The Intel Core i5-2450M offers a smaller level 3 cache of 3 MB, 512 kB level 2 cache and 128 kB level 1 cache. This Intel Core i5-2450M dual-core processor has a base clock speed of 2.5 GHz but because of TurboBoost technology it can speed up to 2.8 GHz when 2 cores are active and 3.1 GHz when only 1 core is active, TurboBoost can be achieved when the thermal and electrical aspects are met. The clock speed of Intel Core i5-2450M is just higher by 100MHz compared to Core i5-2430M and 200MHz higher compared to Core i5-2410M.
The Sandy Bridge architecture is the successor of the Arrandale architecture and the most remarkable improvements of this architecture is the improved Turbo Boost 2.0 and the integration of the graphics and memory controller into the 32nm CPU core. This is the equivalent of the APU technology introduced by the AMD.
The Core i5-2450M has an integrated graphics controller called Intel HD Graphics 3000 which is faster than the old Intel HD Graphics in the older CPU architecture. Because the GPU is now integrated and shares the same level 3 cache with the CPU cores the Intel Core i5-2450M’s integrated GPU is clocked at 650 to 1300MHz because of the GPU TurboBoost. The Intel Core i5-2450M dual core processor has 35 Watt TDP; this includes the integrated GPU and memory controller.

my laptop has an intel core i5 and I'm not having any problem with it so far.
Very good information about Intel. It is one of the leading computer/laptops brand. Their processors are very efficient and useful for excessive use and work. It works for almost 48 hours nonstop.
