Intel Core i5 Processor: Performance and Value
The price of an Intel Core i5 processor is not a single figure, as it is primarily sold as a component within complete computing systems. At Thinvent, we integrate the latest Intel Core i5 processors into our diverse range of Industrial PCs, Mini PCs, and embedded solutions. The final cost of a system is determined by the specific processor model (e.g., i5-1250P or Core 5 120U) combined with other critical specifications like RAM, storage, connectivity, and the chosen operating system. This modular approach allows us to provide exceptional value, tailoring performance and price precisely to your project's needs.
Our featured systems utilize two powerful 12th Generation Intel Core i5 variants: * Intel Core i5-1250P (12 cores, up to 4.4 GHz): A high-performance hybrid processor with 12 cores (4 Performance-cores + 8 Efficient-cores) ideal for demanding industrial automation, digital signage, and edge computing workloads that require sustained multi-threaded performance. * Intel Core 5 120U (10 cores, up to 5.0 GHz): An efficient 10-core (2 Performance-cores + 8 Efficient-cores) processor designed for excellent power efficiency and strong burst performance, perfect for compact fanless systems, kiosks, and thin clients where thermal management and responsiveness are key.
| Specification | Intel Core i5-1250P | Intel Core 5 120U |
|---|---|---|
| Total Cores (P-cores + E-cores) | 12 (4 + 8) | 10 (2 + 8) |
| Max Turbo Frequency | Up to 4.4 GHz | Up to 5.0 GHz |
| Cache | 12 MB Intel Smart Cache | 12 MB Intel Smart Cache |
| Typical Use Case | Heavy multitasking, data processing | Efficient, responsive everyday computing |
These processors are engineered for a wide spectrum of professional applications. From powering Industrial PC (IPC) lines for machine control and factory floor monitoring to running sleek Mini PCs for interactive digital signage and conference rooms, the i5 delivers reliable compute. Its balance of power and efficiency also makes it a cornerstone for IoT gateways, medical devices, and compact workstations, handling everything from multiple display outputs to complex operational software.
Thinvent Systems Featuring Intel Core i5 Processors
Thinvent leverages these advanced Intel Core i5 processors across our product families, engineered with reliability at our Indian manufacturing facilities for a global customer base. We offer extensive customization, allowing you to select the ideal combination of processor, memory (from 4GB to 64GB DDR4), storage (from 32GB MLC SSD to 1TB SSD), connectivity (with or without Dual-Band WiFi), and operating system (Windows 11 IoT/Pro or Ubuntu Linux) to match your exact technical requirements and budget.
Our Thinvent® Industrial PC IPC5 series, built for rugged environments, is available with both i5 processor options. For space-constrained deployments, the Thinvent® Aero Mini PC and Thinvent® Treo Mini PC offer the same professional-grade i5 power in ultra-compact form factors. Whether your priority is maximum core count for parallel tasks with the i5-1250P or higher clock speeds for snappy application response with the Core 5 120U, Thinvent provides a robust, scalable platform. This flexibility ensures you pay only for the capabilities you need, backed by our global support and manufacturing quality.
