Intel® Celeron® J3160

The Intel Celeron J3160 is a desktop processor with 4 cores and 4 threads, built on the Braswell architecture. It launched in Jan 2016. Clocks run from 1.6 GHz base to 2.2 GHz boost. A 2-MB L3 cache backs the cores (1.1 MB per core). It addresses DDR3L memory up to 8 GB across 2 channels. The chip drops into the FCBGA1170 socket and exposes PCIe 2.0 (4 lanes). Rated TDP is 6 W. Notable platform capabilities: Extended Page Tables (EPT).

The Intel Celeron J3160 scores 596 in single-core performance and 1,248 in multi-core performance (PassMark CPU Mark ratings). From those two ratings Feex computes 862 for overall performance, 1,646 for productivity performance, 1,759 for creator performance, 1,201 for engineering performance and 2,100 for gaming performance. Its multi-core throughput works out to 312 per core, 312 per thread and 208 per watt. Its computed efficiency index is 352. Its performance index is 11, so its overall performance is 89% 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 J3160 scores 6,241 in integer math, 1,396 in floating-point math, 27,008 in compression, 463 in cryptography, 116 in physics simulation, 572 in vector SIMD, 5 in the prime sieve and 3,531 in sorting. Higher is better. Compared with the Intel Core i5-12400, it is 89% below in integer math, 97% below in floating-point math, 88% below in compression, 96% below in cryptography, 89% below in physics simulation, 96% below in vector SIMD, 93% below in the prime sieve and 84% 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 J3160 has 4 physical cores and runs 4 logical threads. It does not support simultaneous multithreading, so its thread count equals its core count. It runs at a base clock of 1.60 GHz and boosts up to 2.20 GHz.

The Intel Celeron J3160 is a desktop processor, belongs to the Intel Celeron family, uses the Braswell architecture, carries the codename Braswell and is manufactured on a 14 nm process. It launched in Jan 2016.

The Intel Celeron J3160 has 224 KB of L1 cache, 2 MB of L2 cache and 2 MB of L3 cache. That adds up to about 4.2 MB of cache, or 1.05 MB per core.

The Intel Celeron J3160 has a 3-level cache hierarchy: L1 at 224 KB, L2 at 2 MB and L3 at 2 MB. L2 is the largest level and makes up about 47% of the cache listed here.

The Intel Celeron J3160 supports DDR3L memory, addresses up to 8 GB of memory, uses 2 memory channels and runs memory at up to 1,600 MT/s. It does not support DDR5, DDR4 and LPDDR memory.

The Intel Celeron J3160 includes integrated graphics (HD Graphics 400) and clocks the graphics up to 0.70 GHz.

The Intel Celeron J3160 uses the FCBGA1170 socket, supports PCI Express 2.0 and provides up to 4 PCIe lanes.

The Intel Celeron J3160 has a rated TDP of 6 W.
