Intel Core i7-10700 Desktop Processor 8 Cores up to 4.8 GHz LGA 1200 (Intel 400 Series Chipset) 65W, BX8070110700

Product Information

With an optimal balance of frequency, cores and threads, and blazing connectivity, 10th Gen Intel® Core™ processors supercharge desktops and All-in-One (AIO) PCs for premium performance. Aside from the suffix difference, the K variant has a TDP almost twice as high, and this manifests almost entirely in the base frequency difference. Get more from your PC build by untethering with Intel® Wi-Fi 6 (Gig+), versatile connectivity with Thunderbolt™ 3, and accelerated responsiveness with Intel® Optane™ memory. Trying to drill down into why our Core i7-10700 was drawing more power at peak, I turned to the per-core loading to see if there was something perhaps more obvious. The sad truth is perhaps depressing: Intel’s processors have worked this way for over a decade, and both Intel and motherboard manufacturers have used the fact that the quad-core processors never seriously went above the TDP values in the first place to hide this fact.

Why is this cheaper, and supposedly less powerful version of this silicon running at a higher turbo power in a standard off-the-shelf Intel Z490 motherboard?

The understanding of the way that Intel references its TDP (thermal design point) values has gone through a mini-revolution in the last few years.

Intel® Iris® Xe Graphics only: to use the Intel® Iris® Xe brand, the system must be populated with 128-bit (dual channel) memory. The Core i7-10700 and Core i7-10700K are both members of Intel’s 10 th Generation ‘Comet Lake’ Core i7 family. Only in an OEM system like an HP Elitedesk or Dell Workstation will they run anywhere close to their TDP rating but I'd guess they are using PL2 as well because why not, Intel said its ok. This is a bit tougher, because a motherboard manufacturer can change these numbers on a whim from BIOS version to BIOS version.

It would also be overclocking the memory, and if we're overclocking the memory, then why aren't we also overclocking the CPU? Processors that support 64-bit computing on Intel® architecture require an Intel 64 architecture-enabled BIOS. There is a slight difference to all of this, with some of the more commercial and enterprise motherboards, like the Q series or W series (and sometimes the H series). wapkw=hyper+threading for more information including details on which processors support Intel® HT Technology.
