Intel® Atom™ N2600

The Intel Atom N2600 is a laptop processor with 2 cores and 4 threads, built on the Cedarview architecture. It launched in Oct 2011. A 1-MB L3 cache backs the cores (0.8 MB per core). It addresses DDR3 memory up to 2.44 GB across 1 channels. It uses the FCBGA559 socket. Rated TDP is 3.5 W.

The Intel Atom N2600 scores 277 in single-core performance and 344 in multi-core performance (PassMark CPU Mark ratings). From those two ratings Feex computes 309 for overall performance, 611 for productivity performance, 688 for creator performance, 320 for engineering performance and 917 for gaming performance. Its multi-core throughput works out to 172 per core, 86 per thread and 98 per watt. Its computed efficiency index is 165. Its performance index is 4, so its overall performance is 96% below the Intel Core i5-12400 (index 100). Each bar shows the score as a share of a reference ceiling, which is the larger of the 99th-percentile score across the Feex CPU database and a fixed baseline.

Scores for individual PassMark CPU Mark test categories. Higher is better. These are measured test scores, not computed from the single-core and multi-core ratings.

In the individual workload tests the Intel Atom N2600 scores 1,306 in integer math, 617 in floating-point math, 9,704 in compression, 98 in cryptography, 54 in physics simulation, 132 in vector SIMD, 2 in the prime sieve and 1,301 in sorting. Higher is better. Compared with the Intel Core i5-12400, it is 98% below in integer math, 99% below in floating-point math, 96% below in compression, 99% below in cryptography, 95% below in physics simulation, 99% below in vector SIMD, 97% below in the prime sieve and 94% below in sorting. Each bar shows the score as a share of that workload's reference ceiling, the larger of the 99th-percentile score across CPUs with a recorded value and a fixed baseline.

The Intel Atom N2600 has 2 physical cores and runs 4 logical threads. It runs 2 threads per core. It runs at a base clock of 1.60 GHz.

The Intel Atom N2600 is a laptop processor, belongs to the Intel Atom family, uses the Cedarview architecture, carries the codename Cedarview and is manufactured on a 32 nm process. It launched in Oct 2011.

The Intel Atom N2600 has 56 KB of L1 cache, 512 KB of L2 cache and 1 MB of L3 cache. That adds up to about 1.6 MB of cache, or 0.78 MB per core.

The Intel Atom N2600 has a 3-level cache hierarchy: L1 at 56 KB, L2 at 512 KB and L3 at 1 MB. L3 is the largest level and makes up about 64% of the cache listed here.
