Intel Core i7 X i7-9800X Octa-core (8 Core) 3.80 GHz Processor

The Core i7-9800X 3.8 GHz Eight-Core LGA 2066 Processor from Intel has a base clock speed of 3.8 GHz and comes with features such as Intel Optane Memory and SSD support, AES-NI encryption, Intel vPro technology, Intel TXT, and Intel VT-d virtualization technology for directed I/O. This processor features a boost speed of up to 4.4 GHz, or up to 4.5 GHz with Intel Turbo Boost Max 3.0 technology. Additionally, this processor features 8 cores with 16 threads in an LGA 2066 socket, has 16.5MB of cache memory, and supports up to 44 PCIe lanes. Having 8 cores allows the processor to run multiple programs simultaneously without slowing down the system, while the 16 threads allow a basic ordered sequence of instructions to be passed through or processed by a single CPU core. This processor also supports DDR4 RAM and utilizes 9th-generation technology. Graphically, the Core i7-9800X does not contain any integrated graphics, which means that users will need to purchase a compatible dedicated GPU of their choice. If you need even more performance, this processor is unlocked, which lets you overclock the processor over its maximum speed. However, this is not recommended, as it will void the limited 3-year warranty. Please note that this processor does not include a heatsink or fan and requires a separately-sold CPU cooling solution.
