Intel® Core™ i7-12th Generation Processor
Power up your productivity,
gaming, and content-creation experiences by installing the Intel Core
i7-12700F 2.1 GHz 12-Core LGA 1700 Processor into your desktop computer
system. Built using a Hybrid Core architecture with the Intel 7 process, this
12th generation desktop processor's 12 cores combine the performance of four
Efficient cores and eight 2.1 GHz Performance cores. The low-voltage Efficient
cores handle background tasks for multitasking while the Performance cores
provide speed for demanding applications and games. The built-in Intel Thread
Director ensures that the two work seamlessly together by dynamically and
intelligently assigning workloads to the right core at the right time to
maximize performance. Additionally, this processor has a 4.9 GHz Turbo Boost
Max 3.0 frequency with 25MB of cache for fast and reliable performance. The
Core i7-12700F also includes support for up to PCI Express 5.0 and dual-channel
DDR5 memory at 4800 MHz to help run and multitask a variety of demanding
applications.
