The Intel Core i3-1110G4 is a power-efficient dual-core SoC for laptops and Ultrabooks based on the Tiger Lake-U generation (UP4) that was launched in September 2020. It integrates two Willow Cove processor cores (4 threads thanks to HyperThreading). Each core can clock from 1.5 GHz (base speed at 7 Watt TDP setting) to 3.9 GHz (single- and dual-core boost). With 15 Watt TDP (cTDP-up) the base speed is 2.5 GHz.
Another novelty is the integrated Xe graphics card based on the completely new Gen 12 architecture. The i3 integrates the low end UHD Graphics G4 with 48 of the 96 EUs enabled and a clock speed of 400 - 1100 MHz. The GPU and CPU can together use the 6 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 1110G4 in our database is in the same league as the Celeron N5105, as far as multi-thread benchmark scores are concerned. This is the kind of performance that entry-level chips deliver, as of late 2023.
Your mileage may vary depending on how competent the cooling solution of your system is and how high the CPU power limits are.
Power consumption
Intel Core i3-1110G4 has a default TDP (also known as the long-term Power Limit) of 7 W to 15 W, the expectation being that laptop manufacturers will go for a higher value in exchange for higher performance. This Core i3 is built with the 3rd generation 10 nm process marketed as SuperFin making for decent, as of mid-2022, energy efficiency.
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.
