About the Intel Core i5-13450HX CPU

The Intel Core i5-13450HX is a 10-core (16-thread) processor built for the mobile CPU market. It launched in Q1 2023 with a suggested retail price of $326. It is part of Intel's Core i5 lineup, which is based on the Raptor Lake-HX microarchitecture. The i5-13450HX is compatible with Intel BGA 1964 motherboards and is fabricated on Intel's 10 nm manufacturing process. It features the UHD Graphics 710 integrated graphics solution.

Memory and Cache

The Core i5-13450HX supports DDR4-3200, DDR5-4800 memory and features a dual-channel memory controller, allowing it to utilize 2 memory modules simultaneously. In terms of cache, the Core i5-13450HX 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 2 MB, is larger but slower than the L1. Its L3 cache, a shared resource among the CPU's cores, has a capacity of 20 MB.

Cores and Clock Speeds

The Core i5-13450HX features 10 total cores which can process 16 threads simultaneously. The multi-threading capability allows the CPU to execute multiple computational tasks in parallel. The 10 cores consist of 6 P-Cores and 4 E-Cores. P-Cores are designed for high-performance tasks and E-Cores are intended for efficiency and lighter tasks. The base clock speed of the CPU is 2.4 GHz, and it can boost up to 4.6 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 Core i5-13450HX includes an integrated graphics solution called UHD Graphics 710. 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 i5-13450HX has the 59th best 3DMark 11 Performance Physics score among the 721 benchmarked CPUs in our database. It achieves 59.43% of the performance of the best benchmarked CPU, the AMD Ryzen 9 7950X3D. Its 21,982 score and $326 launch price (MSRP) gives it a performance per dollar of 67.43. This is the 25th best in value for the 3DMark 11 Perf. Physics benchmark.

About the Intel Core i3-N300 CPU

The Intel Core i3-N300 is a 8-core (8-thread) processor built for the mobile CPU market. It launched in Q1 2023 with a suggested retail price of $309. It is part of Intel's Core i3 lineup, which is based on the Alder Lake-N microarchitecture. The i3-N300 is compatible with Intel BGA 1264 motherboards and is fabricated on Intel's 10 nm manufacturing process. It features the UHD Graphics 770 integrated graphics solution.

Memory and Cache

The Core i3-N300 supports DDR4-3200, DDR5 memory and features a single-channel memory controller, allowing it to utilize 1 memory modules simultaneously. In terms of cache, the Core i3-N300 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 2 MB, is larger but slower than the L1. Its L3 cache, a shared resource among the CPU's cores, has a capacity of 6 MB.

Cores and Clock Speeds

The Core i3-N300 features 8 total cores which can process 8 threads simultaneously. The multi-threading capability allows the CPU to execute multiple computational tasks in parallel. The base clock speed of the CPU is 100.0 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 i3-N300 includes an integrated graphics solution called UHD Graphics 770. 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 i3-N300 has the 408th best 3DMark 11 Performance Physics score among the 721 benchmarked CPUs in our database. It achieves 13.47% of the performance of the best benchmarked CPU, the AMD Ryzen 9 7950X3D. Its 4,983 score and $309 launch price (MSRP) gives it a performance per dollar of 16.13.
