based on the Skylake architecture, which was announced in August 2015.
