Desktop Pentium N3700 Braswell Specifications revealed

[Rohith_Kumar_Sp]

Soon awaits us premiere of processors from Intel Braswell series, which will replace the current generation of the Bay Trail. Later this quarter, there will be versions for laptops and after one quarter for desktop. 


 

Desktop Pentium N3700 Braswell comes in Q2 15


 

Braswell processors will be done in 14-nanometer lithography and will take the form of SoC (System-on-chip). On the market there will be models of 2- and 4-core featuring integrated graphics to be compatible with DirectX 12 and Ultra HD resolution (4K) @60 Hz.

 

One of the most powerful representatives will be from Pentium N3700 series, which is to have four cores clocked at 1.6 GHz in standard mode and 2.4 GHz in Turbo mode. In addition, the manufacturer will integrate its 2 MB L2 cache, 2-channel DDR3-1600 memory controller and graphics chip HD Graphics with frequencies of 400/700 MHz.TDP is only 6 W.

Previously, VR-Zone posted a diagram Braswell allegedly architecture which can be seen impressively 4 Core Atom, and 1MB L2 cache did not match the two cores (a total of 2MB), as well as the eighth generation graphics core, and a variety of input and output.


 

From this design look, Braswell should be a continuation of the current system Silvermont architecture, essentially the current Pentium / Celeron J / N series, Atom Z3000 series is no different, but the process plan it, I am afraid that the performance is not too effective to surprise.

The Pentium N3700 series processor will give the power to All-in-One computers – for example a model with 21.5-inch touchscreen and Windows 8.1 you will have to pay about $450.

I though of Brazzers when I saw the word Braswell.

[Tedster]

Aaalrighty then...

 

Speaking of weak computers:

My former primary school is still running better computers than my current secondary school...

[slightlyjaded]

yeah, not really caring. this isn't the consumer strand. It's how low power can we go..... Yup, we care a lot.

 

Sorry that  was judgmental. This seems to want to compete with a the tegra K1. I'm sure I'd care if mobile Phones were using tegra's in bulk.

Wow that sucks, I remember being at college and most of the computers were running Pentium 4 HT's still with the occasional Core 2 Duo. Now I think they're running Sandy Bridge Core i3's.

"brazzwell" no but seriously, who the hell came up with that name? sounds horrible.

The scientists who designs the chip , linus cleared it in the AMA Intel Stream with Intel 

[qwertywarrior]

Baytrail was already amazing to begin with it just needed a bit more GPU power (not that good for Steam streaming)

this is just what it needs and braswell seems to deliver on that

 

i would really like if they completely remove the N prefix though

[harrynowl]

Intel are a semiconductor/microprocessor company not a naming company

 

Anyway this is impressive and people should care. My friends Baytrail Pentium N3450 was faster than my i3 3217u and uses 1/3rd the power.

 

Although I hope they're looking to improve their graphics performance.

[azurezeed]

just give us Broadwell intel!

[Opcode]

I'd honestly rather have Carrizo than a Braswell.

[McMurderMonkey]

Not too sure on the name, but if the power consumption delivers, then I'm sure nobody'll mind.

FFS people, Haswell, Broadwell, and Braswell are all famous, respected scientists in their fields. Now, they're not physicists like Nvidia's Fermi, Kepler, Maxwell architectures, but still! These names are not just made up!

right, didn't think about that, I assumed they had just mixed "broadwell" and "haswell" into a single word. Btw, no need to get unpleasant here, its just an honest mistake.

he wasn't being unpleasant , it's just one of those things people say these days , like saying "lol" at end of every statement , unless i'm wrong and he totally wanted to be unpleasant 

[Rohith_Kumar_Sp]

It was partly general disappointment. Human stupidity and lack of thought is saddening.

can be said the same when people say "OMG", just an indicative expression, times pass, trends change. 

[Norman_the_Owl]

Still not as pad as jumping from Z97 to Z170 instead of Z107

[Sauron]

Atoms are being used by asus in their phones (most notably the upcoming zenfone 2 which will most likely be a complete blast for the price) and have nothing to envy to their arm counterparts when it comes to performance. The GPU is a little weaker than the K1's, but the CPU itself is faster. Hopefully it gets more widely adopted, since it's compatible with the ARM instruction set as well as x86. It's the best of both worlds, and enthusiasts would actually be able to run any desktop operating systems on them (as well as the huge library of desktop programs).

Let me quote.

 

 

Intel’s flagship chip architecture and upcoming processor, codenamed “Haswell,” will be introduced at Computex in Taiwan amid much fanfare and is expected to inspire a range of sleek touch-based devices. But according to the man who came up with the codename the naming process was pretty mundane.

 

Intel Haswell Chip

"Haswell" is the internal codename of 4th generation Intel Core processors.

“It’s not very romantic at all,” said Russ Hampsten about the process. “I’ve done a bunch of them and they’re actually more painful than romantic.”

 

Intel’s legal department takes some fun out of the naming process, according to Hampsten and others, requiring that internal codenames be existing geographical, non-trademarked places in North America that can be found on a map. “Molalla” was originally considered as the codename and met the legal conditions, but Hampsten, a strategic product planner in the Intel Architecture Group, nixed the name even though it was derived from a town in his native Oregon.

 

“No one could spell it or pronounce it so we looked for something a little bit better,” he said.

 

Hampsten took the naming project home with him. Late one night while sitting with his laptop on a “boring brown couch in his living room” he found Haswell, Colo.

 

“I did a zip code search for something easy to spell, simple and catchy,” he said. “I started with Oregon and then moved out by state while staying in the West. I wanted a city at the time. I didn’t want to go for a mountain range or something like that.”

 

After running the finalists through a self-performed trademark search, Hampsten submitted “three or four” options to Intel attorneys and Haswell, population 68, according to the 2010 census, became the codename for what is officially called 4th generation Intel Core processors.

 

“But that’s the easy part,” he said. “Then you have to get the team to buy into it. On that front, luckily there was no major pushback. I don’t think anyone said it’s great, it’s fantastic, but they said it was fine — we just need a name.

Intel mostly code names based on a location or place, rarely based on a person. Braswell is a city located in the United States of Georgia.

Forgot which code name it was, but Intel had this laptop and on the back of it was a logo of a boat in a river, lake, or something. It looked quite nice.

[Tonylu1595]

Now just stick in a Titan Black inside that chip and it will be all good.

[Aniallation]

G4258 hype?

[That Norwegian Guy]

Does this mean the C2750 Atom / Avoton m-ITX 8-core server boards will have a successor?

 

Literally the only grain of interest I managed to muster up for this.
