Intel Core i5-7600K OEM desktop processor

This unlocked quad-core processor runs at a 3.8 GHz base frequency with a maximum turbo of 4.2 GHz. It is built for the LGA 1151 socket and includes Intel HD Graphics 630 for display output. The 91W thermal design suits enthusiasts who want overclocking headroom without a bundled cooler.

Compatibility checks before ordering

Verify that your motherboard uses the LGA 1151 socket and supports 7th generation Intel Core processors. Confirm the board BIOS version enables Kaby Lake CPUs and that your power delivery can sustain a 91W TDP under load. Ensure your chosen memory kit matches the DDR4 or DDR3L standards supported by the memory controller.

What the bundle changes

This OEM unit ships without a retail box or stock cooler, so you must supply your own thermal solution. The unlocked multiplier allows manual frequency scaling for higher performance in compute-heavy tasks. Integrated Intel HD Graphics 630 drives displays up to 4096 x 2304 resolution without a discrete graphics card.

Questions about this item

Does the i5-7600K OEM include a cooler or retail packaging?

The OEM listing specifies the processor only. No stock cooler, retail box or installation hardware is included; a compatible LGA 1151 cooler must be purchased separately.

Should I pair the i5-7600K with DDR4 or DDR3L memory?

The processor supports both DDR4 and DDR3L. Select the type that matches your motherboard's memory slots; mixing types is not possible on a single board.

What does the 4.2 GHz Max Turbo Frequency mean for daily workloads?

4.2 GHz is the highest single-core speed the CPU can reach under thermal and power limits. Sustained all-core speeds will sit near the 3.8 GHz base clock depending on cooling and motherboard power delivery.
