About the Intel Core i5-11400T CPU

The Intel Core i5-11400T is an end-of-life 6-core (12-thread) processor built for the desktop CPU market. It launched in Q1 2021 with a suggested retail price of $182. It is part of Intel's Core i5 lineup, which is based on the Rocket Lake-S microarchitecture. The i5-11400T is compatible with Intel Socket 1200 motherboards and is fabricated on Intel's 14 nm manufacturing process. It features the UHD Graphics 730 integrated graphics solution.

Memory and Cache

The Core i5-11400T supports DDR4 memory and features a dual-channel memory controller, allowing it to utilize 2 memory modules simultaneously. In terms of cache, the Core i5-11400T has multiple levels of cache. Its L1 cache, which is the smallest and fastest, is 80 KB in size, providing rapid access to crucial instructions. Its L2 cache, at 512 KB, is larger but slower than the L1. Its L3 cache, a shared resource among the CPU's cores, has a capacity of 12 MB.

Cores and Clock Speeds

The Core i5-11400T features 6 total cores which can process 12 threads simultaneously. The multi-threading capability allows the CPU to execute multiple computational tasks in parallel. The base clock speed of the CPU is 1300.0 MHz, and it can boost up to 3.7 GHz 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 Core i5-11400T includes an integrated graphics solution called UHD Graphics 730. 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 & Value

The Core i5-11400T has the 336th best 3DMark 11 Performance Physics score among the 721 benchmarked CPUs in our database. It achieves 19.79% of the performance of the best benchmarked CPU, the AMD Ryzen 9 7950X3D. Its 7,319 score and $182 launch price (MSRP) gives it a performance per dollar of 40.21. This is the 76th best in value for the 3DMark 11 Perf. Physics benchmark.

About the AMD Ryzen 3 1200 CPU

The AMD Ryzen 3 1200 is a 4-core (4-thread) processor built for the desktop CPU market. It launched in Q3 2017 with a suggested retail price of $109. It is part of AMD's Ryzen 3 lineup, which is based on the Zen microarchitecture. The 1200 is compatible with AMD Socket AM4 motherboards and is fabricated on GlobalFoundries's 14 nm manufacturing process.

Memory and Cache

The Ryzen 3 1200 supports DDR4 memory and features a dual-channel memory controller, allowing it to utilize 2 memory modules simultaneously. In terms of cache, the Ryzen 3 1200 has multiple levels of cache. Its L1 cache, which is the smallest and fastest, is 96 KB in size, providing rapid access to crucial instructions. Its L2 cache, at 512 KB, is larger but slower than the L1. Its L3 cache, a shared resource among the CPU's cores, has a capacity of 8 MB.

Cores and Clock Speeds

The Ryzen 3 1200 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 3.1 GHz, and it can boost up to 3.4 GHz under heavy workloads. Higher clock speeds result in better performance for the same microarchitecture. The multiplier is unlocked, enabling overclocking for those seeking to push the CPU's performance further.

Integrated Graphics

The Ryzen 3 1200 does not include an integrated graphics solution. A dedicated graphics card will be required if you require a monitor with your computer.

Benchmark Performance & Value

The Ryzen 3 1200 has the 384th best 3DMark 11 Performance Physics score among the 721 benchmarked CPUs in our database. It achieves 16.15% of the performance of the best benchmarked CPU, the AMD Ryzen 9 7950X3D. Its 5,975 score and $109 launch price (MSRP) gives it a performance per dollar of 54.82. This is the 36th best in value for the 3DMark 11 Perf. Physics benchmark.
