  • PCIe 4.0 up to 4 Lanes
    Offers up to 16 GT/s for fast access to peripheral devices and networking with up to 4 PCI Express 4.0 lanes.
  • Up to DDR5 4800 MT/s²
    This industry first memory technology supports fast frequencies and high bandwidth and throughput leading to enhanced workflow and productivity.
  • Up to DDR4 3200 MT/s²
    Supports faster frequencies and higher bandwidth and throughput leading to enhanced workflow and productivity.
  • L3 and L2 Cache
    Increased shared Intel® Smart Cache (L3) and L2 cache sizes deliver large memory capacity and reduced latency for fast game loading and smooth frame rates.
  • Intel® Deep Learning Boost
    Accelerates AI inference to improve performance for deep learning workloads.
  • Gaussian & Neural Accelerator 3.0 (GNA 3.0)
    IProcesses AI speech and audio applications such as neural noise cancellation while simultaneously freeing up CPU resources for overall system performance and responsiveness.
  • Overclocking Features and Capabilities
    When paired with the Intel® Z690 chipset, processor P-cores, E-cores, graphics, and memory can be set to run at frequencies above the processor specification resulting in higher performance.

  1. This feature may not be available on all computing systems. Please check with the system vendor to determine if your system delivers this feature, or reference the system specifications (motherboard, processor, chipset, power supply, HDD, graphics controller, memory, BIOS, drivers, virtual machine monitor-VMM, platform software, and/or operating system) for feature compatibility. Functionality, performance, and other benefits of this feature may vary depending on system configuration.

Max Turbo Frequency refers to the maximum single-core processor frequency that can be achieved with Intel® Turbo Boost Technology. See www.intel.com/technology/turboboost/ for more information.

System and Maximum TDP is based on worst case scenarios. Actual TDP may be lower if not all I/Os for chipsets are used.
