FEATURES
- Breakthrough Core Technology: In a game-changing advance for core performance, 12th Gen Intel® Core™ desktop processors power a revolutionary approach to the x86 architecture. Its Performance-cores—or “P-cores”—are optimized for single & lightly-threaded performance, while its Efficient-cores—or “E-cores”—are optimized for scaling highly-threaded workloads. Intel® Thread Director helps to monitor and analyze performance data in real-time to seamlessly place the right application thread on the right core and optimize performance per watt.1 That means gamers, creators, and professionals can harness both intelligence and power to enhance the experiences that matter most.
- Immersive Experiences: Whether you’re delving into the latest gaming titles or focusing on advanced professional applications, 12th Gen Intel® Core™ Desktop processors enable you to immerse without interruptions. Intel® UHD Graphics driven by Xe Architecture invite you to take a deep dive into vivid new experiences with enhanced visual support for up to 8K HDR video in billions of colors and up to 4 simultaneous 4K displays. 12th Gen Intel® Core™ desktop processors are capable of canceling out interruptions with enhanced Gaussian & Neural Accelerator 3.0 (GNA) for more efficient noise suppression and background blurring on video. For elite gaming, world-class productivity, free flowing creation, and more, 12th Gen Intel® Core™ desktop processors enable deep immersion and focus.
- Accelerating Platform Innovation: Tap into the latest platform technologies that drive incredible gaming, workflow, and creation. Our 12th Gen Intel® Core™ desktop processors offer up to 20 lanes (16 PCIe 5.0 and 4 PCIe 4.0) to drive optimal discrete graphics and storage performance by enabling higher bandwidth connection points. DDR5 brings fast speeds up to 4800 MT/s, this allows for increased memory bandwidth speeds compared to previous generations that use DDR4 3200 MT/s memory.2 Fine tune both compute power and performance with unlocked 12th Gen Intel® Core™ desktop processors that have overclocking capabilities and Advanced Tuning support via Intel® Extreme Tuning Utility (XTU).3 With these and other platform enhancements you’ll be able to work, game, and create with impressive control and confidence.
