Frequently Asked Questions

• Does this processor include a cooler? No. Tray processors typically do not include a thermal solution. A compatible LGA 1700 cooler is required.
• What is the difference between Tray and Boxed? Tray processors are OEM packaging without a retail box or included cooler. Functionally, they are identical to Boxed processors with the same processor number.
• Does it have integrated graphics? No. The F suffix indicates no integrated graphics, so a dedicated graphics card is required.
• Which chipsets are compatible? Intel 700 Series and 600 Series desktop chipsets, including B760, H770, Z790, W680, Q670, H610, H670, B660 and Z690.
