Processing Power

The Celeron 6305 is a 2-core / 2-thread processor based on the Tiger Lake-U (2020−2021) architecture, manufactured on a 10 nm SuperFin process node. It reaches a maximum boost clock of 1.8 GHz— higher boost clocks directly translate to better single-threaded performance and responsiveness in gaming. It carries 4 MB of L3 cache, plus 2.5 MB of L2 cache and 160 kB of L1 cache per core. In the PassMark benchmark (a comprehensive multi-threaded test), it scores 2,077, placing it in the Entry Level performance tier as a Aging generation product. Geekbench 6 single-core (the most relevant metric for gaming FPS) records 744, while multi-core reaches 1,236.
