The Intel Core i5-1130G7 is a power-efficient quad-core SoC for laptops and Ultrabooks based on the Tiger Lake-U generation (UP4) that was introduced in September 2020. It integrates four Willow Cove processor cores (8 threads thanks to Hyper-Threading). Each core can clock from 0.8 GHz (base speed at 7 Watt TDP) to 1.8 GHz (base speed at 15 Watt TDP) all the way to 4 GHz (1 core boost for all TDPs). All cores at once can clock at up to 3.4 GHz.
Another novelty is the integrated Xe graphics card based on the completely new Gen 12 architecture. It should offer a significantly higher performance compared to the older Iris Plus G7 (Ice Lake). In the i5-1130G7 it uses 80 of the 96 EUs and clocks between 400 - 1100 MHz. The GPU and CPU can together use the 8 MB of L3 cache.
Furthermore, Tiger Lake SoCs add PCIe 4 support (four lanes), AI hardware acceleration, and the partial integration of Thunderbolt 4 / USB 4 and Wi-Fi 6 in the chip.
Performance
The average 1130G7 in our database is very close to the N95 and also the Core i5-1140G7, as far as multi-thread benchmark scores are concerned. This is a so-so result, as of early 2023.
Your mileage may vary depending on how high the CPU power limits are, and how competent the cooling solution of your system is.
Power consumption
This Core i5 has a default TDP of 7 W to 15 W, the expectation being that laptop manufacturers will go for a higher value in exchange for higher performance. These values are fairly low, meaning at least a few passively cooled designs are to be expected.
The CPU is built with Intel's 3rd generation 10 nm process marketed as SuperFin for decent, as of late 2022, energy efficiency.
The Intel Core i7-1180G7 is a power-efficient quad-core SoC for laptops and Ultrabooks based on the Tiger Lake-U generation (UP4) that was introduced in early 2021. It integrates four Willow Cove processor cores (8 threads thanks to Hyper-Threading). The guaranteed base clock speed depends on the TDP setting and can range from 0.9 (7 W TDP) to 2.2 GHz (15 W TDP). The Turbo clock speed is specified at 4.6 GHz for one core, all cores can reach up to 3.7 GHz.
Another novelty is the integrated Xe graphics card with 96EUs based on the completely new Gen 12 architecture. It offers a significantly higher performance compared to the older Iris Plus G7 (Ice Lake). The GPU and CPU can together use the 12 MB of L3 cache.
Furthermore, Tiger Lake SoCs add PCIe 4 support (four lanes), AI hardware acceleration, and the partial integration of Thunderbolt 4 / USB 4 and Wi-Fi 6 in the chip. The i5-1140G7 also supports the management feature vPro.
The chip is produced on the improved 10nm process (called SuperFin) at Intel that should be comparable to the 7nm process at TSMC (e.g. Ryzen 4000 series).
The operating range of the UP4 series is specified at 7 to 15 Watt. Therefore, the processor is well suited for very thin and light laptops, convertibles or tablets.
