Overview

New hybrid architecture for optimum performance

With the Alder Lake processors, Intel is bringing about a minor revolution in the world of x86 architecture by adopting a hybrid technology based on 2 different types of cores assembled within the same chip: Performance-Cores and Efficient-Cores. With more cores and more power, 12th-generation Intel processors are ready for next-generation games, PCI-Express 5.0 graphics cards and DDR5 RAM.

Intel Core i7-12700KF 12-Core (8P+4E)

  • Processor 12 Cores / 20 Threads
  • 8 Performance-Cores (3.6 GHz - 5.0 GHz) + 4 Efficient-Cores (2.7 GHz - 3.8 GHz)
  • 25 MB L3 cache + 12 MB L2 cache
  • Unlocked (multiplier coefficient unlocked for overclocking)
  • IGP: None
  • Memory controller: DDR4 / DDR5
  • PCI-E 5.0 compatible
  • TDP: 125W
  • Max. TDP (Turbo Power): 190W

Cores at work

Intel's new high-performance hybrid architecture integrates two families of cores into a single processor for an even smoother gaming experience. Intel Thread Director prioritises and manages workloads by determining which core is best suited to each task. Performance cores are designed for unique, low-thread count workloads, enhancing activities such as video gaming or productivity tasks. Efficiency cores are optimised for multi-threading, reducing interruptions from secondary tasks.

Reach new heights

Thanks to high frequencies, you can achieve high performance in games. Take on your opponents with confidence or explore new worlds thanks to a revolutionary processor architecture that focuses on the essentials. 12th generation Intel processors are simply designed for the new generation of video games.

Information provided by our tech department Processor in tray version supplied without cooling system (to be purchased separately). A cooling system capable of supporting 190 Watts or more is essential to get the best performance from this processor. This processor, like all those in the F series, has no integrated graphics chipset (Intel UHD Graphics). The graphics outputs on your motherboard will therefore be inoperative. The use of a dedicated graphics card will be mandatory to benefit from a display .
