Intel® Core™ i5-6198DU

The Intel Core i5-6198DU is a laptop processor with 2 cores and 4 threads, built on the Skylake architecture (14 nm process). It launched in Dec 2015. Clocks run from 2.3 GHz base to 2.8 GHz boost. A 3-MB L3 cache backs the cores (1.8 MB per core). It supports DDR3L, DDR4, LPDDR3 memory. The chip drops into the FCBGA1356 socket and exposes PCIe 3.0 (12 lanes). Rated TDP is 15 W. Notable platform capabilities: Extended Page Tables (EPT).

The Intel Core i5-6198DU scores 1,620 in single-core performance and 3,116 in multi-core performance (PassMark CPU Mark ratings). From those two ratings Feex computes 2,247 for overall performance, 4,293 for productivity performance, 4,630 for creator performance, 2,902 for engineering performance and 5,639 for gaming performance. Its multi-core throughput works out to 1,558 per core, 779 per thread and 208 per watt. Its computed efficiency index is 580. Its performance index is 28, so its overall performance is 72% 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 i5-6198DU scores 9,187 in integer math, 5,736 in floating-point math, 41,839 in compression, 1,032 in cryptography, 257 in physics simulation, 2,759 in vector SIMD, 12 in the prime sieve and 5,320 in sorting. Higher is better. Compared with the Intel Core i5-12400, it is 84% below in integer math, 88% below in floating-point math, 82% below in compression, 91% below in cryptography, 76% below in physics simulation, 82% below in vector SIMD, 82% below in the prime sieve and 77% 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 i5-6198DU 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 2.30 GHz and boosts up to 2.80 GHz.
