Intel Pentium G620 - The most popular processor

If we are to belive the list by CPU-World, the Pentium G620 is the most popular processor at the time of writing, surpassing the AMD's quad core P960 and AMD's Mobile P340 and the Pentium P6100 processors.

The Pentium G620 is a dual core processor cloccked at 2.6 GHz. The Pentium G620 is based upon the same architecture as the second generation Intel Core processors. It therefore resembles very closely to the second generation core i3 processor. The most noticeable difference with respect to the second generation Intel core i3 processor is the absence of Hyperthreading.





Pentium G620 has 3 MB of L3 Cache which is shared by the two processor cores as well as the integrated graphics. Aimed at the desktop sectio, the Pentium G620 has a TDP rating of 65 Watts. As all other second genration Sandy Bridge desktop processors, the dual core G620 processor will fit in LGA1155 Socket.

The communication with the chipset is using differential DMI Bus.

The benchmark results of the Intel Pentium G620 is awaited.
