Intel® Core™ m3-7Y30

The Intel Core m3-7Y30 is a laptop processor with 2 cores and 4 threads, built on the Kaby Lake architecture (14 nm process). It launched in Jul 2016. Clocks run from 1.0 GHz base to 2.6 GHz boost. A 4-MB L3 cache backs the cores (2.3 MB per core). It addresses LPDDR3 memory up to 16 GB across 2 channels. The chip drops into the FCBGA1515 socket and exposes PCIe 3.0 (10 lanes). Rated TDP is 4.5 W. Notable platform capabilities: Extended Page Tables (EPT).

The Intel Core m3-7Y30 scores 1,336 in single-core performance and 2,466 in multi-core performance (PassMark CPU Mark ratings). From those two ratings Feex computes 1,815 for overall performance, 3,473 for productivity performance, 3,761 for creator performance, 2,296 for engineering performance and 4,625 for gaming performance. Its multi-core throughput works out to 1,233 per core, 617 per thread and 548 per watt. Its computed efficiency index is 856. Its performance index is 22, so its overall performance is 78% 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 m3-7Y30 scores 7,615 in integer math, 4,659 in floating-point math, 31,160 in compression, 815 in cryptography, 230 in physics simulation, 2,066 in vector SIMD, 11 in the prime sieve and 4,121 in sorting. Higher is better. Compared with the Intel Core i5-12400, it is 87% below in integer math, 90% below in floating-point math, 86% below in compression, 93% below in cryptography, 79% below in physics simulation, 87% below in vector SIMD, 84% below in the prime sieve and 82% 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 m3-7Y30 has 2 physical cores and runs 4 logical threads. It runs 2 threads per core. It runs at a base clock of 1.00 GHz and boosts up to 2.60 GHz.
