Intel H series processors bring gaming to life even in the thinnest laptops
Intel’s 11th Gen H Series processors bring desktop calibre performance to laptops. Push the boundaries of your gaming, even on the thinnest machines. Intel calls it, “Desktop power for any desk” and they don’t coin that tagline for nothing. For years, desktops have been the benchmark when it comes to PC gaming performance; however, Intel-powered laptops have evolved to deliver comparable performance of bulky desktop, and play high resolution, maximum frame rate games anytime and anywhere. The H45 processor, the latest in the H Series, lets you get exactly that.

The advantages of the Intel H45 processor lie in its advanced architecture, with the 10 nm SuperFin manufacturing process, its Willow Cove design, and new Intel Iris Xe graphics. You get 8 core CPUs, higher clock speeds, and lower power consumption. Using Intel’s Turbo Boost Technology, the H45 processor ensures faster processing right when you need it the most.
Gone are the days when power and performance require a big and bulky desktop, or a heavy, clunky laptop. Truly, the H45 processor is designed with the most demanding PC gamers in mind, so gamers like you get nothing but great performance for your toughest gaming adventures.
Gaming brings us all together
Gaming is becoming one of the best ways for you to connect with people who have similar interests from across the globe. Outside of gameplay many gamers connect through social media platforms like Twitch and YouTube by streaming their gameplays. During the first quarter of this year alone, there were a total of 8.8 billion hours of gaming streamed online. Some of the gameplay is from eSports professionals, allowing you to learn new tricks, while others come from people just like you who want to share a great gaming experience they had, or show how great gaming is because of the new machines and PC components they added to their system.
Whether you’re gaming for fun or streaming your gameplay for your avid followers to watch, you need the most reliable gaming laptop that plays as hard as you do. With a new array of game releases for PC this year, like Psychonauts 2, Dying Light, Fifa 22, and many others, take the unparalleled gaming performance offered by Intel’s new H45 processors, or any of Intel’s new processors anywhere you want. Experience the excitement and speed of the most demanding game titles even on ultra-thin laptops.

Win amazing laptops during Intel Gamer Days Contest Rules and Regulations
Good Luck.
I have definitely gamed more this last year. I had stopped playing for a while, but with more downtime I have reignited that love for gaming!
I game more at night after my kids are in bed.
I love to connect wiith other players online in order to achieve a more cohesive and interactive game play. We usually talk about strategy but occasionally joke around about life as well.
I love the faster processing time and the lower power consumption. Not only will my gaming be a better faster experience, I will also be able to spend more time enjoying my game play!
1. I played more games over this past year because I’ve had more free time.
2. I game more in the afternoon.
3. I do not really connect with others.
I love how the new H45 handles multitasking for streamers and creators. I enjoy streaming while I play and anything in the hardware that makes multitasking better will improve the quality of the stream.
1. My older computer can’t handle+stream the games I’d like to play
2. I played games all throughout the day since I’ve shifted to more mobile gaming.
3. I connect with other gamers online when I’m streaming and I enjoy talking about tournaments and competition strategy.
I love how the new H45 handles multitasking for streamers and creators.
The H45 processors are probably much better for gaming, to take the GPU load off and get some more boost on the clock speed.
1) Played more in past year then previous…
2) mostly afternoon or evening
3) play a little online, but not much communication with others online
1. I’d say I did game a bit more this year compared to previous years.
2. I game more at night.
3. I mostly play solo games or play with friends, so I don’t connect with other gamers that much
My favourite feature of the new Intel H45 processor has to be the new Xe graphics.
It would help make gaming better for me on the go as it surely will be powerful enough for the games I intend to play while also making it less heavy than most gaming laptops and giving it a better battery life than with a discrete graphics card.
My favourite feature of the Intel H45 processor is its new Intel Iris Xe graphics, which will make gaming so much more fun because the details will look more clear and vibrant
More frequently.
In the morning and in the evening.
No, not really. Mostly single player games and don’t chat about them online.
Thank you!
My most wanted feaature of Intel H45 processor is just how crazy fast it will be, what a monster! Will totally optimize my gaming!
1. I’ve been gaming waaaaay more over the last year.
2. Night.
3. Loner
My favorite new feature is 8-cores for higher performance
The new Intel Iris Xe graphics should be a boost for gaming.
Well my laptop that i used to game on broke last summer so since then i’ve been playing on console, Literally anything would make gaming better for me lol..
1. I’ve played games more to compensate for the time that i used to spend going out.
2.Definitely spent more time gaming during the evening/night.
3. No particular topics, I don’t join parties often because console party’s on Rainbow six siege tend to be toxic. When i do join a party i only join my IRL friends parties and we mainly just crack jokes.

3. I did not connect with other gamers online.

Thanks for the generous contest & chance to win!!
1. I played a lot more this year.
2. I played almost entirely late at night.
3. I connected with other gamers while playing Rocket League, and I enjoyed talking about how bad I am at Rocket League
I love that Intel’s Turbo Boost Technology means I’ll be able to power through any gaming situation, no matter how intense processing load.
1. I have been gaming less, due to a new addition to our family =)
2. I usually game in the evening when my wife and I have some quiet time.
3. I made a good friend playing Destiny 2 over the years, who turned into a good offline friend as well. We mainly talk about how hard it is to find a GPU to upgrade our PC.
1. I gamed less frequently over the last year, but not because I lost interest. The new releases are getting a lot more demanding on hardware and I just didn’t have the budget to keep up, honestly. A shame, really.
2. Truthfully, the afternoon is most optimal, right after you’re done everything for the day. It’s hard to let a good story (and good times) go when it’s time for bed.
3. I left my online days when I graduated from the early days of Club Penguin, so I couldn’t tell you. I’m more open to online experiences with pre-established friends, even though that has yet to happen.
My fave feature of the new processor will definitely the lack of stuttering it’ll provide. One of the main reasons why I game is because I have an incredibly vivid imagination and love to be immersed in new worlds (hence it’s much safer to game than to do any other “hallucinatory” activity, if you catch my drift). Stuttering is the surefire way to break immersion and ruin the experience (that many devs have spent years trying to perfect, might I add).
1. I game lots more this past year
2. Afternoon and night
3. Loner
My fave feature is lower power consumption
Yes I played more this year .

my favourite feature is the 4k resolution at 120 fps, it seems kinda crazy
I play at any time of the day, i play more recently than i did before and i like to play on my own and sometimes invite other gamers to one or two game of apex or warzone
My favorite feature about the h45 is its great efficiency and power
1. Definitely played more this year
2. Gamed more at night
3. No not really
up to 4K resolution @ 120FPS (1080p @ 240FPS). Higher resolution and a higher frame rate makes for better graphics and everything smoother overall improves the gaming experience.
1. I game more over the last year.
2. Night.
3. Not really an online player.
Overclocking beyond 5Ghz. More Ghz the better.
Low power consumption is fave benefit of h45
I like the following about the new Intel processors:
No lags or freezes
1. I played more games over the last year compared to previous years
2. I always game more in the evenings and at night.
3. I don’t connect directly to other gamers online, but do enjoy talking about new editions of my favorite games IRL.
Love the higher resolution – saves my eyes from getting strained after gaming for hours!
My favorite feature of the new Intel H45 processor is lower power consumption. It will help make gaming better for me because I can play longer without having to recharge.
In a different comment below this article, tell us three (3) things about your own recent gaming experience (your comment must include all three components for this comment to qualify as a contest entry):
1. This year I have unfortunately played less games than usual. As I have been travelling in New Zealand I needed to pack light, so have sacrificed my gaming equipment however I return back to Canada in September. If the person on the other side of this comment is a benevolent God, I will hopefully win this contest and get back into high tier gaming!
2. Evening mostly. My flatmates/hostel mates and I would use the evenings to be social and game with eachother after work.
3. I miss my friends back home dearly however with the ability to game and chat online, it makes us feel much closer! When I return home to Canada I’ll be gaming/chatting with my new New Zealand fam too. *Who’s Best Buy? My Best Buy!*
Comment one:
With the H45 Processor I’m excited to be able to experience the nearly desktop benchmark performance but remain mobile! Low power consumption is a bonus too!
With the new processor my favourite feature will be being able to play at 4k resolution at 120 FPS! This will give me a high resolution for a crisp image and a high FPS rate for a clean gaming experience that will improve my gaming performance and gameplay greatly!
1. Less frequently
2. Play at night
3. Do not connect with other gamers online
Lower power consumption allowing me to play longer without recharging
This past year and more the amount of gaming I have done hasn’t changed much. I’ve still set aside time for winding down.
Most of my gaming takes place in the evening with a little at night when I get the chance! Having a new little one has kept me busy during the mornings and days.
I often visit various websites to discuss new games and upcoming releases with fellow gamers. I also love discussing new tech coming out and have been very impressed with Intel’s new processors this past couple years.
I played games less frequently over this past year compared to previous years.
I gamed more at night over the past year.
I don’t connect with other gamers online.
The longer battery life from the low consumption h45 means I will be able to get more done while away from an outlet!
I like the faster speed of the Intel H45 because my current processor is slow and this will run newer games better.
Lower power consumption means battery charge will last longer.
I had twins last September. It’s been super tough to find any time for anything. But when I do I’d love that the battery last longer which means less worries!
Definitely gaming in the evening when the twins are sleeping even then the time is cut short.
But I will have time to connect with others when GRANDMA comes over! Which is awesome! Yeaha! Lol
