Intel Core i9 X i9-7900X Deca-core (10 Core) 3.30 GHz Processor

The Intel Core i9-7900X LGA 2066 Processor provides computing performance for a desktop system by offering ten cores, which operate at a stock speed of 3.3 GHz, for editing videos, composing soundtracks, and other demanding workloads. These ten cores can achieve a maximum turbo frequency of up to 4.3 GHz while running intensive tasks, and the best performing cores can run at speeds of up to 4.5 GHz utilizing Intel Turbo Boost Max Technology 3.0. The Core i9-7900X is equipped with Intel Hyper-Threading technology that enables each core to handle two instruction threads, providing the ability to handle up to twenty threads. If you need even more performance, this Skylake-X processor is unlocked, which lets you overlock the processor over its maximum speed. This Core X-series processor does not include a heatsink or fan and requires a sold-separately CPU cooling solution to function at these levels of performance. Aside from processing power, the Core i9-7900X provides 44 PCI Express 3.0 lanes to multiple graphics cards and PCIe-based M.2 SSDs. The processor is compatible with motherboards offering an LGA 2066 socket and has an average power requirement of 140W. When installed in a motherboard, the processor supports DDR4 2666 MHz memory modules, running in a quad-, dual-, or single-channel configuration. In addition, a total amount of 13.75MB L3 cache memory is available for its ten cores.
