Intel Core i7-2760QM Mobile Processor (Socket G2 / rPGA988B) – Extreme Quad-Core Sandy Bridge Performance

Are you looking for a significant performance leap for your laptop, or do you need a reliable replacement part for a mobile workstation? The mobile Intel Core i7-2760QM processor from the highly stable and valued Sandy Bridge generation represents the pinnacle of its class. It delivers the uncompromised power of **4 physical cores and 8 threads**, easily handling demanding computing tasks, virtualization, code compilation, video editing, and advanced multitasking.

Thanks to its high base clock speed of 2.40 GHz and intelligent Turbo Boost technology, the processor dynamically responds to heavy workloads, breathing new life into older portable computers and saving you the cost of purchasing a brand-new machine.

Key Features of the Intel Core i7-2760QM Processor

• 4 physical cores and 8 threads with Intel Hyper-Threading technology for top-tier parallel performance.
• Base clock of 2.40 GHz with Intel Turbo Boost 2.0, automatically overclocking the core up to 3.50 GHz under load.
• Generous 6 MB Intel Smart Cache for lightning-fast system responsiveness.
• Integrated Intel HD Graphics 3000 core for reliable Full HD video acceleration and everyday multimedia tasks.
• Designed for the widely adopted laptop Socket G2 (rPGA988B).

Uncompromised Multitasking with 8 Threads

The Intel Core i7-2760QM is a fully-fledged Quad-Core processor. Featuring Hyper-Threading technology, it handles up to 8 computing threads simultaneously. Combined with the massive 6MB cache, your laptop will run smoothly even with multiple demanding applications open at once – allowing you to compile code, keep dozens of browser tabs open, and render video in the background without stuttering.

Intel HD 3000 Integrated Graphics

The energy-efficient Intel HD Graphics 3000 chip integrated directly onto the processor die ensures smooth rendering of the Windows operating system, hardware acceleration in web browsers, and seamless high-definition video streaming (YouTube, Netflix). This integrated solution stands out for its high reliability and low idle power consumption.

Compatibility and Cooling Requirements

This processor is designed for laptops with motherboards featuring a **removable Socket G2 (rPGA988B)** and Intel 6-series chipsets (such as HM65, HM67, QM67). Because it is a powerful quad-core model, its thermal design power is **45 W** (standard dual-cores are 35 W). Therefore, it is critical to ensure that your laptop's cooling system is built to handle this thermal output.

It represents an ideal upgrade for high-performance and enterprise laptops, such as:

• Lenovo ThinkPad T520, W520, L520
• Dell Latitude E6520, E5520 / Precision M4600 / Inspiron 5110
• HP EliteBook 8560p, 8560w / HP ProBook 4530s, 4730s, 6560b
