  • Hyper-Threading Technology: Each core can handle two threads, allowing better multitasking and parallel processing.

Performance Overview:

• The i3-13100F is designed for budget-oriented builds but can still provide solid performance for general computing, gaming (with a discrete GPU), and light productivity tasks.
• Its high base and turbo clock speeds (3.4 GHz and 4.5 GHz) offer a good balance of single-threaded and multi-threaded performance.
• It's a suitable choice for users who need a low-cost CPU that doesn't need integrated graphics but can deliver strong performance with the help of a dedicated GPU.

System Requirements:

• Motherboard: Compatible with LGA 1700 socket, 600-series chipset (Z690, B660, H670, etc.)
• Cooling Solution: Standard air cooling should suffice, but ensure the case has adequate airflow for the processor’s TDP.
