Intel Core i7-10700F
Benchmarks & Specs

Last updated:
As you can see from the "F" at the end of the Intel Core i7-10700F processor name, this is a processor without an integrated graphics unit. Thus, a dedicated graphics card is required if you decide to use this processor. This graphics card can then be controlled via the 16 existing PCI Express lanes of type 3.0.

The Intel Core i7-10700F from the 10th generation of the Core i7 series has a total of 8 physical cores and also supports hyperthreading technology. This technology turns the 8 physical cores into 16 logical cores when required, so more computing operations can be executed at once. The 8 physical cores have a base clock frequency of 2.90 gigahertz. The maximum Turbo clock rate is up to 4.80 Gigahertz, but this is only reached when a single core is fully utilized, but the frequency is still a high 4.60 Gigahertz when all cores are utilized. Unfortunately, you cant overclock the Intel Core i7-10700F, this is reserved for the Intel Core i7-10700K or the Intel Core i7-10700KF.

The Intel Core i7-10700F can handle up to 128 gigabytes of RAM via the 2 available memory channels. DDR4 modules with a clock rate of up to 2933 megahertz are supported. Working memories with automatic error correction (ECC working memory) are not supported by the Intel Core i7-10700F.

The processor supports AES-NI encryption and the following virtualization technologies: VT-x, VT-x EPT, VT-d.

The 14-nanometer Intel Core i7-10700F is based on Intels Comet Lake architecture and was launched by Intel in the second quarter of 2020.
