Intel® Core™ 5 320

The Intel Core 5 320 is a laptop processor with 6 cores and 6 threads, built on the Wildcat Lake architecture. It launched in Apr 2026. Clocks run from 1.5 GHz base to 4.6 GHz boost. A 6-MB L3 cache backs the cores (1.4 MB per core). It addresses LPDDR5X, DDR5 memory up to 64 GB across 1 channels. The chip drops into the FCBGA1516 socket and exposes PCIe 4.0 (6 lanes). Rated TDP is 15 W. Notable platform capabilities: Extended Page Tables (EPT), Control-flow Enforcement (CET).

The Intel Core 5 320 scores 3,971 in single-core performance and 15,239 in multi-core performance (PassMark CPU Mark ratings). From those two ratings Feex computes 7,779 for overall performance, 15,465 for productivity performance, 15,529 for creator performance, 15,144 for engineering performance and 15,723 for gaming performance. Its multi-core throughput works out to 2,540 per core, 2,540 per thread and 1,016 per watt. Its computed efficiency index is 2,009. Its performance index is 96, so its overall performance is 4% 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 Core 5 320 scores 31,894 in integer math, 42,062 in floating-point math, 145,927 in compression, 10,887 in cryptography, 1,220 in physics simulation, 12,910 in vector SIMD, 111 in the prime sieve and 17,791 in sorting. Higher is better. Compared with the Intel Core i5-12400, it is 46% below in integer math, 8% below in floating-point math, 36% below in compression, 5% below in cryptography, 12% above in physics simulation, 17% below in vector SIMD, 66% above in the prime sieve and 21% 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 Core 5 320 has 6 physical cores and runs 6 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 1.50 GHz and boosts up to 4.60 GHz.

The Intel Core 5 320 is a laptop processor, belongs to the Intel Core 5 family, uses the Wildcat Lake architecture, carries the codename Wildcat Lake and is manufactured on a 2 nm process. It launched in Apr 2026.

The Intel Core 5 320 has 608 KB of L1 cache, 2 MB of L2 cache and 6 MB of L3 cache. That adds up to about 8.6 MB of cache, or 1.43 MB per core.

The Intel Core 5 320 has a 3-level cache hierarchy: L1 at 608 KB, L2 at 2 MB and L3 at 6 MB. L3 is the largest level and makes up about 70% of the cache listed here.

The Intel Core 5 320 supports LPDDR5X, DDR5 memory, addresses up to 64 GB of memory, uses 1 memory channel and runs memory at up to 6,400 MT/s. It does not support DDR4 memory.

The Intel Core 5 320 includes integrated graphics (Intel Graphics) and clocks the graphics up to 2.50 GHz.

The Intel Core 5 320 uses the FCBGA1516 socket, supports PCI Express 4.0 and provides up to 6 PCIe lanes.

The Intel Core 5 320 has a rated TDP of 15 W.
