The HD Graphics 500 (Apollo Lake) is based on Intel's Gen9 architecture, which supports DirectX 12 and is also used for the Kaby Lake / Skylake graphics adapters (like HD Graphics 520). Therefore, the CPU is best suited for light tasks with not much multitasking (office, browsing). The CPU performance of the Celeron J3455 is between the mobile Celeron N3450 and Pentium N4200 in the lower range of mobile processors. The new Goldmont architecture should therefore be roughly on par with AMD's Beema/Carrizo-L APUs in terms of per-MHz performance, but it still far behind the more expensive Core CPUs (like Skylake / Kaby Lake). The manufacturer advertises performance gains of roughly 30 percent, but does not reveal any specifics about the individual changes. Besides two CPU cores, the chip also includes a DirectX 12 capable GPU as well as a DDR3L/LPDDR3/LPDDR4 memory controller (dual-channel, up to 1866/2400 MHz).įor the first time in a couple of years, Intel completely reworked the CPU architecture of the Atom series. Similar to the Braswell predecessor, the chip is manufactured in a 14 nm process (P1273) with FinFETs.

It runs at 1.5 - 2.3 GHz (Single Core Burst) and is based on the Apollo Lake platform.

The Intel Celeron J3355 is a quad-core SoC primarily for inexpensive notebooks and Mini-PCs and was announced in late 2016. Intel Celeron J3455 ► remove from comparison
