About the Intel Atom x5-Z8550 CPU

The Intel Atom x5-Z8550 is a 4-core (4-thread) processor built for the mobile CPU market. The x5-Z8550 is compatible with Socket 1380 BGA motherboards and is fabricated on a 14 nm manufacturing process.

Memory and Cache

In terms of cache, the Atom x5-Z8550 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 Atom x5-Z8550 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 1440.0 MHz, and it can boost up to 2400.0 MHz under heavy workloads. Higher clock speeds result in better performance for the same microarchitecture.

Integrated Graphics

The Atom x5-Z8550 does not include an integrated graphics solution. A dedicated graphics card will be required if you require a monitor with your computer.

Benchmark Performance

The Atom x5-Z8550 has the 643rd best 3DMark 11 Performance Physics score among the 720 benchmarked CPUs in our database. It achieves 4.70% of the performance of the best benchmarked CPU, the AMD Ryzen 9 7950X3D.

About the Intel Pentium N3700 CPU

The Intel Pentium N3700 is a 4-core (4-thread) processor built for the mobile CPU market. The N3700 is compatible with FCBGA1170 motherboards and is fabricated on a 14 nm manufacturing process. It features the Intel HD Graphics for Intel Celeron Processor N3000 Series integrated graphics solution.

Memory and Cache

In terms of cache, the Pentium N3700 has multiple levels of cache. Its L1 cache, which is the smallest and fastest, is 448 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 N3700 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 1600.0 MHz, and it can boost up to 2400.0 MHz under heavy workloads. Higher clock speeds result in better performance for the same microarchitecture.

Integrated Graphics

The Pentium N3700 includes an integrated graphics solution called Intel HD Graphics for Intel Celeron Processor N3000 Series. 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 Pentium N3700 has the 638th best 3DMark 11 Performance Physics score among the 720 benchmarked CPUs in our database. It achieves 4.78% of the performance of the best benchmarked CPU, the AMD Ryzen 9 7950X3D.
