About the Intel Atom x7-E3950 CPU

The Intel Atom x7-E3950 is a 4-core (4-thread) processor built for the embedded CPU market. It launched in Q3 2014. It is part of Intel's Atom x7 lineup, which is based on the Apollo Lake microarchitecture. The x7-E3950 is compatible with Intel BGA 1296 motherboards and is fabricated on Intel's 14 nm manufacturing process. It features the HD Graphics 505 integrated graphics solution.

Memory and Cache

The Atom x7-E3950 supports DDR3 memory and features a dual-channel memory controller, allowing it to utilize 2 memory modules simultaneously. In terms of cache, the Atom x7-E3950 has multiple levels of cache. Its L1 cache, which is the smallest and fastest, is 56 KB in size, providing rapid access to crucial instructions. Its L2 cache, at 2 MB, is larger but slower than the L1.

Cores and Clock Speeds

The Atom x7-E3950 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 2000.0 MHz under heavy workloads. Higher clock speeds result in better performance for the same microarchitecture. The multiplier is locked, making it incapable of overclocking for pushing performance further.

Integrated Graphics

The Atom x7-E3950 includes an integrated graphics solution called HD Graphics 505. 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 Atom x7-E3950 has the 635th best 3DMark 11 Performance Physics score among the 721 benchmarked CPUs in our database. It achieves 4.85% of the performance of the best benchmarked CPU, the AMD Ryzen 9 7950X3D.

About the Intel Atom x5-E8000 CPU

The Intel Atom x5-E8000 is a 4-core (4-thread) processor built for the embedded CPU market. The x5-E8000 is compatible with FCBGA1170 motherboards and is fabricated on a 14 nm manufacturing process.

Memory and Cache

In terms of cache, the Atom x5-E8000 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-E8000 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 1040.0 MHz, and it can boost up to 2000.0 MHz under heavy workloads. Higher clock speeds result in better performance for the same microarchitecture.

Integrated Graphics

The Atom x5-E8000 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-E8000 has the 669th best 3DMark 11 Performance Physics score among the 721 benchmarked CPUs in our database. It achieves 4.04% of the performance of the best benchmarked CPU, the AMD Ryzen 9 7950X3D.
