* Game without compromise. Play harder and work smarter with Intel Core 14th Gen processors | |||
* 24 cores (8 P-cores + 16 E-cores) and 32 threads. Integrated Intel UHD Graphics 770 included | |||
* Leading max clock speed of up to 6.0 GHz gives you smoother game play, higher frame rates, and rapid responsiveness | |||
* Compatible with Intel 600-series (with potential BIOS update) or 700-series chipset-based motherboards | |||
* DDR4 and DDR5 platform support cuts your load times and gives you the space to run the most demanding games | |||
