Intel Core i9-12900K 2.40GHz 30MB s1700 BX8071512900K | PROCESSORS

Intel Core i9-12900KF processor, 12th generation Intel Core i9 2.40GHz, suitable for Desktop PC, with size 7nm, Dual-channel, 128GB maximum supported memory DDR4-SDRAM, DDR5-SDRAM, ideal for gaming and creating content creation!

The Intel Core i9 12900 processor is based on the Alder Lake (12th Gen) (2022) microarchitecture. It has 16 cores with 24 threads. More cores give increased power to programs that take advantage of the presence of more cores. Threads allow the processor to run multiple applications simultaneously making tasks faster. Its maximum frequency is 5.1 GHz.

The Cache memory it integrates is 30 MB. Cache memory is a very important feature as the larger it is, the less time is required for the processor to retrieve data from the computers central memory, which significantly increases performance.

It has the Socket 1700 and will need to be hosted on a motherboard of the corresponding Socket. Finally, a heatsink is included in the box. You wont need to buy a separate one unless you want the best possible cooling for your processor, especially under overclocking conditions.

Core i9 12900 is usually chosen by users for demanding Gaming, for heavy applications that take full advantage of the multi-thread capability of the processor, for CAD, image, video and audio processing. It also has integrated graphics circuitry that can be used for light gaming in case your system doesnt have a more powerful discrete graphics card.

Alder Lake (12th Gen) microarchitecture processors are designed to maximize performance in single-threaded applications such as gaming and 3D Design. Multithreaded performance is also offered for applications that take full advantage of parallel processing (such as image rendering).

A new technology is introduced as they integrate the Performance and Efficient cores into one chip. The former emphasize performance and the latter, better efficiency in conditions of lower power and lower speed. The two types can work seamlessly with the operating system as Intel built the Intel Thread Director directly into the hardware. Simply put, by automatically monitoring and analyzing real-time power needs at any given moment, Intel Thread Director guides the operating system, helping it use processor cores efficiently and where they are needed. All of this is done dynamically, adjusting the above work based on actual computing needs, not based on static rules.

12th Gen Intel Core processors support new discrete graphics and storage technologies by taking advantage of the increased performance that comes with PCIe 5.0 as well as the higher speeds and bandwidth of DDR5 memory.

Another standard feature of 12th Gen Intel Core processors: Intel Wi-Fi 6E (Gig+). Intel Wi-Fi 6E lets you enjoy nearly 3x faster connectivity without interference. This means more freedom to work from home or even relax with ultra-smooth high-quality streaming.

You can also connect your PC to multiple 4K displays and other accessories, all with one cable. The 12th Gen Intel Core processor family introduces Thunderbolt 4, the simplest, fastest and most reliable port available to date.

12th Gen Intel Core processors enable features such as noise reduction, auto-framing, and bandwidth and resolution optimization during gameplay.

It also offers a completely new viewing experience in up to 8K resolution, with 4x4K HDR, which allows users to connect up to four HDR displays simultaneously. It also features Dolby Vision HDR + Dolby Atmos 3D Sound for ultra-smooth video streaming.

As for professionals, they can design and create complex files in stunning detail and output 4K files quickly and easily with Intels new low-power AI Matrix Engine. Additionally, they will notice impressive encoding performance
