The Intel Core i5-750s was a desktop processor with 4 cores, launched in January 2010. It is part of the Core i5 lineup, using the Lynnfield architecture with Socket 1156. Core i5-750s has 8 MB of L3 cache and operates at 2.4 GHz by default, but can boost up to 3.2 GHz, depending on the workload. Intel is building the Core i5-750s on a 45 nm production process using 774 million transistors. The multiplier is locked on Core i5-750s, which limits its overclocking capabilities.
With a TDP of 82 W, the Core i5-750s consumes a good deal of power, so decent cooling is needed. Intel's processor supports DDR3 memory with a dual-channel interface. For communication with other components in the system, Core i5-750s uses a PCI-Express Gen 2 connection. This processor does not have integrated graphics, you will need a separate graphics card.
Hardware virtualization is available on the Core i5-750s, which greatly improves virtual machine performance. Additionally, IOMMU virtualization (PCI passthrough) is supported, so that guest virtual machines may directly use host hardware.
