Intel Core i7-3537U

2C/4T · 3.1 GHz · 17 W

The Core i7-3537U is a 3rd Generation (Ivy Bridge) dual-core ultra-low-voltage processor aimed at thin, battery-focused ultrabooks and convertibles from the 2012-2013 era. As a later refresh within the Ivy Bridge U-series lineup, it targets the same power envelope as earlier parts while offering somewhat higher clock headroom under Intel Turbo Boost. Integrated HD Graphics 4000 covers everyday display and light media tasks, fitting a market niche defined by portability and battery life over raw performance.
