Intel Pentium Silver N6000
The Pentium Silver N6000 is a 4 core CPU from Intel released in 2021. This chip has an average overall score with 1259 points in our CPU benchmark. Our gaming benchmark shows that this CPU is an average processor for gaming, with a score of 2315 points. As for multitasking and heavy workloads, the Pentium Silver N6000 scores 966 points and 927 points respectively. Indeed, this is a bad rating for very heavy workloads.
The Pentium Silver N6000 has 4 cores and 4 threads. This chip has no simultaneous multithreading support, as it has the same number of cores as threads. This Intel CPU has a clock speed of 1.1 GHz.
As for memory, the Pentium Silver N6000 makes use of DDR4 LPDDR4x memory. The faster the memory, the better. Faster memory means that the CPU doesn't have to wait to get the data it needs. It can accommodate a maximum of 16 GiB of memory. Furthermore, this chip can handle up to 2 channels of RAM, a multichannel memory architecture allows for higher data transfer between the CPU and the memory. However, to take advantage of this, you must have enough memory slots filled. Error correcting memory is not supported on this processor.
It has a total of 8 PCIe lanes.
Power and thermals for the Intel Pentium Silver N6000 CPU are a TDP (Thermal Design Power) of 6 watts. This measures the amount of heat the processor produces when running at full load. This isn't a measure of power consumption, but it's a good estimate.
