Product Overview
A Powerful Solution for Next Generation PCs
Looking for the perfect processor to build your gaming rig? Want to game and stream at the same time? And want to edit your action videos and photos?
We got you covered - Intel is proud to announce its 6th Generation Intel® Core™ Desktop processor family - (codename Skylake).
If it is performance you crave then these are the processors that you have been waiting for.
The desktop Intel® Core™ i5-6600K desktop processor has a quadcore base frequency of 3.5GHz, 6MB of cache memory and support for up to 64GB in DDR4 RAM memory. Additionally, it is unlocked so that you can squeeze every last bit of performance out of it.
Responsive Performance
The new architecture and design of the 6th Gen Intel® Core™ desktop processors delivers:
• A new full range base-clock settings that provide more granularity for overclocking your platform. This is possible with the new unlocked 6th Gen Intel® Core™ desktop processors i7-6700K and i5-6600K and the Intel® Z170 chipset that also allows you to tune key aspects of your system including cores, power and memory.
• Support for DDR4 RAM memory technology in mainstream platforms, allowing systems to have up to 64GB of memory and higher transfer speeds at lower power when compared to DDR3 (DDR4 speed 2133 MT/s at 1.2V vs DDR3 speed 1600 MT/s at 1.5).
6th Gen Intel® Core™ i7 and Core™ i5 desktop processors come with Intel® Turbo Boost 2.0 Technology which gives you that extra burst of performance.
Stunning Visuals
Videos come to life in Ultra HD 4K so users can enjoy amazing and vibrant multimedia experiences on Ultra HD and 4K displays (up to 4096x2160 resolution on i5-6600K). To deliver this experience, Intel® Core™ i7-6700K and i5-6600K desktop processors incorporate support for HEVC, VP8 and VP9.
Intel® Quick Sync Video technology accelerates most video capabilities, allowing users to create and share in real-time and multi-task without interruption.
6th Gen Intel® Core™ i7 and Core™ i5 desktop processors support graphics programmability features such as OpenCL 2.0 so programmers can easily take advantage of the graphics compute capabilities.
With native support for the new DirectX 12 API, the 6th Gen Intel® Core™ desktop processors can provide a better experience for gaming and graphics that take advantage of DirectX 12.
Increased Security
6th Gen Intel® Core™ desktop processors offers hardware-level security features such as:
• Intel® Software Guard Extensions (Intel® SGX)that helps protect your system and your data.
• Intel® Memory Protection Extensions helps protect application’s run time integrity.
• Intel® Device Protection Technology with BIOS Guard 2.0 and Intel® Device Protection Technology with Boot Guard help protect your system during boot.
Whether you use your PC for gaming, rendering, editing or creating, the 6th Generation Intel® Core™ i7-6700K and i5-6600K desktop processors deliver a great PC experience.
