How to Choose a Pre-Built PC
From the CPU to the cooler, everything in a pre-built PC matters. Here's how you find one that matches your playstyle.
How to Read Benchmarks
Real-world performance speaks louder than specs. Benchmarks let you compare CPUs across generations— here's how to read them.
What Is CPU Clock Speed?
How fast is your PC's brain? Clock speed tells you in gigahertz. It's a key part of your PC's gaming performance.
Hyper-Threading Explained
With hyper-threading, one core acts like two. That means your PC can do more at once and provide greater CPU throughput in some situations.
Why Refresh Rate Matters
High refresh rate monitors display more images per second. If you're aiming for high frame rates, you'll want one.
How SSDs Impact Gaming
SSDs get you into the game faster with quick boot-up and short level load times.
Game Better
Optimize your PC to optimize your gameplay. Get ahead of the game with advice from pro players and Intel tech experts.
Product and Performance Information
Performance hybrid architecture combines two core microarchitectures, Performance-cores (P-cores) and Efficient-cores (E-cores), on a single processor die first introduced on 12th Gen Intel Core processors. Select 13th Gen Intel Core processors do not have performance hybrid architecture, only P-cores, and have same cache size as prior generation; see ark.intel.com for sku details.
Built into the hardware, Intel® Thread Director is provided only in performance hybrid architecture configurations of 12th Gen or newer Intel® Core™ processors; OS enablement is required. Available features and functionality vary by OS.
Altering clock frequency or voltage may void any product warranties and reduce stability, security, performance, and life of the processor and other components. Check with system and component manufacturers for details.
Up to 75% Latency reduction: Is based on Intel simulation data (79%) of 802.11ax with and without OFDMA using 9 clients. Average latency without OFDM is 36ms, with OFDMA average latency is reduced to 7.6ms. Latency improvement requires that the 802.11ax (Wi-Fi 6) router and all clients support OFDMA.
Performance varies by use, configuration and other factors. Learn more at www.Intel.com/PerformanceIndex.
