Processor performance

The Alder Lake architecture (12th generation) utilises high-performance cores. The processor runs at a base frequency of 2.5GHz. When needed, Intel Turbo Boost 2.0 technology automatically increases the clock speed up to 4.4GHz for demanding applications and games. An 18MB L3 cache and a 7.5MB L2 cache ensure a fast data supply to the cores.

Flexible memory and graphics support

The 6-core processor supports both DDR5 and DDR4 RAM. The chip includes integrated Intel UHD Graphics 730, which handles everyday operations and displays content without needing a separate graphics card. The processor comes with an Intel Laminar RM1 cooler. This cooler dissipates heat generated under standard loads, which means you don't need to install a separate cooling device right away. Installation into an Intel 1700 socket on a compatible motherboard is a standard procedure that any experienced PC builder can handle.

Intel Processors

Processor cores and threads

Processor cores function, to a certain extent, like individual processors, handling computational tasks independently of one another. The more physical cores a processor has, the more tasks it can process simultaneously. Threads can be described as separate virtual cores, which all modern processors have. An eight-core processor typically has sixteen threads, enabling it to process sixteen processes at once.
Intel Processors

Processor frequency

The operating frequency indicates the speed of the processor. Generally, a processor with a higher frequency can execute instructions faster than one with a lower frequency. A higher frequency ensures smoother and faster responses in everyday computer use, such as launching applications, browsing the internet, or editing documents. It ranges from 1 to 5GHz. Some CPUs feature a short-term frequency boost (Turbo Boost) under high load.
Intel processors

L2 and L3 cache

For a processor to work as fast as possible, it needs fast storage for temporary data. This is what the L2 and L3 cache, located directly on the processor, are for. While these memory caches are significantly smaller than RAM, they are also faster. L2 and L3 are the first storage areas the processor interacts with, and generally, the larger, the better.
Intel processors

Processor socket

Before you choose a new processor, you need to know which hardware connector (socket) your motherboard uses for it. The processor and motherboard must have the same socket designation; this is the first step to a functional build. Another important factor is the type of RAM. You should know what type of RAM you have.
Intel processors

TDP (Thermal Design Power)

TDP (Thermal Design Power) is a processor parameter that indicates the amount of heat it produces under maximum load, while also suggesting its energy consumption. A lower TDP means the processor consumes less power and generates less heat, which is ideal for laptops or energy-efficient systems. Conversely, processors with a high TDP offer higher performance but require advanced cooling to prevent overheating.
Intel processors

Processor cooling

A processor, much like a graphics card, generates heat during operation that needs to be dissipated to keep it cool. Some chip packages already include a cooler, but if you want to be absolutely sure you can handle the processor's heat output, get an external one. External processor coolers come in various sizes and performance levels, and many support stylish RGB backlighting. You can get either a classic air-cooled version or a modern water-cooled one.

Dobrý den je lepší grafika Intel uhd 730 nebo AMD Radeon graphics

Dobry den jakou základní desku pro tento procesor ?

Dobrý den. S-SPEC procesoru je .. SRL4V (CO),nebo SRL5Y (HO) ? Děkuji

Dobrý večer, mám dva dotazy: 1) Procesor podporuje 2 kanály a já mám v plánu kopit MB se 4mi sloty RAM v režimu Dual-Channel jestli se 4 sloty Dual-Channel berou jako 4 kanály nebo 2? 2) U procesorů neuvádíte podporovanou frekvenci pamětí RAM tak nevím jaká je u tohoto modelu?

Dobrý den, chtěl bych se zeptat, zdali je tento procesor dostačující pro grafickou kartu GAINWARD GeForce RTX 3060 TI (8 GB). https://www.alza.cz/gainward-geforce-rtx-3060-ti-ghost-lhr-d6243691.htm Předem děkuji. S pozdravem Adam Daniel

Dobrý den chci se zeptat zda s touto sestavou nebude problém nainstalovat windows11: CPU:Intel Core i5-12400 nbo Intel Core i5-12500--DESKA:ASUS PRIME Z690-P D4 nebo ASUS TUF GAMING Z690-PLUS D4--GRAFIKA:NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1050Ti--PAMĚTI:Corsair 16GB KIT DDR4 3200MHz CL16-18-18-36--DISK SSD:Samsung 970 PRO 512GB--ZDROJ:EVGA SuperNOVA 650 GA a zda to půjde i bez TPM Modul do základní desky. Předem děkuji.

Dobrý den, muzu se zeptat jestli by jste mi doporucili tento procesor do cca teto sestavy? https://www.alza.cz/nakupni-seznamy.htm?sharelist=79676B706C6966766

Intel 10400 ma TDP 65W. Tento CPU ma rovnaky pocet jadier, takt vyssi len o 0.1Ghz. Preco tak masivny narast v spotrebe?
