Intel Core i3-12100F Processor

Description

Intel Core i3-12100F is an Alder Lake desktop processor for the LGA1700 socket. It has four Performance-cores and eight threads, a 3.30 GHz base frequency, and automatic boost up to 4.30 GHz. Intel Smart Cache capacity is 12 MB. Processor Base Power is 58 W and Maximum Turbo Power is 89 W. The dual-channel controller supports up to 128 GB of DDR5-4800 or DDR4-3200 memory; the motherboard determines the memory generation, and DDR4 and DDR5 cannot be used together. The processor provides up to 20 PCIe lanes: PCIe 5.0 for a graphics card and PCIe 4.0 for a fast storage device. The F suffix means there is no integrated graphics, so a discrete graphics card is required for display output.
