The Intel Celeron 7300 is a mobile processor with 5 cores, launched in February 2022. It is part of the Celeron lineup, using the Alder Lake-U architecture with BGA 1781. Intel Hyper-Threading technology is available and effectly doubles the core-count of the P-Cores, to a total of 6 threads. Celeron 7300 has 8 MB of L3 cache and operates at 1000 MHz. Intel is building the Celeron 7300 on a 10 nm production process, the transistor count is unknown. The multiplier is locked on Celeron 7300, which limits its overclocking capabilities.
With a TDP of 9 W, the Celeron 7300 consumes extremely little energy. Intel's processor supports DDR4 and DDR5 memory with a dual-channel interface. For communication with other components in the machine, Celeron 7300 uses a PCI-Express Gen 4 connection. This processor features the UHD Graphics 48EU integrated graphics solution.
Hardware virtualization is available on the Celeron 7300, 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.
