Intel Core i9-10900X 10-Core 3.7 GHz LGA 2066 165W cpu accessory

Intel Core i9-10900X Desktop Processor

The Intel Core i9-10900X is a 10-core desktop processor built on 14nm Cascade Lake architecture. It operates at a 3.7 GHz base frequency with a 165W TDP and fits the LGA 2066 socket. The chip includes 19.25MB of Intel Smart Cache and supports Windows 11. It is intended for high-end desktop platforms.

Suited for creators needing core count

This processor suits content creators and freelancers who rely on up to 48 PCI Express 3.0 lanes for multiple GPUs and add-in cards. Quad-channel DDR4-2933 memory support allows up to 256GB capacity. Buyers who need higher core counts up to 18 cores or 36 threads should consider other models in the X-series stack.

10 cores at 3.7 GHz base with 165W TDP

The decisive specification is the 10-core configuration running at a 3.7 GHz base clock within a 165W thermal envelope. This core count and power level define the cooling and motherboard requirements. Intel Turbo Boost Max Technology 3.0 can lift speeds to 4.8 GHz on the fastest cores for lightly threaded workloads.
