Intel Core i7 10700KF 8-core LGA1200
An unlocked 5.1GHz boost clock and 8-core, 16-thread design on the 14nm Comet Lake architecture provide strong multi-threaded performance for its class. The lack of integrated graphics keeps the focus purely on raw CPU power, making it a cost-effective choice for builders with a dedicated GPU. This processor is best for budget-conscious gamers and streamers who need high frame rates without paying for unused onboard video.
