Intel has revealed new Pentium Silver processors and budget-friendly Intel Celeron chips.
As the first CPUs based on the firm’s ‘Gemini Lake’ architecture (following up on existing ‘Apollo Lake’ offerings) these are new cheap and power-efficient processors for desktop PCs and laptops.
On the desktop side, the chip maker has introduced the Intel Pentium Silver J5005 and Intel Celeron J4105 and J4005.
The Pentium Silver J5005 is a quad-core (four-thread) CPU with a clock speed of up to 2.8GHz, with Intel UHD Graphics 605 (integrated graphics) with a graphics clock speed of 800MHz.
Incidentally, Pentium Silver means that the chip is based on the Atom architecture, a lower-cost (and lower-power) alternative to the main Core series of Intel processors.
A few months ago Intel introduced Pentium Gold, which was based on the company’s last generation Kaby Lake offerings. In short, Silver processors aren’t as good as Gold in the performance stakes, but that’s reflecting in the savings and lower prices.
The Intel Celeron J4105 is also a quad-core (four-thread) processor with a clock speed of up to 2.5GHz, and Intel UHD Graphics 600 (with a graphics clock speed of 750MHz).
The Celeron J4005 brings up the rear as a dual-core (two-thread) CPU with a …read more
