Intel® Celeron® G540T

The Intel Celeron G540T is a desktop processor with 2 cores and 2 threads, built on the Sandy Bridge architecture. It launched in Jun 2012. A 2-MB L3 cache backs the cores (1.6 MB per core). It uses the FCLGA1155 socket. Rated TDP is 35 W.

The Intel Celeron G540T scores 995 in single-core performance and 1,137 in multi-core performance (PassMark CPU Mark ratings). From those two ratings Feex computes 1,064 for overall performance, 2,132 for productivity performance, 2,416 for creator performance, 1,059 for engineering performance and 3,269 for gaming performance. Its multi-core throughput works out to 569 per core, 569 per thread and 33 per watt. Its computed efficiency index is 180. Its performance index is 13, so its overall performance is 87% 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 Celeron G540T scores 4,469 in integer math, 2,368 in floating-point math, 21,539 in compression, 230 in cryptography, 151 in physics simulation, 649 in vector SIMD, 8 in the prime sieve and 2,786 in sorting. Higher is better. Compared with the Intel Core i5-12400, it is 92% below in integer math, 95% below in floating-point math, 91% below in compression, 98% below in cryptography, 86% below in physics simulation, 96% below in vector SIMD, 88% below in the prime sieve and 88% 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 Celeron G540T has 2 physical cores and runs 2 logical threads. 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 2.10 GHz.

The Intel Celeron G540T is a desktop processor, belongs to the Intel Celeron family, uses the Sandy Bridge architecture and carries the codename Sandy Bridge. It launched in Jun 2012.

The Intel Celeron G540T has 256 KB of L1 cache, 1 MB of L2 cache and 2 MB of L3 cache. That adds up to about 3.3 MB of cache, or 1.63 MB per core.

The Intel Celeron G540T has a 3-level cache hierarchy: L1 at 256 KB, L2 at 1 MB and L3 at 2 MB. L3 is the largest level and makes up about 62% of the cache listed here.

The Intel Celeron G540T includes integrated graphics (HD Graphics (6 EUs)) and clocks the graphics up to 1.00 GHz.

The Intel Celeron G540T uses the FCLGA1155 socket.

The Intel Celeron G540T has a rated TDP of 35 W.
