The Intel Atom x7425E is a mobile processor with 4 cores, launched in January 2023, at an MSRP of $58. It is part of the Atom lineup, using the Gracemont architecture with BGA 1264. Atom x7425E has 6 MB of L3 cache and operates at 1500 MHz by default, but can boost up to 3.4 GHz, depending on the workload. Intel is building the Atom x7425E on a 10 nm production process, the transistor count is unknown. The multiplier is locked on Atom x7425E, which limits its overclocking capabilities.
With a TDP of 12 W, the Atom x7425E consumes very little energy. Intel's processor supports DDR4 and DDR5 memory with a single-channel interface. The highest officially supported memory speed is 4800 MT/s, but with overclocking (and the right memory modules) you can go even higher. For communication with other components in the system, Atom x7425E uses a PCI-Express Gen 3 connection. This processor features the UHD Graphics 24EU integrated graphics solution.
Hardware virtualization is available on the Atom x7425E, which greatly improves virtual machine performance. Additionally, IOMMU virtualization (PCI passthrough) is supported, so that guest virtual machines may directly use host hardware. Programs using Advanced Vector Extensions (AVX) will run on this processor, boosting performance for calculation-heavy applications. Besides AVX, Intel is including the newer AVX2 standard, too, but not AVX-512.
