Intel Celeron 6305

The Intel Celeron 6305 (or 6305U) is a power efficient dual-core SoC for laptops and Ultrabooks based on the Tiger Lake-U generation that was announced in the third quarter of 2020. It integrates only two Willow Cove processor cores (2 threads as no HyperThreading/SMT). The clock speed is set at 1.8 GHz as the chip does not support Turbo Boost. Thanks to the architectural improvements of the CPU cores, the Celeron 6305 should still be faster than the old Comet Lake-U based Celeron 5205U (1.9 GHz, no Turbo).

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 UHD Graphics G1 (Ice Lake). In the 6305U Intel calls it just UHD Graphics and it offers 48 EUs.

Other improvements from Ice Lake should be also integrated in Tiger Lake like the AI hardware acceleration and the partial integration of Thunderbolt and Wifi 6 in the chip.

The chip is produced on the improved 10nm+ process (called 10 nm SuperFin) at Intel that should be comparable to the 7nm process at TSMC (e.g. Ryzen 4000 series).
