The Core i3-8145U processor from Intel was officially introduced to the market :year_text. The chip is manufactured using a 10 nm process node and is designed for installation in the compatible motherboards socket. The CPU received 2 physical cores. Thanks to multi-threading technology, it processes up to 4 data threads. In standard mode, the chip operates at 2.1 GHz. Under heavy loads, the frequency can automatically increase up to 3.9 GHz. For fast data exchange, 4 MB of third-level cache memory (L3) is provided. Nominal power consumption (TDP) is 15 W, so adequate cooling should be considered. In entry-level or mid-range gaming builds, this processor will perform confidently, providing acceptable frame rates when using an appropriate graphics accelerator.
