Key specifications
- 6 cores, 12 threads
- 3.7 GHz base, up to 4.6 GHz boost
- 32 MB L3, 3 MB L2
- 65 W TDP
- DDR4-3200 dual channel
- No integrated graphics — a discrete card is mandatory
- Wraith Stealth cooler included
Where it fits
Entry gaming builds and cost-led desktops that will take a graphics card. The one specification to check before quoting: with no iGPU, this part cannot be used in a machine shipped without a card — for those, specify the Intel parts in this category or a Ryzen G model.
Trade notes
BOX packaging with the Wraith Stealth cooler. Confirm the packaging code when ordering — the WOF variant of the same chip ships without a cooler at a different part number.
