The Intel Celeron G550T was a desktop processor with 2 cores, launched in September 2011. It is part of the Celeron lineup, using the Sandy Bridge architecture with Socket 1155. Celeron G550T has 2 MB of L3 cache and operates at 2.2 GHz. Intel is making the Celeron G550T on a 32 nm production node using 504 million transistors. The multiplier is locked on Celeron G550T, which limits its overclocking potential. With a TDP of 35 W, the Celeron G550T consumes only little energy. Intel's processor supports DDR3 memory with a dual-channel interface. For communication with other components in the system, Celeron G550T uses a PCI-Express Gen 3 connection. This processor features the Intel HD (Sandy Bridge) integrated graphics solution. Hardware virtualization is available on the Celeron G550T, which greatly improves virtual machine performance.
