The Intel Core i7-4765T was a desktop processor with 4 cores, launched in June 2013, at an MSRP of $303. It is part of the Core i7 lineup, using the Haswell architecture with Socket 1150. Thanks to Intel Hyper-Threading the core-count is effectively doubled, to 8 threads. Core i7-4765T has 8 MB of L3 cache and operates at 2000 MHz by default, but can boost up to 3 GHz, depending on the workload. Intel is making the Core i7-4765T on a 22 nm production node using 1,400 million transistors. The multiplier is locked on Core i7-4765T, which limits its overclocking potential.
With a TDP of 35 W, the Core i7-4765T consumes only little energy. Intel's processor supports DDR3 memory with a dual-channel interface. The highest officially supported memory speed is 1600 MT/s, but with overclocking (and the right memory modules) you can go even higher. For communication with other components in the computer, Core i7-4765T uses a PCI-Express Gen 3 connection. This processor features the Intel HD 4600 integrated graphics solution.
Hardware virtualization is available on the Core i7-4765T, which greatly improves virtual machine performance. Additionally, IOMMU virtualization (PCI passthrough) is supported, so that guest virtual machines may directly use host hardware. Programs using Advanced Vector Extensions (AVX) can run on this processor, boosting performance for calculation-heavy applications. Besides AVX, Intel is including the newer AVX2 standard, too, but not AVX-512.
