14 DAY TRIAL // Intel keeps on expanding its lineup of Sandy Bridge processors with new models on a regular basis, and the latest such chips to arrive are the Core i3-2350M and i3-2367M mobile CPUs, targeting mainstream and ultra-low power notebooks.
The two chips were quietly added by Intel to its ARK database where they were spotted by the CPU-World website.
The first one of these processors, the Core i3-2350M, is quite an old acquaintance of ours as we first reported about this CPU in May of this year when we noticed that several notebook makers, like Fujitsu, HP and Lenovo, listed it in some of their laptops.
Intel hasn't modified the specs of this CPU since our first encounter, and this still includes two processing cores, that are clocked at 2.3GHz, 3MB of Level 3 cache memory and features Intel's Hyper-Threading technology.
The processor integrated HD 3000 graphics core is clocked at 650 MHz and can go all the way up to 1.15 GHz when maximum performance is needed.
The second mobile Sandy Bridge processor to be released by Intel, the Core i3-2367M, is a new CPU and is designed to be used in ultra-thin and light notebooks hence its 17W TDP and BGA form factor.
Just like its older brother, the i3-2367M also includes two processing cores with Hyper-Threading support, but these are now clocked at just 1.4GHz in order to fit inside the low power envelope.
The integrated graphics frequency has also been reduced to just 350MHz. This can however ramp up to 1GHz when the need arises.
Intel hasn't revealed the pricing of any of these two mobile processors, which was to be expected as they will only be sold to OEMs and ODMs. The first notebook models to feature the Core i3-2350M and i3-2367M CPUs should arrive soon.
