Intel Directed I/O Virtualization Technology (VT-d)

Intel Directed I/O Virtualization Technology (VT-d) continues the existing support for virtualization solutions for IA-32 (VT-x) and Itanium processor systems (VT-i) and expands it with new support for I/O device virtualization. Intel VT-d can help users improve the security and reliability of systems as well as the performance of I/O devices in virtualized environments.

Intel Virtualization Technology (VT-x)

With Intel Virtualization Technology (VT-x), a hardware platform can be utilized as multiple "virtual" platforms. It offers improved manageability through reduced downtime and maintains productivity by shifting computing tasks into separate partitions.

Intel 64

In conjunction with the appropriate software, the Intel 64 architecture enables 64-bit processing on servers, workstations, PCs, and mobile platforms. Intel 64 enhances performance as the system can address more than 4 GB of virtual and physical memory due to this processor extension.

Intel Clear Video HD Technology

Intel Clear Video HD Technology, like its predecessor Intel Clear Video Technology, is a suite of image decoding and image processing technologies in integrated processor graphics that enhances video playback and provides better, sharper images as well as more natural, lifelike, and vibrant colors. Intel Clear Video HD Technology offers quality improvements for videos, resulting in richer colors and more realistic skin tones.
