Intel HD Graphics 500 (12 EUs, 200 - 650 MHz), Quick Sync, AES-NI, max. Power Consumption (TDP = Thermal Design Power) The chip can therefore be cooled passively in theory, but SKUs with fans are possible as well. Similar to the predecessor, Intel specifies the TDP with 6 Watts (SDP 4 Watts – Scenario Design Power). The chip also includes an advanced video engine with hardware support for the playback of VP9 and H.265 material (8-bit color-depth). This means only older and simpler titles will run smoothly.

Equipped with 12 EUs and a clock of up to 650 MHz, the performance should be roughly on par with the older HD Graphics (Braswell). The HD Graphics 500 (Apollo Lake) is based on Intel's Gen9 architecture, which supports DirectX 12 and is also used for the Kaby Lake / Skylake graphics adapters (like HD Graphics 520). This means the processor is only suited for low demanding daily tasks (office, browsing). If the chip can maintain its Boost clock, the N3350 should be about 20-30 percent faster than the old N2840 (Braswell) and compete with an Celeron 2955U (Haswell, 2x 1.4 GHz). The CPU performance of the Celeron N3350 with its 2 CPU cores and a clock between 1.1-2.4 GHz should depend a lot on the cooling solution. The new Goldmont architecture should therefore be roughly on par with AMD's Beema/Carrizo-L APUs in terms of per-MHz performance, but it still far behind the more expensive Core CPUs (like Skylake / Kaby Lake). The manufacturer advertises performance gains of roughly 30 percent, but does not reveal any specifics about the individual changes. Intel still has not discontinued the N3350 as of August 2021.įor the first time in a couple of years, Intel completely reworked the CPU architecture of the Celerons.

Besides two CPU cores, the chip also includes a DirectX 12 capable GPU as well as a DDR3L/LPDDR3/LPDDR4 memory controller (dual-channel, up to 1866/2400 MHz). Similar to the Braswell predecessor, the chip is manufactured on the 14 nm process (P1273) with FinFETs. It runs at 1.1 - 2.4 GHz (Single Core Burst, Multi-Core Burst max 2.3 GHz) and is based on the Apollo Lake platform. The Intel Celeron N3350 is a dual-core SoC primarily for inexpensive notebooks and was announced mid 2016.
