We are only weeks away from the official announcement of the Raptor Lake Refresh processors, which will come with an optimized Intel 7 manufacturing process, and thanks to that, slightly higher clocks. We already know practically everything about them, but a small surprise is that they will also come with a new Lowend chip, which according to leaker chi11eddog will be called simply Intel 300.
It will be the successor to the Pentia Gold G7400 from the Alder Lake generation. It will offer two P cores, and thus also four-thread processing, 6 MB L3 cache, a frequency of 3.9 GHz and a 46W TDP. It also belongs to the LGA 1700 platform, but no one can understand it as an upgrade from the G7400 due to its slightly higher performance (an extra 200 MHz).
Intel 300 will only be an attempt by the manufacturer to sell junk processors that do not match the parameters for Core i5 or i3, and thus have disabled computing units. This chip will be interesting only from a historical point of view. It will be the definitive end of Pentiums and Celerons on the desktop.
For mobile chips, the company has already given up these brands, the processors released this year bearing the designation N100 and N200 have four “atomic” E cores. Intel will also gradually get rid of the Core brand.
