The processor is your computer’s “brainpower.” Intel® Core™ processors manage high-intensity tasks such as gaming, film editing, and animation.

Random Access Memory (RAM) keeps data for rapid processor access. More RAM lets you run more programs at once, with faster response.

For the long-term storage of applications, operating systems, and data, you can choose a hard disk drive or the smaller, faster solid-state drive.

Your computer’s graphics card creates the images displayed on your monitor, while integrated graphics power many consumer applications and games.

While Ethernet is the highest performing option, Intel® Wi-Fi 6 enabled PCs give you fast access to Wi-Fi networks everywhere with security and reliability.

Windows 11 running with the latest Intel® Core™ processor delivers the power you need for creativity, productivity and entertainment.

High-performing, configurable, durable desktops are the workhorses of computing, providing tremendous value, easy upgrades and strong performance.

Frequently Asked Questions

With the right preparation and instruction, anyone can build their own PC. In fact, building your own PC is the best way to ensure that your machine will meet all your needs and preferences. Here’s a full explanation of how it’s done.

Product and Performance Information

1

Benchmark results were obtained prior to implementation of recent software patches and firmware updates intended to address exploits referred to as "Spectre" and "Meltdown". Implementation of these updates may make these results inapplicable to your device or system.

Performance varies by use, configuration and other factors. Learn more at www.Intel.com/PerformanceIndex.

Includes the effect of Intel® Thermal Velocity Boost (Intel® TVB), a feature that opportunistically and automatically increases clock frequency above single-core and multi-core Intel® Turbo Boost Technology frequencies based on how much the processor is operating below its maximum temperature and whether turbo power budget is available. The frequency gain and duration is dependent on the workload, capabilities of the processor and the processor cooling solution.
