Intel Processor U300
The Intel Processor U300 is an entry-level Raptor Lake-U mobile chip for budget laptops, with 1 Performance core and 4 Efficient cores (5 cores, 6 threads) and a 4.4 GHz maximum turbo. Built on Intel 7 with 8 MB of cache and 48-EU UHD Graphics, it has a 15 W base power rating and 55 W maximum turbo power.
Pros
- Five cores and six threads from 1 Performance and 4 Efficient cores
- Up to 4.4 GHz Performance-core turbo frequency
- Low 15 W base power rating (55 W maximum turbo power) suits mobile designs
- Memory support spans DDR5-5200, LPDDR5/X-5200, DDR4-3200 and LPDDR4X-4267, up to 96 GB
- PCIe 4.0 support from the processor
Cons
- Only one Performance core, so multi-threaded work is limited; a retail laptop scored 4,905 in Cinebench R23 multi-core in review testing
- 48-EU UHD Graphics is a basic integrated GPU; a retail laptop scored 643 in 3DMark Time Spy Graphics in review testing
- Intel 7 process is older than the nodes used by newer mobile chips
