The Intel Core i3-2100 was a desktop processor with 2 cores, launched in February 2011, at an MSRP of $117. It is part of the Core i3 lineup, using the Sandy Bridge architecture with Socket 1155. Thanks to Intel Hyper-Threading the core-count is effectively doubled, to 4 threads. Core i3-2100 has 3 MB of L3 cache and operates at 3.1 GHz. Intel is making the Core i3-2100 on a 32 nm production node using 504 million transistors. The multiplier is locked on Core i3-2100, which limits its overclocking potential.
With a TDP of 65 W, the Core i3-2100 consumes typical power levels for a modern PC. Intel's processor supports DDR3 memory with a dual-channel interface. The highest officially supported memory speed is 1333 MT/s, but with overclocking (and the right memory modules) you can go even higher. For communication with other components in the system, Core i3-2100 uses a PCI-Express Gen 2 connection. This processor features the Intel HD 2000 integrated graphics solution. Inside the box you will not only find the processor, but also a E97379-001 cooler.
Hardware virtualization is available on the Core i3-2100, which greatly improves virtual machine performance.
