About this product
The Intel Core i7-3770 is one of the quickest processors an LGA 1155 board can take. It has 4 cores and 8 threads through Hyper-Threading, a 3.4 GHz base clock with Turbo Boost up to 3.9 GHz, 8 MB of cache and Intel HD Graphics 4000, rated at 77W.
Hyper-Threading doubles the threads compared with the Core i5 chips of the same family, and the extra cache helps too. Encoding, compression, compiling and running many applications together all benefit, so an older desktop can take on noticeably heavier work without a new board, memory or case.
The HD Graphics 4000 is the stronger of the two 3rd Gen graphics options. It handles office work, video playback and very light older games, but a graphics card is still needed for real gaming.
Check compatibility first. B75, H77 and Z77 boards support it out of the box. Older H61, B65, H67 and Z68 boards need a BIOS with 3rd Gen support, which many received through updates. Memory is DDR3 desktop modules, up to DDR3-1600, two channels and 32 GB at most.
The platform is from 2012, so modern features such as DDR4 and, on most boards, NVMe booting are missing. Intel discontinued the chip long ago; check the condition and warranty listed for the unit.
Buy it to get the most out of an existing LGA 1155 machine for office, development or home use.
