Intel Core i7-680UM
Benchmarks & Specs

The Intel Core i7-680UM was once an advanced mobile CPU. It was based on the efficient Arrandale architecture. Manufactured using the then highly advanced 32 nm process, this processor offered a good mix. Its considerable energy efficiency was particularly noteworthy. This made it ideal for compact and energy-saving notebooks.

It also contributed significantly to longer battery life. Another plus was the integrated Intel HD Graphics Ironlake (Arrandale). This graphics solution enabled smooth video playback. It was also ideally suited for everyday multimedia applications. This allowed manufacturers to dispense with an additional graphics card.

This helped to make the system slimmer. With 4 MB of L2 cache, the Core i7-680UM processed data quickly. The maximum memory bandwidth of 13 GB/s also supported this. We found that it offered very good performance for the time. It was a reliable component for demanding tasks. You could rely on its stability.

This processor was undoubtedly an important building block for the mobile world. It helped define what was possible in notebooks.
