Intel · Pentium G · 2015 · LGA1151
The Intel Pentium G4520 is a desktop processor with 2 cores, released in 2015 at an MSRP of $86. It is part of the Pentium G lineup, using the Pentium G platform, and fits the LGA1151 socket. Internally, it is built on the "Skylake" architecture. It operates at a fixed 3.6 GHz. Intel manufactures the "Skylake" silicon on a 14nm process node. Its multiplier is locked, so any overclocking has to come from raising the base clock rather than the multiplier. This processor supports DDR4 memory. With a TDP of 51W, the Pentium G4520 is an efficient chip suitable for modest cooling solutions. Integrated graphics are provided by the Intel HD Graphics 510 solution, so a discrete GPU is not required for display output. The cache hierarchy consists of 32KB/core of L1, 256KB/core of L2, and 3MB of L3 cache.
