Core i5-7600 quad-core desktop processor

The Core i5-7600 is a 7th Generation Intel desktop CPU with four cores and four threads. It runs at a base frequency of 3.5 GHz and can reach a maximum turbo frequency of 4.1 GHz. The processor includes Intel HD Graphics 630 with a base frequency of 350 MHz and a maximum dynamic frequency of 1.15 GHz. It is built for LGA 1151 socket motherboards and has a 65 W thermal design power.

DDR4-2400 and DDR3L-1600 dual-channel memory limit

Memory support is limited to DDR4 at 2133 or 2400 MT/s and DDR3L at 1333 or 1600 MT/s running at 1.35 V. The integrated memory controller provides two channels. PCI Express connectivity is restricted to revision 3.0. The integrated graphics can drive a maximum display resolution of 4096 x 2304. Operating system support from the manufacturer is stated as Windows 10 only.

LGA 1151 installation with standard cooler included

The boxed processor ships with a stock cooler that mounts directly onto the LGA 1151 socket using push-pin fasteners. Apply a pea-sized amount of thermal paste if the pre-applied pad is missing or damaged. Ensure the motherboard BIOS is updated to a version that supports 7th Generation Kaby Lake CPUs before installation. Bent socket pins on the motherboard are the most common cause of a no-post condition.

Questions about this item

Should I pick the 3.5 GHz base or the 4.1 GHz turbo version of the Core i5-7600?

The Core i5-7600 is a single model; it runs at 3.5 GHz base and can reach 4.1 GHz max turbo automatically when thermal headroom allows.

What does the 3.5 GHz base clock actually deliver in a built system?

Four Kaby Lake cores at 3.5 GHz give solid single-thread speed for everyday tasks and light gaming, with turbo up to 4.1 GHz for short bursts.

How does the PCI Express 3.0 interface limit graphics-card bandwidth?

The CPU provides PCIe 3.0 lanes, so a discrete GPU is capped to Gen 3 bandwidth rather than newer Gen 4 or Gen 5 speeds.
