Perfect for the power user or expert gamer who demand lower temperatures under heavy use. The i3 9100 uses 14nm architecture and a 6MB cache for a balanced performance that doesn’t break the bank.
Intel® Turbo Boost Technology 2.0
Intel Turbo Boost 2.0 technology brilliantly accelerates processor and graphics performance for peak loads and helps the CPU distribute power through the cores. As Hyper Threading has been turned off for the new range, the boost you get from the Turbo feature does not overheat the processor. DirectX 12 Support helps with optimization when running large apps and even 4K content at 60Hz.
