Description of the processor

The dual-core CPU Intel Celeron N4000 designed for the mobile sector has a standard clock rate of 1.10 gigahertz. If necessary, the processor activates turbo mode, in which the clock frequency of the 2 cores increases to 2.60 gigahertz each.

The Intel Celeron N4000 was released in the fourth quarter of 2017, is based on Intels "Gemini Lake" architecture and is manufactured using the 14 nanometer process. The processor has to be firmly soldered and is used in various notebooks, such as the Lenovo Chromebook S340-14, but also in some mini PCs, such as the Gigabyte Brix GB-BLCE-4000C.

When it comes to memory, device manufacturers have the choice between DDR4 memory with a clock frequency of up to 2400 megahertz or LPDDR4 memory with also up to 2400 megahertz. The 4 megabyte L3 cache supports the exchange of data between the processor and the main memory.

The internal graphics unit of the Intel Celeron N4000 with the name "Intel UHD Graphics 600" supports image output on up to 3 screens in parallel. The graphics unit clocks at 0.20 gigahertz when it is not really used. If you give the graphics unit a little more to do, turbo mode is activated and the clock frequency increases to up to 0.65 gigahertz.

Due to the very low TDP (Thermal Design Power) of only 6 watts, the Intel Celeron N4000 is a very economical processor in terms of energy consumption. At the same time, this also means that it does not develop as much heat and is therefore also used in some tablets, such as the Lenovo Ideapad D330-10IGM.

With 138 points, the Cinebench 15 multi-core score is on par with an Intel Celeron N3160 from the first quarter of 2016 (Braswall architecture). Here, however, 4 cores were still necessary to achieve this score.
