Intel Mobile Celeron 787 - AV8062701079501 / AV8062701345400

Intel Mobile Celeron 787 is a ultra-low voltage microprocessor for entry-level thin-and-light notebooks. This CPU was introduced in July 2011 with the price, close to $100, and it's positioned as a replacement for Penryn-based Celeron 763.

Intel Celeron 787 is built on Sandy Bridge microarchitecture, which integrates not only CPU core, but also the following components:

• Graphics Processing Unit (GPU), which is powerful enough to handle HD video content. The GPU doesn't support 3D Video or 3D graphics acceleration, and it also lacks Quick Sync and Clear Video HD video processing technologies.
• Memory controller supports two DDR3 memory channels with data rates up to 1333 MHz.
• Direct Media Interface (DMI) 2.0 is used is to communicate with South Bridge chip and all peripheral devices. The DMI 2.0 is capable to deliver twice as much bandwidth as the DMI in the previous generation of Westmere models.
• PCI Express Interface.

Intel 787 has one CPU core, and uses three-level cache architecture. The processor has 64 KB level 1, 256 KB level 2, and 1 MB level 3 caches. The L3 cache is also shared with the integrated GPU. The Celeron 787 is clocked at 1.3 GHz, and, lacking Hyper-Threading technology, can execute only one thread at once. The microprocessor does include basic technologies, like Execute Disable bit and Virtualization, and basic extensions to instruction set, such as Intel 64. More advanced technologies and extensions, including AVX and Turbo Boost, are not supported by this CPU. Low-power features on this Mobile Celeron are identical to other Sandy Brdge processors. These features are comprised of Enhanced SpeedStep technology, which reduces power consumption of active cores by reducing their operating frequency and voltage, and a few low-power states, used when one or both cores are idle. This model has 17 Watt maximum average power consumption.

Like all other ultra-low voltage chips, Intel Celeron 787 is produced in a Ball Grid Array (BGA) package. CPUs in this package are usually soldered on a motherboard, and cannot be easily replaced or upgraded.
