The drivers support HD graphics on Intel Core i3, Core i5, Core i7, various Pentium and Celeron processors. This is the recommended driver for the early access release of the brand-new Intel. In the link you provided, Intel claims the following: 'Windows. 8 drivers for first generation Intel® Core™ Processors, Intel® Pentium® Processors, and Intel® Celeron® Processors (formerly codenamed Arrandale and Clarkdale) with Intel® HD Graphics support legacy Windows Display Driver Model (WDDM) 1.1 and are included in the Windows 8 installation build and on Windows Update.

Core i3 500 & Core i5 600 processors (Clarkdale)

Intel core i3 530 2.93ghz graphics driver

Description Type OS Version Date; Intel® Graphics - Windows® 10 DCH Drivers. This download installs the Intel® Graphics Driver for 6th, 7th, 8th, 9th, 10th, 11th generation, Apollo Lake, Gemini Lake, Amber Lake, Whiskey Lake, Comet Lake, and Lakefield (27.20.100.9030). The list of motherboards, compatible with the Intel Core i3-530 microprocessor, is based on CPU upgrade information from our database. Although for each board we provide PCB and BIOS revisions that support the processor, this page is updated less frequently than individual motherboard support pages, therefore we encourage you to visit those page as they may contain more up-to-date data, as.

Intel recently made a shift to manufacturing its new 32nm die shrink of its Core microprocessor line, which the company refers to by the code name of 'Westmere'. Westmere is a die-shrink and IGP embedded processor series inside in the Nehalem family. In the Westmere range you'll find the 'Dales' chips -- 'Clarkdale' for the desktop, and 'Arrandale' for the mobile and notebook segment. Our processor tested today is a Clarkdale series processor.

Clarkdale based processors have two physical (execution) CPU cores each capable of two (hyper) threads (allowing four logical threads), and include integrated graphics and a memory controller. Like other Nehalem derivatives, Clarkdale will feature Intel Turbo Boost for the Core i5 600 series, whereas the Core i3 500 series will not have that feature.

The processors feature 4MB of Intel Smart Cache and an Integrated Memory Controller (IMC) that supports two-channels of DDR3 memory at officially supported speeds of up to 1333MHz. The cache memory consists of a 32KB L1 Data cache, 32KB Instruction cache and 256KB L2 cache per core. Then there's a nice L3 cache that is shared in-between the two CPU cores which is 4MB in total.

In this article we'll be focusing on the Core i3 range as we already reviewed the Core i5 600 processors processors. Within the Core i3 500 range a total of two models released; Core i3 540 and 530, clocking in at 2.93 and 3.06 GHz respectively. They are priced in etail right now at give or take 120 EUR (150 USD) and 99 EUR( 125 USD). Have a peek at the chart below.

Processor	Base Clock	Turbo (up-to)	Core / Threads	Cache	Memory	TDP	Price
Core i5 670	3.46 GHz	3.73 GHz	2/4	4MB	DDR3 1333	73W	$284
Core i5 661	3.33 GHz	3.60 GHz	2/4	4MB	DDR3 1333	87W	$196
Core i5 660	3.33 GHz	3.60 GHz	2/4	4MB	DDR3 1333	73W	$196
Core i5 650	3.20 GHz	3.46 GHz	2/4	4MB	DDR3 1333	73W	$176
Core i3 540	3.06 GHz	N/A	2/4	4MB	DDR3 1333	73W	$133
Core i3 530	2.93 GHz	N/A	2/4	4MB	DDR3 1333	73W	$113

All Clarkdale CPUs come with an IGP (Integrated Graphics Product) on die which means it has a small embedded GPU inside the processor. Though the processors will be manufactured at 32nm the totally weird thing is that the graphics core is produced at 45nm. That can only mean one thing, the Clarkdale processors will feature a multi-chip package, the CPU and GPU won't be merged into a single die but will have two chips merged in one package. I obtained a beautiful photo showing this:

To the left you can see a Clarkdale processor with two separate chips on one package -- connected like Siamese twins. The smaller chip to the left is the processor, the bigger one the IGP.

To the right the H55 PCH (motherboard chipset). From an architectural point of view this means that Clarkdale is a chip that's internally connected to a separate 45nm silicon that houses the GPU and dual-channel memory-controller - all in the same package.

The IGP inside the processor is called the Intel Graphics Media Accelerator HD, and is derived from existing Intel graphics products. But with some new improvements. Thanks to the IGP connectivity this can be good, bringing native support for HDMI (v1.3), DVI and DisplayPort.
