About the AMD Athlon Silver 3050e CPU

The AMD Athlon Silver 3050e is a 2-core (4-thread) processor built for the mobile CPU market. The Athlon Silver 3050e is fabricated on a 14 nm manufacturing process. It features the AMD Radeon Graphics integrated graphics solution.

Memory and Cache

In terms of cache, the Athlon Silver 3050e has multiple levels of cache. Its L1 cache, which is the smallest and fastest, is 192 KB in size, providing rapid access to crucial instructions. Its L2 cache, at 1 MB, is larger but slower than the L1. Its L3 cache, a shared resource among the CPU's cores, has a capacity of 4 MB.

Cores and Clock Speeds

The Athlon Silver 3050e features 2 total cores which can process 4 threads simultaneously. The multi-threading capability allows the CPU to execute multiple computational tasks in parallel. The base clock speed of the CPU is 1400.0 MHz, and it can boost up to 2800.0 MHz under heavy workloads. Higher clock speeds result in better performance for the same microarchitecture.

Integrated Graphics

The Athlon Silver 3050e includes an integrated graphics solution called AMD Radeon Graphics. This graphics processor is directly integrated into the CPU and is not as powerful as a dedicated graphics card. While integrated graphics can handle basic tasks like web browsing and office applications, it is not suitable for more demanding activities such as gaming or video editing, where a dedicated graphics card offers superior performance.

Benchmark Performance

The Athlon Silver 3050e has the 542nd best 3DMark 11 Performance Physics score among the 721 benchmarked CPUs in our database. It achieves 7.36% of the performance of the best benchmarked CPU, the AMD Ryzen 9 7950X3D.

About the Intel Pentium N3520 CPU

The Intel Pentium N3520 is a 4-core (4-thread) processor built for the mobile CPU market. The N3520 is compatible with FCBGA1170 motherboards and is fabricated on a 22 nm manufacturing process. It features the Intel HD Graphics for Intel Atom Processor Z3700 Series integrated graphics solution.

Memory and Cache

In terms of cache, the Pentium N3520 has multiple levels of cache. Its L1 cache, which is the smallest and fastest, is 224 KB in size, providing rapid access to crucial instructions. Its L2 cache, at 2 MB, is larger but slower than the L1. Its L3 cache, a shared resource among the CPU's cores, has a capacity of 0 MB.

Cores and Clock Speeds

The Pentium N3520 features 4 total cores which can process 4 threads simultaneously. The multi-threading capability allows the CPU to execute multiple computational tasks in parallel. The base clock speed of the CPU is 2167.0 MHz, and it can boost up to 2420.0 MHz under heavy workloads. Higher clock speeds result in better performance for the same microarchitecture.
