Intel's 12th Gen Alder Lake lineup was recently expanded with a range of entry-level options including Pentium and Celeron CPUs. One of these chips has shown up within the Geekbench benchmark and offers some really interesting performance numbers.

As far as specifications are concerned, the Intel Celeron G6900 features two cores & two threads, based on the 10nm ESF Golden Cove core architecture. As you can tell, it's a very entry-level dual-core processor with a clock speed of up to 3.4 GHz. The CPU carries 4 MB of L3 cache and 2.5 MB L2 cache within a 46W TDP package. Being an entry-level design, the chip will cost just $42 US and could be used for entry-level eSports gaming titles and standard office workloads.
