Intel Core i5-4200Y
Benchmarks & Specs

The Intel Core i5-4200Y was designed as a specialist for a very specific category of devices. This processor, manufactured using the 22 nm process, belongs to the Haswell Y architecture and targeted extremely thin, mobile systems. Its main feature was its low power consumption. This made it the ideal choice for fanless tablets or very thin Ultrabooks.

In this way, we were able to develop devices that were barely audible and also offered truly good battery life. An integrated graphics unit, the Intel HD Graphics 4200, took care of all image output. It provided the necessary performance for everyday screen tasks and smooth playback of media content.

For simple office applications, surfing the Internet or editing e-mails, the processor provided a quite acceptable performance. The 3 MB Level 3 cache supported the fast access times to frequently used data. We were quite surprised at the functionality contained in such an energy-efficient package. Although it is no longer one of the top performers today, the Intel Core i5-4200Y can still reliably do its job in its original niche.
