INTEL Core i7 9700F 9th Generation Processor ( 4.7 GHz / 8 Cores / 8 Threads )

Product Description

The Intel Core i7-9700F is a powerful 9th Generation desktop processor, launched in April 2019, designed to deliver exceptional performance for gaming, content creation, and productivity tasks. Featuring 8 cores and a base clock speed of 3.0 GHz, this processor can turbo boost up to 4.7 GHz depending on the workload, making it an excellent choice for demanding applications.

With 12MB of L3 cache and built on Intel’s 14nm Coffee Lake Refresh architecture, the i7-9700F offers robust multi-core performance. It has a TDP of 65W, which ensures efficient power consumption for modern PCs. While it supports DDR4 memory with speeds up to 2666 MT/s, overclocking with compatible memory modules can push performance even further. The processor also uses PCI-Express Gen 3 for high-speed communication with other system components.

A standout feature of the i7-9700F is its support for Intel® Turbo Boost Technology 2.0, which enhances responsiveness for demanding tasks, including gaming, 4K UHD video editing, and rendering. However, it’s important to note that the i7-9700F lacks integrated graphics, so a discrete GPU is required for video output.

This processor also supports advanced virtualization features, such as Intel® VT-x and IOMMU virtualization (PCI passthrough), which optimize performance for virtual machines and allow direct access to host hardware. In addition, it supports Intel® Advanced Vector Extensions (AVX) and AVX2, which accelerate performance in calculation-heavy workloads like scientific computing or 3D rendering.

The Intel Core i7-9700F comes with a 3-year warranty, ensuring peace of mind and long-term reliability.
