You get support for both DDR4 and DDR5 memory, allowing flexible RAM choices for new builds or upgrades. A 65 W base TDP rising to 180 W under boost means your cooling solution must manage both steady and peak thermal loads. The 25 MB L3 cache reduces memory latency in games and creative applications. Intel UHD Graphics 770 is included, so the processor can output video without a separate graphics card.
