Intel Processor N95 description

"... an entry-level mobile CPU for thin and light laptops from the Alder Lake-N series. It was announced in early 2023"
"The average N95 in our database is in the same league as the Pentium 7505 and the Core i3-1115G4, as far as multi-thread benchmark scores are concerned. That's not a great result, to put it mildly."
"The integrated graphics adapter is based on the Xe-architecture and offers only 16 of the 32 EUs (Execution Units) operating at only 1200 MHz. Due to the single channel memory, low clock speeds, and low shader count, the gaming performance of the iGPU is very limited."
"The N95 has a base power consumption of 12 W (compared to the 6 W of the N100) and is therefore well suited for thin and light systems."

"Earlier this year it transpired that in 2023, Intel intends to cease using its Celeron and Pentium brands for entry-level notebook CPUs."
"Since the Intel N95 is an entry-level product with only four efficient cores and rather low frequencies, it was certainly not designed to offer breakthrough performance. ... Yet, it stacks up very well against Intel's existing Celeron 7305 CPU with one high-performance and four energy-efficient cores that operate at 1.10 GHz. "

" ... both the Intel Processor N95 and Intel Processor N100 were released in the first quarter of 2023 and are based on the Alder Lake N architecture.
...
The two processors each have 4 processor cores that do not support hyperthreading, but the clock frequency is slightly different. The Intel Processor N95 has a slightly higher base clock frequency of 2.00 gigahertz; this is slightly lower for the Intel Processor N100 at 1.80 gigahertz. The maximum turbo clock frequency is identical at 3.40 gigahertz, but the Intel Processor N95 still reaches 3.20 gigahertz when all cores are utilized, whereas the Intel Processor N100 is already at 3.00 gigahertz."
" The biggest difference can be found in the power consumption: The Intel Processor N95 has a fixed TDP of 15W, while the Intel Processor N100 has 2 power limits, the first is 6W and the second is 25 watts."
