CoresFour P-cores and no E-cores; Hyper-Threading supported.Eight cores without Hyper-Threading; Intel Turbo Boost 2.0 supported.
ClocksCPU multiplier locked (Intel support). Current Intel specifications list 110 W maximum turbo power; the January 2023 maker launch table and Tom's Hardware list 89 W. ComputerBase also reports 110 W.Maximum turbo is a single-core frequency; sustained clocks depend on cooling and motherboard power settings. Intel's current specification page publishes TDP without a separate maximum turbo-power figure.
