Intel Turbo Boost Technology Intel Turbo Boost Technology is a feature that dynamically increases the frequency of the processor when needed, taking advantage of thermal and power headroom to provide a burst of speed when you need it. This technology also helps to increase energy efficiency when the extra speed is not required, helping to save power and prolong battery life. Intel vPro Technology Intel vPro Technology is a set of security and manageability capabilities built into the processor. It is designed to address four critical areas of IT security: threat management, identity and web site access point protection, confidential data protection, and remote and local monitoring, remediation, and repair of PCs and workstations. With Intel vPro Technology, users can have peace of mind knowing their systems are protected and can be easily managed. Intel Virtualization Technology for Directed I/O (VT-d) Intel Virtualization Technology for Directed I/O (VT-d) builds upon the existing support for IA-32 (VT-x) and Itanium processor (VT-i) virtualization by adding new support for I/O-device virtualization. This technology helps to improve security and reliability of systems, as well as performance of I/O devices in virtualized environments. With Intel VT-d, users can experience smoother and more efficient virtualization processes.
