M430

We put the 2.26 GHz Intel 430M to the test against the 2.5 GHz 2450M to find out which you should buy. The Intel Core i5-430M was a mobile processor with 2 cores, launched in January 2010. It is part of the Core i5 lineup, using the Arrandale architecture with Socket G1. Thanks to Intel Hyper-Threading the core-count is effectively doubled, to 4 threads. Core i5-430M has 3MB of L3 cache and operates at 2.267 GHz by default, but can boost up to 2.
