Increase the Reach of Your High-Performance Games:
Introducing Sandy Bridge

The 2nd Generation of Intel Core Processors is here. Codenamed "Sandy
Bridge", this new processor family incorporates Intel HD Graphics
capabilities directly onto the die, resulting in increased
performance, high visual fidelity, and reduced power consumption.
Additional innovations include AVX to accelerate 3D graphics and
imaging applications, updated Turbo Boost technology and increased
fixed-function logic and redesigned shaders on the GPU, significantly
increasing graphics performance without using extra hardware.

A sizeable number of your target customers will be on the lookout for
Sandy Bridge-ready games, as the first products released will be
mainstream desktops and laptops. Find out how to take advantage of
this new architecture.
