Overview
SummaryThe Intel Celeron B720 is a laptop processor with 1 cores and 1 threads, built on the Sandy Bridge architecture. It launched in Jan 2012. A 1.5-MB L3 cache backs the cores (1.5 MB per core). Rated TDP is 35 W.
Performance
5 metricsThe Intel Celeron B720 scores 462 in multi-core performance (PassMark CPU Mark ratings). From those two ratings Feex computes 423 for engineering performance. Its multi-core throughput works out to 462 per core, 462 per thread and 13 per watt. 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.
Workload sub-scores (integer math, floating point, compression, encryption, physics, SIMD, prime sieve and sorting) are not recorded for the Intel Celeron B720.
How these scores are computed
Single-core and multi-core performance are PassMark CPU Mark single-thread and multi-thread ratings. Every other figure on this page's performance section is computed by Feex from those two ratings plus core count, thread count and TDP, so it is a derived value and not a separate benchmark run.
- Overall performance is the geometric mean of the two ratings: the square root of single-core times multi-core.
- Productivity performance is 0.65 times multi-core plus 1.4 times single-core.
- Creator performance is 0.55 times multi-core plus 1.8 times single-core.
- Engineering performance is multi-core times the smaller of 1.4 and (0.9 plus cores divided by 64).
- Gaming performance is 3 times single-core plus 0.25 times multi-core.
- Performance per core, per thread and per watt divide the multi-core rating by physical cores, logical threads and TDP in watts.
- The efficiency index is the square root of single-core times multi-core, divided by the square root of TDP.
- The performance index is overall performance divided by the overall performance of the Intel Core i5-12400 (8,069), times 100.
Core Configuration
6 specsThe Intel Celeron B720 has 1 physical core and runs 1 logical thread. It does not use a hybrid performance and efficiency core layout. It does not support simultaneous multithreading, so its thread count equals its core count. It runs at a base clock of 1.70 GHz.
