The Intel Core m3-8114Y was a mobile processor with 2 cores, launched in May 2018. It is part of the Core m3 lineup, using the Cannon Lake-Y architecture with BGA 1440. Thanks to Intel Hyper-Threading the core-count is effectively doubled, to 4 threads. Core m3-8114Y has 4 MB of L3 cache and operates at 1500 MHz by default, but can boost up to 2.2 GHz, depending on the workload. Intel is building the Core m3-8114Y on a 10 nm production process, the transistor count is unknown. The multiplier is locked on Core m3-8114Y, which limits its overclocking capabilities.
With a TDP of 5 W, the Core m3-8114Y consumes extremely little energy. Intel's processor supports DDR4 memory with a dual-channel interface. The highest officially supported memory speed is 2400 MT/s, but with overclocking (and the right memory modules) you can go even higher. For communication with other components in the system, Core m3-8114Y uses a PCI-Express Gen 3 connection. This processor features the UHD Graphics integrated graphics solution.
Hardware virtualization is available on the Core m3-8114Y, 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.
