Description of the processor

The Intel Pentium Silver N6000 is a 4-core processor without hyper-threading (maximum 4 threads), which is based on Intels newly developed "Jasper Lake" architecture. Its clock frequency is very low 1.1 GHz. However, this can lift the processor as long as it allows energy consumption and temperature. In the so-called turbo mode, the processor then reaches 2.5 GHz on all cores or up to 3.1 GHz if only one core is claimed.

Jasper Lake is the successor of Gemini-Lake or Gemini-Lake Refresh. His new tremont cores are much faster than in its predecessor. Even with the IGPU (internal graphics), Intel has donated the Intel Pentium Silver N6000 the new Tiger Lake graphics, though only in a fairly small expansion stage with 48 execution units or 384 shaders. For PC games, the Intel Pentium Silver N6000 is suitable as well as so not, its purpose of use is smaller servers or NAS systems in addition to office computers or notebooks.

With a TDP of only 6 watts, the processor manufactured in 10 Nm is even more economical than the already economical Gemini-Lake processors. In the short term, the processor in the PL2 state may raise its TDP BI Sauf 20 watts. Due to the low energy absorption or waste heat, the processor can be passively cooled.

New is also an improved equipment on PCIe 3.0 lines. Up to 12 lines are now available in standard 3.0. In addition to SATA ports, M.2 slots or network cards (also 10 GB / s) can be connected.

The Intel Pentium Silver N6000 supports up to 32 GB of type LPDDR4-2933 Memory in two memory channels. Very probably the processor can also deal with DDR4-2666 SO-DIMM Memory. The ECC error correction method of the memory is not supported. This is a pity with regard to use in small servers or NAS systems.
