Product Description
-------------------
Now there is a family of smart processors that can provide extra
performance when you need it, and increased energy efficiency
when you don’t. Intel Core i7-875K Processor, 2.93 GHz
with 8 MB L3 shared cache. Features Overclocking Enabled, which
allows full control over the processor core/turbo and DDR ratios
for the best possible overclocking results. These
processors are compatible with boards based on P55, H57 and H55
chipsets. Intel Turbo Boost Technology which accelerates your
performance to match your workload. Intel Hyper-Threading
Technology (Quad-core with eight-way multi-task processing).
Included in box: processor, manual and chassis sticker.
Three-year Limited Warranty. Intel Turbo Boost Technology
automatically speeds up your processor when you need it. So even
if you’re running multiple applications at the same time, turbo
boost taps any unused power to give you an extra boost of speed.
Like a modern sports car, where the car can deliver power and
traction to the wheels where they’re needed, Intel Turbo Boost
Technology automatically speeds up the processor when the PC
needs extra performance. Intel Hyper-Threading Technology lets
your processor do many things at the same time, similar to a
toaster that has two slots instead of one, or four slots instead
of two. The result is that you can do a lot more in less time.

For enthusiasts and gamers looking for the ultimate in
customization and performance, the Intel Core i7-875K Processor
is the breakthrough they've been waiting for. The Core i7-875K
Processor is an processor, meaning it's easy to
"overclock" the chip and push it further for better performance.
Combined with Intel Turbo Boost and Hyper-Threading Technology,
you'll be able to maximize performance to match your workload.
Break Through Previously Locked Performance Limits
The new Intel Core i7-875K Processor has an multiplier,
which allows you to easily increase the core and memory
frequencies beyond the original specifications. If you hit a
power wall, you also have the ability to increase the current and
wattage limits of the processor to have access to more power.
When combined with a robust motoard, good cooling, and
high-performance DDR3 memory based on Intel Extreme Memory
Profiles (Intel XMP), you have the most flexibility for
overclocking available. Intel recommends the following
motoards for the Intel Core i7-875K Processor: Intel DP55KG,
DP55SB, DP55WG, DH57DD. These boards fully support the Core
i7-875K's flexible overclocking capabilities allowing for maximum
performance.
Gaming to the Max
The Core i7-875K enables an incredible experience for all kinds
of games. For hard-core gamers who enjoy overclocking their
system, the Core i7-875K is their best bet. With the ability to
spread artificial intelligence (AI), physics, and rendering
across multiple threads, you'll be able to concentrate on the
game and be completely immersed in smooth-playing, detailed
worlds.
Powerful Performance with New Microarchitecture
The Core i7-875K combines the power of four computing cores into
a single processor. Even without overclocking, the cores run at
2.93 GHz, guaranteeing enough processing power for demanding
applications. And 8 MB of Smart Cache ensures that you get
maximum responsiveness from your system, even when several
intensive programs run simultaneously. The Socket 1156-based
processor is compatible with motoards based on the Intel P55
Express Chipset.
Intel introduced a new style of computer architecture with the
Core i7-875K. They replaced the front-side bus--a longtime ste
of processor design--with a new interconnect technology called
Direct Media Interface (DMI). Using DMI, the Core i7-875K
achieves superior levels of bandwidth, and can use its four
computing cores to their maximum potential.
Simply put, users enjoy faster and more streamlined processing
than ever before. Your computer can handle multiple projects and
applications without the slowdown you'd experience with a lesser
processor. Extremely intensive programs like HD media editors run
more smoothly and responsively. And, next-generation games can be
experienced without frame rate hiccups and slowdown.
New Technologies Boost Performance
The Intel Core i7-875K processor also makes use of several other
cutting-edge technologies:
* Turbo Boost Technology allows the processor to run at up to 3.6
GHz when needed.
* Hyper-Threading Technology enables more efficient use of
processor resources, making the most of highly threaded software
like media players and next-generation games.
* Smart Cache Memory increases available RAM resources, leading
to less lag while multi-tasking.
Media Editing and Sharing Easier than Ever
Whether editing high-definition videos, touching up family
photos, or splicing up music, the Core i7-875K provides the
processing power needed. Its four cores are optimized to keep up
with the most advanced digital editing software. It also
accelerates DVD encoding and compression, allowing you to easily
share your HD home videos with everyone.
Unparalleled Gaming Performance
With the advent of next-generation games, PC gaming is more
immersive than ever. The latest games are taking advantage of
multi-threaded programming, allowing for more realistic graphics,
physics, and AI. However, to fully experience all these effects,
you need more than just a good graphics card with high GPU
output. Underlying the visual realism and advanced AI scripts are
thousands of high-speed calculations that your CPU must process.
Fortunately, the Core i7-875K is specifically designed to handle
these calculations. Using multi-thread architecture, it has the
ability to process thousands of graphical characteristics at
once, resulting in a smooth and lag-free experience.
The Intel Core i7-875K processor is backed by a three-year
limited warranty.
