The Intel Celeron G3900 is a desktop processor with 2 cores, launched in September 2015. It is part of the Celeron lineup, using the Skylake architecture with Socket 1151. Celeron G3900 has 4 MB of L3 cache and operates at 2.8 GHz. Intel is building the Celeron G3900 on a 14 nm production process using 1,400 million transistors. The multiplier is locked on Celeron G3900, which limits its overclocking capabilities.
With a TDP of 51 W, the Celeron G3900 consumes typical power levels for a modern PC. Intel's processor supports DDR3 and DDR4 memory with a dual-channel interface. The highest officially supported memory speed is 2133 MT/s, but with overclocking (and the right memory modules) you can go even higher. For communication with other components in the system, Celeron G3900 uses a PCI-Express Gen 3 connection. This processor features the Intel HD 510 integrated graphics solution.
Hardware virtualization is available on the Celeron G3900, which greatly improves virtual machine performance. 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.
