Prosessori Intel Core i5-10400 2.9 GHz 6 ydintä 12 MB välimuisti LGA 1200

Processor Intel Core i5-10400 2.9 GHz (base) with up to 4.3 GHz Turbo Boost, six physical cores and 12 MB Intel Smart Cache. Designed for desktop systems using LGA 1200 socket, this Comet Lake CPU supports dual-channel DDR4 memory (up to system limits determined by the motherboard), integrated Intel UHD Graphics 630, and a variety of PCI Express configurations for compatibility with common desktop motherboards.

Advantages

The Intel Core i5-10400 provides balanced multi-core performance for everyday computing and productivity tasks while keeping power and thermal requirements suitable for standard desktop configurations. Built-in technologies such as Intel Turbo Boost, Intel Hyper-Threading, and Intel Smart Cache improve responsiveness under mixed workloads. Integrated Intel UHD Graphics 630 allows basic graphics output without a discrete GPU, and support for virtualization, security, and media acceleration features increases system flexibility.

Suitable for

• Home and office productivity (documents, spreadsheets, web browsing)
• Multitasking and content creation (photo editing, light video editing)
• Everyday gaming with mid-range settings when paired with a discrete GPU
• Virtualization and development environments that benefit from hardware-assisted virtualization

How to use

Install the processor into a compatible LGA 1200 motherboard following the motherboard manufacturer’s CPU installation instructions. Apply an appropriate CPU cooler and thermal interface material, secure the cooler according to the cooler and motherboard guidelines, and configure BIOS/UEFI settings as required for memory, storage, and virtualization options. Install a supported operating system and chipset drivers provided by the motherboard vendor to ensure full functionality of integrated graphics and platform features.

Recommendations

For stable operation, use a compatible LGA 1200 motherboard with a BIOS version that supports the i5-10400, adequate cooling matched to your case airflow, and high-quality RAM modules in matched pairs to enable dual-channel memory. If heavier graphics or rendering workloads are expected, pair the CPU with a discrete GPU. Enable virtualization features in BIOS only when needed and keep system firmware and drivers up to date for security and performance.
