K - Unlocked, allows for easy overclocking. S - Low power - Usually a lower clock speed and/or binned at the factory to run the rated speed at a lower voltage, reducing power draw T - Lower power - Same as above, just, err....more P - Does not include any on-chip graphics, requiring you to use a third party video card (all other i5's have a GPU built in if you wish to use it - you don't have to, but it's available)

Can anyone define whatthe 'K', 'P', or 'S' in the Intel I5 processor m/n indicates? I am getting ready to buy 3 new Core I5 cpus. Should I be living on the Intel website now? Thanks, Duncan
