What it is
Our main score for this model, 1–10. It combines specs, expert reviews, best-of lists and owners.
How we count it
Parts: Technical score 40%, Reviews score 25%, List score 25%, Sentiment score 10%
Marks: Each part gets a mark out of 10. For reviews, lists and owners, a typical model in this category gets about 8 and the best one gets 10.
No data yet: A part with no data shows "?". It counts as the mark of a weaker model in this category (4 in 5 models with data score higher). This way, models with reviews, lists and owners usually come out ahead.

What it is
Average grade from independent test sites, magazines and video reviewers, 1–10.
How we count it
Grades: Each review's own score is converted to 1–10; without one, we grade the review ourselves. Big test sites count more, short reviews half as much as full tests. A video review counts half.
Score: The average grade is 80% of the review mark; the number of reviews is the other 20% (1 review = 5, the typical number in this category = 8, the most-reviewed model = 10).
Enough data: With few reviews, the average grade is pulled toward the typical grade of this category. No reviews yet: 7.2 for now.

    • Supports Error-Correcting Code (ECC) memory, which is a rare and valuable feature for embedded or scientific computing
    • Cost-effective choice for basic computing tasks such as web browsing, word processing, and 1080p media playback
    • Improved responsiveness and performance when paired with an SSD and DDR3L RAM
    • Higher maximum operating temperature (up to 105°C) compared to some desktop counterparts, increasing reliability in restricted environments

    What customers don't like about Intel Celeron 1047UE

    • Limited multitasking capabilities due to only having 2 cores and 2 threads without Hyper-Threading
    • Slow clock speed (1.4 GHz) and lack of Turbo Boost results in poor performance for modern 3D gaming or heavy applications
    • Reduced feature set compared to Core-series processors, with key technologies like AES-NI and Quick Sync often deactivated
    • Relatively small L3 cache (2 MB) which acts as a bottleneck for data-intensive processing
    • Outdated architecture (Ivy Bridge) that is no longer competitive with newer entry-level processors in speed or efficiency

    Verdict

    The Intel Celeron 1047UE is an ultra-low voltage, dual-core mobile processor launched in Q1 2013, specifically designed for embedded systems and small form factor devices. Built on the 22nm Ivy Bridge architecture, it features a base clock frequency of 1.40 GHz, 2 MB of Intel Smart Cache, and a low Thermal Design Power (TDP) of 17W. Its main pros include energy efficiency, support for up to 16 GB of DDR3/DDR3L memory at 1600 MHz, and the rare inclusion of ECC memory support for a Celeron chip, which enhances data reliability. However, its primary cons are limited performance due to the lack of Intel Turbo Boost and Hyper-Threading technologies, as well as the deactivation of advanced features like Quick Sync Video, AES instructions, and VT-d virtualization.
