Description
The Intel 12th Generation Core i7-12700KF CPU is a high-performance processor designed for gamers, creators, streamers, and everyday users. It features a hybrid architecture with both Performance-cores and Efficient-cores, providing a unique combination of single-thread performance and multithreaded performance. The processor also supports PCIe 5.0 and DDR5 memory, allowing for faster connectivity and increased bandwidth. It has 12 cores, 20 threads, and a maximum turbo frequency of 5.00GHz. Other features include Intel Thread Director for optimized scheduling, Intel Turbo Boost Max Technology 3.0, and support for Intel Optane Memory. The processor is built for serious gaming and offers an excellent overclocking experience. It also has advanced features such as Intel Deep Learning Boost and Intel Virtualization Technology.
Take the next evolutionary leap with the performance hybrid architecture of 12th Generation Intel Core processors. Get the performance you need, where you need it, whether youre a gamer, creator, streamer, or everyday user. Whatever youre into, do more of it, whenever you want with Intel 12 Generation processors. With unprecedented new performance hybrid architecture, 12th Gen Intel Core processors offer a unique combination of Performance and Efficient-cores (P-core and E-core). That means real-world performance, intuitively scaled to match whatever youre doing.
The Performance-core is Intels highest-performing CPU core ever. And its designed to maximize single-thread performance and responsiveness for compute-intensive workloads like gaming and 3D design. The Efficient-core delivers multithreaded performance for tasks that can run in parallel (like image rendering), along with efficient offload of background tasks for modern multitasking.
So that Performance-cores and Efficient-cores can work seamlessly with the operating system, Intel built Intel Thread Director right into the hardware. Automatically monitoring and analyzing on-the-fly, Intel Thread Director guides the operating system, helping it place the right thread on the right core, at the right time. And it does it all dynamically, adapting scheduling guidance based on actual computing needs, not on static rules.
12th Gen Intel Core processors also support the next wave of discrete graphics cards and storage devices. These devices take advantage of increased throughput coming with PCIe 5.0 as well the higher speeds and bandwidth of DDR5 memory. With 12th Gen Intel Core processors, standard, built-in features enable capabilities like noise suppression, auto-framing, and optimization for bandwidth and video resolution while gaming. That saves you time and lets you multitask in ways youve only ever dreamed of, until now. From epic gaming to browsing to streaming to creating your next masterpiece, 12th Gen Intel Core processors make it all entirely doable.
