About the Intel Core i5-4300Y CPU

The Intel Core i5-4300Y is a 2-core (4-thread) processor built for the mobile CPU market. The i5-4300Y is compatible with FCBGA1168 motherboards and is fabricated on a 22 nm manufacturing process. It features the Intel HD Graphics 4200 integrated graphics solution.

Memory and Cache

In terms of cache, the Core i5-4300Y has multiple levels of cache. Its L1 cache, which is the smallest and fastest, is 128 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 3 MB.

Cores and Clock Speeds

The Core i5-4300Y 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 1600.0 MHz, and it can boost up to 2300.0 MHz under heavy workloads. Higher clock speeds result in better performance for the same microarchitecture.

Integrated Graphics

The Core i5-4300Y includes an integrated graphics solution called Intel HD Graphics 4200. 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 Core i5-4300Y has the 643rd best 3DMark 11 Performance Physics score among the 721 benchmarked CPUs in our database. It achieves 4.70% of the performance of the best benchmarked CPU, the AMD Ryzen 9 7950X3D.

About the AMD A4-1200 CPU

The AMD A4-1200 is an end-of-life 2-core (2-thread) processor built for the mobile CPU market. It launched in Q2 2013. It is part of AMD's A4 lineup, which is based on the Temash microarchitecture. The A4-1200 is compatible with AMD Socket FT3 motherboards and is fabricated on GlobalFoundries's 28 nm manufacturing process. It features the Radeon HD 8180 integrated graphics solution.

Memory and Cache

The A4-1200 supports DDR3 memory and features a single-channel memory controller, allowing it to utilize 1 memory modules simultaneously. In terms of cache, the A4-1200 has multiple levels of cache. Its L1 cache, which is the smallest and fastest, is 64 KB in size, providing rapid access to crucial instructions. Its L2 cache, at 1 MB, is larger but slower than the L1.

Cores and Clock Speeds

The A4-1200 features 2 total cores which can process 2 threads simultaneously. The multi-threading capability allows the CPU to execute multiple computational tasks in parallel. The base clock speed of the CPU is 1000.0 MHz. Higher clock speeds result in higher performance for the same microarchitecture. The multiplier is locked, making it incapable of overclocking for pushing performance further.

Integrated Graphics

The A4-1200 includes an integrated graphics solution called Radeon HD 8180. 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 A4-1200 has the 716th best 3DMark 11 Performance Physics score among the 721 benchmarked CPUs in our database. It achieves 1.54% of the performance of the best benchmarked CPU, the AMD Ryzen 9 7950X3D.
