Intel Core i3-1315U (13th Gen) Laptop Processor

The 13th Generation Intel Core i3-1315U is a lower-mid-range laptop processor released in 2023. Although it’s not as fast as the i5-1335U and i7-1355U from the same 13th Gen U family, the more affordable i3-1315U option is great for the daily home and office tasks. In these routine tasks, the difference between the i3 and i5, and i7 isn’t big. They can handle the regular duties with ease. But, the i5, i7 and other more powerful processors, especially those from the higher performance P and H series, are noticeably faster in heavier operations like high-resolution video editing.
The Core i3-1315U also lags behind in terms of graphics processing and therefore gaming performance. It features the Intel UHD integrated graphics, which is weaker than the Intel Iris Xe of the Core i5 and i7. However, both of these graphics processors are entry-level, meaning they are suitable only for light gaming.
The main AMD’s competitor against the Intel Core i3-1315U is the AMD Ryzen 3 7330U.

Girish –
The laptop fan starts on startup. Is it OK?

On laptop PCs I used, the fan starts on startup at a high spinning speed, but after Windows is booted up the fan speed decreases. I assume this change in speed is due to fan speed optimization in Windows, which isn’t available before Windows boots up.
