Six-core Sandy Bridge-E processor

The Intel Core i7-3930K is a desktop CPU built on the 32nm Sandy Bridge-E architecture. It delivers six cores with Hyper-Threading support for twelve threads. Base clock runs at 3.2GHz with a maximum turbo frequency of 3.8GHz. This chip targets workstations and enthusiasts who need strong multi-threaded performance.

LGA 2011 socket and 130W thermal design

The processor fits the LGA 2011 socket and carries a 130W TDP, so a capable cooler is essential. No cooling device is included in the box. An integrated four-channel DDR3 memory controller supports high bandwidth for memory-intensive workloads. The 12MB L3 cache and six 256KB L2 caches help reduce latency across cores.

Check motherboard chipset and cooler clearance

Verify that your motherboard uses a compatible LGA 2011 chipset and BIOS revision for this CPU. Ensure the cooler you choose is rated for at least 130W and clears surrounding components. Confirm the power supply can deliver sufficient current for the platform. Memory must be DDR3 to match the integrated controller.
