About this product
The Intel Core i9-10940X is a 14-core, 28-thread processor from Intel's 10th Gen high-end desktop line, codenamed Cascade Lake, for the LGA 2066 socket. It belongs to a platform built for workstations rather than gaming PCs, and its strengths are the things mainstream desktops lack: four memory channels, a large number of PCIe lanes and support for a lot of RAM.
It runs at a 3.3 GHz base clock and boosts up to 4.60 GHz, reaching 4.80 GHz on its favoured cores with Turbo Boost Max 3.0. With 19.25MB of cache and a 165W rating, it is comfortable with long renders, simulations, large compiles and virtual machines. Quad-channel DDR4-2933 and up to 256GB of memory suit large datasets, and its 48 PCIe lanes leave room for several graphics cards, NVMe drives and fast network cards at the same time.
This is a previous-generation platform, so it makes the most sense as an upgrade for an existing LGA 2066 workstation or for a build that specifically needs its lanes and memory capacity. It needs an LGA 2066 motherboard on Intel's high-end desktop chipset with a BIOS that supports 10th Gen X-series processors. There is no integrated graphics, so a graphics card is required, and no cooler is included: at 165W, a large dual-tower air cooler or a liquid cooler with a big radiator is advisable. Memory works best with four or eight matching modules so every channel is used.
For a heavily expanded workstation, it still offers capabilities that ordinary desktop processors do not.
