AMD E2-3000

The AMD E2-3000 is a mobile processor from AMD’s Kabini generation, built on the Jaguar architecture. It is manufactured by GlobalFoundries on a 28 nm process with a 107 mm² die. It uses AMD Socket FT3, was released on May 22, 2013, and its production status is end-of-life. The chip has two cores and two threads, a base clock of 1650.00 MHz, no boost clock, 64 KB of L1 cache per core, and 1 MB of shared L2 cache. Its integrated graphics are Radeon HD 8280. The database contains no benchmark records for this processor, so what follows is based on the specifications and positional fields in the FACT PACK.

Benchmark Performance

The benchmark array in the FACT PACK is empty. The average benchmark score is 0, but with no entries in the benchmark list, that 0 is not the product of any recorded workload run. The percentile versus all CPUs is 50, which places the processor at the median of the database’s reference distribution, but this percentile is not supported by a measured score. It is a positional value rather than a tested performance summary.

The nearestRivals array is also empty. No rival names, no rival scores, and no deltaPct values are available. As a result, exact percentage deltas cannot be reported. The data cannot say that the E2-3000 is a certain percentage ahead of or behind any other processor. This is an important limitation: the usual benchmark comparison framework does not exist for this chip in the database.

The only quantitative performance-related information in the FACT PACK is structural. The processor has two cores and two threads, a 1650.00 MHz base clock, no boost clock, 64 KB L1 per core, 1 MB shared L2, single-channel DDR3 memory with 12.8 GB/s bandwidth, and Radeon HD 8280 integrated graphics. Those figures define the envelope of the processor, but they are not benchmark scores. A user looking for a measured performance ranking will not find one in the data. The absence of benchmark data is itself the key result of this section.

How It Compares

The nearestRivals field contains no entries. There are no rival processor names, no rival scores, and no deltaPct values in the FACT PACK. Because of that, there is no nearest rival to profile in separate paragraphs. The only comparison anchor in the database is the 50th percentile versus all CPUs. That number places the E2-3000 in the middle of the all-CPU reference distribution, but with an average benchmark score of 0 and an empty benchmark array, the percentile is not anchored to any actual performance result.

This means the database defines no competitive field for the E2-3000. A normal comparison page would use nearestRivals to position the chip against its closest competition; here, that field is empty, so no such positioning is possible. No competitor-specific advantages or disadvantages can be stated. Any exact percentage comparison to another processor would have to come from outside the FACT PACK, and that is not included in this analysis. The only positional claim supported by the data is the all-CPU percentile of 50.

Platform and Compatibility

The platform is built around AMD Socket FT3. The architecture is Jaguar, and the codename is Kabini; the generation field in the FACT PACK records the part as E2 (Kabini). The die is produced by GlobalFoundries on a 28 nm process and measures 107 mm². No transistor count is listed, and no L3 cache is listed.

Memory support is DDR3 on a single-channel bus. The listed memory bandwidth is 12.8 GB/s. ECC memory is marked as supported in the FACT PACK. This makes the memory controller capable of ECC operation, although the data does not list specific ECC module configurations.

For expansion, the CPU provides PCIe Gen 2 with 8 lanes. The FACT PACK explicitly identifies these as CPU-only lanes. The integrated graphics block is Radeon HD 8280, so the processor includes a built-in GPU block. The market segment is mobile, which matches the low TDP and compact platform expectations. Production status is end-of-life, so no active upgrade path is recorded in the data. The multiplier is not unlocked, so the data does not support unlocked-frequency overclocking. The part number is EM3000IBJ23HM.

FAQ

Q: What socket does the AMD E2-3000 use?

A: AMD Socket FT3.

Q: How many cores and threads does it have?

A: Two cores and two threads. The base clock is 1650.00 MHz, and no boost clock is listed.

Q: What memory does the E2-3000 support?

A: It supports DDR3 memory on a single-channel bus, with 12.8 GB/s of memory bandwidth and ECC support.

Q: What is the cache hierarchy?

A: The cache is 64 KB L1 per core and 1 MB shared L2. No L3 cache is listed in the FACT PACK.

Q: Does the processor include integrated graphics?

A: Yes, the integrated graphics are Radeon HD 8280.

Q: What is the production status, and is the multiplier unlocked?

A: Production status is end-of-life, and the release date was May 22, 2013. The multiplier is not unlocked, so the processor is not presented as an unlocked-frequency part.

Power and Thermals

The TDP is 15 W. This is the only power figure in the FACT PACK. It places the E2-3000 in a low-power mobile class. The cooling tier implied by a 15 W TDP is light; a large or high-airflow cooler is not necessary for this heat envelope. The data does not list cooler specifications, thermal limits, or temperature measurements, so the thermal analysis stops at the TDP class.

The physical context is a GlobalFoundries 28 nm die measuring 107 mm². Those figures are the only manufacturing-level details relevant to thermal density in the FACT PACK. The mobile market segment reinforces the expectation of a compact thermal solution. In practical terms, a basic low-profile mobile cooling solution should fit the intended envelope, but the database does not name a specific cooler. The key number is 15 W, and the key implication is a modest heat load.

Single-Thread vs Multi-Thread Behavior

The base clock is 1650.00 MHz. No boost clock is listed, so the data records no higher frequency for single-thread bursts. For single-threaded work, the relevant facts are one Jaguar core operating at 1650.00 MHz, with 64 KB of L1 cache available to that core.

For multi-threaded work, the processor can run exactly two hardware threads. Because the core count is two and the thread count is two, there is no additional thread headroom. A workload that scales across cores can use both cores, but the hardware ceiling is two simultaneous threads. The 1 MB L2 cache is shared between the two cores, so the cache pool is common rather than split into a larger per-core pool.

The memory system is single-channel DDR3 with a listed bandwidth of 12.8 GB/s. That bandwidth may shape memory-heavy workloads, especially those that rely on multiple threads accessing memory at the same time. No recorded benchmark scores exist, so the single-thread versus multi-thread performance gap cannot be expressed as a percentage. What the data shows is a symmetric dual-thread design: two cores, two threads, no boost clock, and a cache hierarchy that stops at the shared L2. For real workloads, this means a ceiling of two execution threads and a single frequency figure of 1650.00 MHz. No higher advertised frequency is available, and no measured workload data is present to refine the picture.
