What Is the Intel Celeron N5105?
The Intel Celeron N5105 is a mobile processor with 4 cores. It uses the Tremont architecture and the BGA 1338 package. The processor has 4 MB of L3 cache. Its base clock is 2.0 GHz, and it boosts up to 2.9 GHz depending on the workload. Intel's Jasper Lake series includes the N5105, and the chip was announced in early 2021.
Key Specifications
The N5105 is a quad-core, four-thread-per-core-free design with a focus on low power use. Its key specifications are:
-
Cores: 4
-
Architecture: Tremont
-
Base clock: 2.0 GHz
-
Maximum boost clock: 2.9 GHz
-
L3 cache: 4 MB
-
Package: BGA 1338
Typical Use Cases
The N5105 is built for entry-level desktop systems, compact PCs, and light office work such as web browsing, document editing, and video playback. It suits fanless and small-form-factor designs where power draw and heat must stay low. For heavier workloads such as multi-threaded rendering, virtualization, or data analysis, a processor with more cores and cache is the better choice.
