Intel® Pentium® 2127U

The Intel Pentium 2127U is a laptop processor with 2 cores and 2 threads, built on the Ivy Bridge architecture. It launched in Jul 2013. A 2-MB L3 cache backs the cores (1.3 MB per core). It addresses DDR3 memory up to 32 GB across 2 channels. The chip drops into the FCBGA1023 socket and exposes PCIe 2.0 (16 lanes). Rated TDP is 17 W. Notable platform capabilities: Extended Page Tables (EPT).

The Intel Pentium 2127U scores 938 in single-core performance and 1,044 in multi-core performance (PassMark CPU Mark ratings). From those two ratings Feex computes 990 for overall performance, 1,992 for productivity performance, 2,263 for creator performance, 972 for engineering performance and 3,075 for gaming performance. Its multi-core throughput works out to 522 per core, 522 per thread and 61 per watt. Its computed efficiency index is 240. Its performance index is 12, so its overall performance is 88% 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 Pentium 2127U scores 3,520 in integer math, 2,666 in floating-point math, 18,411 in compression, 216 in cryptography, 133 in physics simulation, 699 in vector SIMD, 9 in the prime sieve and 2,273 in sorting. Higher is better. Compared with the Intel Core i5-12400, it is 94% below in integer math, 94% below in floating-point math, 92% below in compression, 98% below in cryptography, 88% below in physics simulation, 95% below in vector SIMD, 87% below in the prime sieve and 90% 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 Pentium 2127U has 2 physical cores and runs 2 logical threads. It does not support simultaneous multithreading, so its thread count equals its core count. It runs at a base clock of 1.90 GHz.

The Intel Pentium 2127U is a laptop processor, belongs to the Intel Pentium family, uses the Ivy Bridge architecture, carries the codename Ivy Bridge and is manufactured on a 22 nm process. It launched in Jul 2013.

The Intel Pentium 2127U has 128 KB of L1 cache, 512 KB of L2 cache and 2 MB of L3 cache. That adds up to about 2.6 MB of cache, or 1.31 MB per core. Each core has 256 KB of private L2 cache.

The Intel Pentium 2127U has a 3-level cache hierarchy: L1 at 128 KB, L2 at 512 KB and L3 at 2 MB. L3 is the largest level and makes up about 76% of the cache listed here.

The Intel Pentium 2127U supports DDR3 memory, addresses up to 32 GB of memory and uses 2 memory channels. It does not support DDR5, DDR4 and LPDDR memory.

The Intel Pentium 2127U includes integrated graphics (Intel HD Graphics for 3rd Generation Intel Processors) and clocks the graphics up to 1.00 GHz.

The Intel Pentium 2127U uses the FCBGA1023 socket, supports PCI Express 2.0 and provides up to 16 PCIe lanes.

The Intel Pentium 2127U has a rated TDP of 17 W.
