Intel Core i3-12100 – capable performance for everyday desktops
The Intel Core i3-12100 suits home, office and study PCs that need dependable everyday performance. Its four cores and eight threads help handle common workloads and multitasking smoothly.
Key specs at a glance
| Metric | Specification |
|---|---|
| Processor generation | 12th Gen Intel Core |
| Cores and threads | 4 cores, 8 threads |
| Base and boost frequency | 3.3 GHz base, up to 4.3 GHz boost |
| Cache | 12 MB Intel Smart Cache |
| Socket | LGA 1700 |
| Integrated graphics | Intel UHD Graphics 730 |
Responsive performance for daily work
The four performance cores run at a 3.3 GHz base frequency and boost up to 4.3 GHz. With eight threads, the processor can manage several everyday tasks at once, such as browsing, office applications and video playback.
Intel Turbo Boost 2.0 raises frequency when workload and available thermal headroom allow. So, the processor can respond to demanding moments without running at its maximum boost frequency all the time.
Integrated graphics for a simpler build
Intel UHD Graphics 730 provides integrated graphics for supported display and video tasks. This can suit a desktop build that does not need a separate graphics card for its intended use.
The processor supports HDMI 2.1 and DisplayPort 1.4a graphics output standards. However, the available display connections depend on the motherboard, so check its rear-panel outputs before choosing a screen.
Choose memory and cooling to suit your build
This processor supports DDR4-SDRAM or DDR5-SDRAM memory, with dual-channel operation and up to 128 GB supported. Your motherboard determines which memory type you can install, so match your RAM to its specification.
The processor has a 60 W base power and an 89 W maximum turbo power. It uses the LGA 1700 socket and comes in a tray package. Check your cooling solution and system setup before completing a build.
Check these points before ordering
- Confirm your motherboard uses an LGA 1700 socket.
- Check whether your motherboard supports DDR4 or DDR5 memory.
- Confirm the motherboard has display outputs suited to your monitor if you plan to use integrated graphics.
- Check that your cooling solution suits your system configuration.
