INTEL Core I9 11900 11th Generation Processor ( 5.2 GHz / 8 Cores / 16 Threads )

Product Description

Intel Core i9-11900 11th Generation Processor Features

The Intel Core i9-11900 is a high-performance desktop CPU released in March 2021, part of Intel’s 11th Gen Core lineup. Built on the Rocket Lake-S architecture and designed for Socket 1200, this processor features 8 cores and 16 threads thanks to Intel Hyper-Threading, allowing it to handle multiple tasks simultaneously for enhanced performance.

Operating at a base clock speed of 2.5 GHz, the i9-11900 can turbo boost up to 5.2 GHz depending on the workload, offering a significant increase in performance when needed. The CPU comes equipped with 16 MB of L3 cache, ensuring fast data access and improved efficiency.

Manufactured using a 14 nm production process, the i9-11900 is not unlocked for overclocking, limiting the potential for frequency adjustments. With a TDP of 65W, it offers balanced power consumption suitable for most modern PC builds.

Key Features:

• 8 Cores / 16 Threads: Provides solid multi-tasking and parallel processing capabilities.
• Base Clock Speed: 2.5 GHz, with turbo boost capabilities up to 5.2 GHz for demanding tasks.
• 16 MB L3 Cache: Enhances data access speed for improved processing efficiency.
• PCI-Express Gen 4 Support: Enables faster data transfer between the CPU and other components, improving system performance.
• UHD Graphics 750: Integrated graphics solution for light gaming, media consumption, and everyday tasks (dedicated GPU recommended for more demanding workloads).
• DDR4 Memory Support: Compatible with dual-channel DDR4 memory, with an official maximum supported memory speed of 3200 MT/s (higher speeds can be achieved with overclocking and suitable memory modules).
• Hardware Virtualization Support: Improves performance for virtual machines with support for IOMMU (PCI passthrough), allowing virtual machines to access host hardware directly.
• Advanced Vector Extensions (AVX, AVX2, AVX-512): Optimizes performance for calculation-intensive applications like scientific computing, 3D rendering, and other workloads that utilize AVX instructions.

Additional Information:

The Intel Core i9-11900 is designed to deliver solid performance for both gaming and productivity tasks, though it is not as unlocked as other models in the Core i9 range. With support for Intel Turbo Boost Technology and the latest PCI-Express Gen 4 for faster communication, it provides a powerful solution for users who need strong single-threaded performance and good multitasking capabilities. Whether for workstations, content creation, or gaming, the i9-11900 offers solid performance, though users looking for maximum overclocking potential may prefer other unlocked variants.
