About this product
The Intel Core i5-3470 is a 3rd Gen Core processor for LGA 1155 motherboards. It offers 4 cores and 4 threads, a 3.2 GHz base clock with Turbo Boost to 3.6 GHz, 6 MB of cache and Intel HD Graphics 2500, all within 77W.
The move to a smaller manufacturing process made this generation cooler and slightly quicker per clock than the chips before it, and it supports faster DDR3-1600 memory. For an office or home PC that means smooth everyday work, quieter cooling and a little more headroom for multitasking.
Compatibility needs a quick check. On B75, H77 and Z77 boards it works natively. On older H61, B65, H67 and Z68 boards it needs a BIOS that supports 3rd Gen processors; many boards received one, but applying it usually requires a 2nd Gen chip in the socket first. Confirm your board's processor support list before ordering. Memory is DDR3 desktop modules, two channels, up to 32 GB.
The integrated graphics are for display, office software and video, not for gaming. Like the rest of its platform, it lacks modern features such as DDR4 and, on most boards, fast NVMe booting. Intel discontinued it long ago, so check the condition and warranty stated for the unit.
It is a good fit for upgrading or repairing LGA 1155 office machines, school computers and billing counters at very low cost.
