Benchmarks & Specs

Last updated:
The Intel Core i3-3245 is a processor based on the proven Ivy Bridge S architecture. It was manufactured using the advanced 22-nanometer process. This resulted in good energy efficiency for its time. One of its notable features is the integrated graphics unit. The Intel HD Graphics 4000 enabled smooth playback of high-resolution videos at the time.

It was also quite suitable for occasional, less demanding games. This saved users the need for a separate graphics card. With its 3 MB Level 3 cache, the processor contributed to noticeably smooth usage. We were often amazed at how well it handled everyday office tasks. For everyday tasks such as surfing or word processing, it still provides a reliable foundation today.

Its design aimed for a cost-effective and stable solution. The support for PCIe 2.0 was standard at the time and offered sufficient connectivity. The Intel Core i3-3245 remains an example of solid technology. It reliably fulfilled its purpose for many years.
