Intel® Core™ i5-450M

The Intel Core i5-450M is a laptop processor with 2 cores and 4 threads (32 nm process). It launched in Jun 2010. Clocks run from 2.4 GHz base to 2.66 GHz boost. A 3-MB L3 cache backs the cores (1.8 MB per core). Rated TDP is 35 W.

The Intel Core i5-450M scores 1,060 in single-core performance and 1,274 in multi-core performance (PassMark CPU Mark ratings). From those two ratings Feex computes 1,162 for overall performance, 2,312 for productivity performance, 2,609 for creator performance, 1,186 for engineering performance and 3,499 for gaming performance. Its multi-core throughput works out to 637 per core, 319 per thread and 36 per watt. Its computed efficiency index is 196. Its performance index is 14, so its overall performance is 86% 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 i5-450M scores 6,592 in integer math, 2,911 in floating-point math, 27,231 in compression, 236 in cryptography, 156 in physics simulation, 767 in vector SIMD, 8 in the prime sieve and 3,641 in sorting. Higher is better. Compared with the Intel Core i5-12400, it is 89% below in integer math, 94% below in floating-point math, 88% below in compression, 98% below in cryptography, 86% below in physics simulation, 95% below in vector SIMD, 88% 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 Core i5-450M has 2 physical cores and runs 4 logical threads. It does not use a hybrid performance and efficiency core layout. It runs 2 threads per core. It runs at a base clock of 2.40 GHz and boosts up to 2.66 GHz.

The Intel Core i5-450M is a laptop processor, belongs to the Intel Core i5 family and is manufactured on a 32 nm process. It launched in Jun 2010.

The Intel Core i5-450M has 128 KB of L1 cache, 512 KB of L2 cache and 3 MB of L3 cache. That adds up to about 3.6 MB of cache, or 1.81 MB per core. Each core has 256 KB of private L2 cache.

The Intel Core i5-450M has a 3-level cache hierarchy: L1 at 128 KB, L2 at 512 KB and L3 at 3 MB. L3 is the largest level and makes up about 83% of the cache listed here.

The Intel Core i5-450M includes integrated graphics (HD Graphics) and clocks the graphics up to 0.77 GHz.

The Intel Core i5-450M supports PCI Express 2.0 and provides up to 16 PCIe lanes.

The Intel Core i5-450M has a rated TDP of 35 W.
