The Intel 310, a new Raptor Lake processor that features only two Performance-cores—a number that’s far shy of what the typical CPU is advertising these days, including Intel’s own flagship, the Core i9-14900KS, which delivers a total of 24—is being readied for enthusiasts on a budget, according to a new Geekbench entry that can confirm the four-threaded chip has a base frequency of 4.09 GHz, enabling single-core and multi-core scores of 2,152 and 4,254, respectively, in version 6.3.0 of the benchmark. The Intel 300T and Intel 300, its predecessors, were launched by Intel in Q1 2024 and remain available for around $100.

Geekbench scores:

  • Single-core: 2,152
  • Multi-core: 4,254

Intel 310 specs:

  • 2 cores and 4 threads
  • 4.09 GHz base frequency
  • LGA 1700 socket
  • 6 MB cache memory

The original word from @benchleaks:

From a report:

This particular chip was tested on the Gigabyte H610M K DDR4 motherboard which is a perfect match for this low-end CPU. The CPU was tested with 8 GB of DDR4-3200 memory running in a single-channel mode. In terms of TDP, the CPU should feature a 46W design.

…the Intel 310 CPU scored 2152 points in the single-core tests at Geekbench 6 which puts it ahead of the AMD Ryzen 7 5800X. For the multi-threaded tests, the CPU scored 4252 points which puts it ahead of the Core i3-10100, a 4-core and 8-thread part. The 10100 has a vastly lower single-core score.
