Core i3-1115G4

The Core i3-1115G4 is a 2-core / 4-thread processor based on the Tiger Lake-UP3 (2020−2021) architecture, manufactured on a 10 nm SuperFin process node. It reaches a maximum boost clock of 4.1 GHz from a base frequency of 2.2 GHz— higher boost clocks directly translate to better single-threaded performance and responsiveness in gaming. It carries 6 MB (total) of L3 cache, plus 1.25 MB (per core) of L2 cache and 80 kB (per core) of L1 cache per core. In the PassMark benchmark (a comprehensive multi-threaded test), it scores 5,860, 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 1,579.

The Core i3-1115G4 fits into the FCBGA1449 socket and supports PCIe 4.0 with 4 total PCIe lanes for expansion cards and storage. It supports DDR4 memory at speeds up to DDR4-3200 (faster RAM improves bandwidth-sensitive workloads), with a maximum capacity of 64 GB across 2 channels (dual-channel doubles bandwidth). Integrated graphics: UHD Graphics for 11th Gen (48 EU) — allows display output without a dedicated GPU, useful for troubleshooting and light tasks.

The Core i3-1115G4 is primarily designed for Mainstream Laptop. It supports AVX-512 instructions — specialized SIMD operations that significantly accelerate AI inference, scientific computing, and video encoding workloads. Virtualization: VT-x, VT-d, EPT — enables running virtual machines efficiently (important for development and server workloads). Its primary market competitor is the Ryzen 3 5300U.

The Core i3-1115G4 has a rated TDP (Thermal Design Power) of 15 Watt — this indicates the amount of heat generated under sustained load and determines what cooling solution is needed. No stock cooler is included — you will need to purchase an aftermarket cooler separately. Recommended cooling: None.

Performance ranking position: #1737 out of all indexed processors.
