Intel Core i5-10400

The Intel Core i5-10400 is a desktop processor with 6 cores, launched in April 2020. It is part of the Core i5 lineup, using the Comet Lake architecture with Socket 1200. Thanks to Intel Hyper-Threading the core-count is effectively doubled, to 12 threads. Core i5-10400 has 12 MB of L3 cache and operates at 2.9 GHz by default, but can boost up to 4.3 GHz, depending on the workload. Intel is making the Core i5-10400 on a 14 nm production node, the transistor count is unknown. The multiplier is locked on Core i5-10400, which limits its overclocking potential.

With a TDP of 65 W, the Core i5-10400 consumes typical power levels for a modern PC. Intel's processor supports DDR4 memory with a dual-channel interface. The highest officially supported memory speed is 2666 MT/s, but with overclocking (and the right memory modules) you can go even higher. For communication with other components in the machine, Core i5-10400 uses a PCI-Express Gen 3 connection. This processor features the UHD Graphics 630 integrated graphics solution

Hardware virtualization is available on the Core i5-10400, which greatly improves virtual machine performance. Additionally, IOMMU virtualization (PCI passthrough) is supported, so that guest virtual machines may directly use host hardware. Programs using Advanced Vector Extensions (AVX) can run on this processor, boosting performance for calculation-heavy applications. Besides AVX, Intel is including the newer AVX2 standard, too, but not AVX-512.

Here are some key features of DDR4 RAM:

1. Speed: DDR4 RAM generally operates at higher speeds compared to its predecessors. This increased speed allows for faster data transfer rates between the RAM and the CPU, resulting in improved overall system performance.

2. Efficiency: DDR4 RAM consumes less power than DDR3 RAM, making it more energy-efficient. This is achieved through various technological advancements, including lower operating voltages and improved power management features.

3. Capacity: DDR4 RAM modules are available in higher capacities compared to DDR3, allowing for greater memory configurations in modern systems. This increased capacity is particularly beneficial for applications that require large amounts of memory, such as video editing, 3D rendering, and virtualization.

4. Density: DDR4 RAM offers increased memory density, allowing for more memory chips to be packed onto a single module. This enables higher capacity modules without significantly increasing the physical size of the RAM sticks.

5. Reliability: DDR4 RAM incorporates advanced error correction technologies, such as ECC (Error-Correcting Code), which helps to detect and correct data errors more effectively than previous generations of RAM.

Overall, DDR4 RAM represents a significant advancement in memory technology, offering improved performance, efficiency, and capacity for modern computing systems. It has become the standard choice for most new desktops, laptops, and servers.
