Hello,
Does the Celeron N2930 support any "Instruction Set Extensions"? Most notably SSE2 which is required to run Windows 8 and Skype. According to comparison chart at:
http://ark.intel.com/compare/81073,76609,76611 ARK | Compare Intel® Products
it does not have such support (as opposed to i3 and i5 it's compared to).
Celeron N2930 Datasheet:
http://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/intelligent-systems/bay-trail/pentium-n3520-j2850-celeron-n2920-n2820-n2815-n2806-j1850-j1750-datasheet.html Intel® Pentium® and Celeron® Processor N- and J- Series: Datasheet
also does not mention a single word about such support (whereas datasheet for other Intel processors: http://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/processors/core/CoreTechnicalResources.html Intel® Core™ Processors Technical Resources states clearly support)
I can't believe that processor released in Q1'14 does not have such support. Is it only documentation error?
Regards,
Michal

Hi Michal, I was able to confirm the support for SSE 4.1 and 4.2.
Please check the section 10.1, page 108 of the datasheet you linked above.

Hi joe_intel.
Thank you for pointing this out. It's clear now that N2930 supports the SSE. I guess it would also be a good idea to update the specs on http://ark.intel.com/ ARK | Your Source for Intel® Product Information. Topic can be closed now.
Thanks,
Michal
