Intel® Pentium® E5700
The Intel Pentium E5700 is a desktop processor released on August 29, 2010, built on the Core (Penryn) architecture using a 45 nm process. It has 2 cores and 2 threads, a base clock of 3.00 GHz, a 65 W TDP and the LGA775 socket.
Overview
SummaryThe Intel Pentium E5700 is a desktop processor with 2 cores and 2 threads, built on the Core (Penryn) architecture. It launched in Aug 2010. It uses the LGA775 socket. Rated TDP is 65 W. Feex currently counts 1 machine in its hardware fleet with exactly this processor.
Performance
12 metricsThe Intel Pentium E5700 scores 1,191 in single-core performance and 1,111 in multi-core performance (PassMark CPU Mark ratings). From those two ratings Feex computes 1,150 for overall performance, 2,390 for productivity performance, 2,755 for creator performance, 1,035 for engineering performance and 3,851 for gaming performance. Its multi-core throughput works out to 556 per core, 556 per thread and 17 per watt. Its computed efficiency index is 143. 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.
How these scores are computed
Single-core and multi-core performance are PassMark CPU Mark single-thread and multi-thread ratings. Every other figure on this page's performance section is computed by Feex from those two ratings plus core count, thread count and TDP, so it is a derived value and not a separate benchmark run.
- Overall performance is the geometric mean of the two ratings: the square root of single-core times multi-core.
- Productivity performance is 0.65 times multi-core plus 1.4 times single-core.
- Creator performance is 0.55 times multi-core plus 1.8 times single-core.
- Engineering performance is multi-core times the smaller of 1.4 and (0.9 plus cores divided by 64).
- Gaming performance is 3 times single-core plus 0.25 times multi-core.
- Performance per core, per thread and per watt divide the multi-core rating by physical cores, logical threads and TDP in watts.
- The efficiency index is the square root of single-core times multi-core, divided by the square root of TDP.
- The performance index is overall performance divided by the overall performance of the Intel Core i5-12400 (8,069), times 100.
Workload Benchmarks
8 workloadsScores 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 E5700 scores 5,179 in integer math, 2,965 in floating-point math, 23,893 in compression, 294 in cryptography, 87 in physics simulation, 423 in vector SIMD, 4 in the prime sieve and 3,078 in sorting. Higher is better. Compared with the Intel Core i5-12400, it is 91% below in integer math, 94% below in floating-point math, 90% below in compression, 97% below in cryptography, 92% below in physics simulation, 97% below in vector SIMD, 94% below in the prime sieve and 86% 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.
Core Configuration
6 specsThe Intel Pentium E5700 has 2 physical cores and runs 2 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 3.00 GHz.
Architecture & Generation
8 specsThe Intel Pentium E5700 is a desktop processor, belongs to the Intel Pentium Dual-Core family, uses the Core (Penryn) architecture, carries the codename Wolfdale-3M and is manufactured on a 45 nm process. It launched in Aug 2010.
Cache
4 specsThe Intel Pentium E5700 has 128 KB of L1 cache and 2 MB of L2 cache. That adds up to about 2.1 MB of cache, or 1.06 MB per core.
Cache Hierarchy
2 levelsThe Intel Pentium E5700 has a 2-level cache hierarchy: L1 at 128 KB and L2 at 2 MB. L2 is the largest level and makes up about 94% of the cache listed here.

Naming & Aliases
3 specsReal-world compute in the Feex fleet
1 machineAcross 1 Feex machine with the Intel Pentium E5700, the busiest minute reached 6.00 FCU/s; 95 percent of recorded minutes stayed under 5.43 FCU/s (90.5% of its 6.00 FCU/s capacity), over 2,539 machine-minutes from October 1, 2026 to November 11, 2026. Over the longer hour-resolution record (September 2, 2026 to November 11, 2026), the busiest minute reached 6.00 FCU/s.
Minute resolution
2,539 valid machine-minutes from 1 Feex machine (0 fully idle, 5 rejected as over 102 percent), October 1, 2026 to November 11, 2026.
Hour resolution
168 valid machine-hours from 1 Feex machine, September 2, 2026 to November 11, 2026. Hourly peak is the busiest minute of each hour; 20 hours were excluded from peak statistics as over 102 percent, and 67 hours with fewer than 30 reported minutes were left out.
Average compute by hour of day
Withheld: an hour-of-day curve is shown once at least 3 Feex machines with this processor contribute, so no individual's daily schedule can be read from it.
Top programs by measured compute
Withheld: program names are shown once at least 3 Feex machines with this processor ran them, so no individual's app usage can be read from this page.
Tier 3 estimate: FCU/s = whole-machine CPU utilization x logical threads x base clock x reference IPC 1.0 (1 FCU = one billion instructions). Boost clocks and real IPC are not measured, so this describes how hard these machines were driven, not a benchmark. Data through November 11, 2026. Because fewer than 3 machines contribute, these figures cover whole days (UTC) and are updated once per day.
