SKU CH-WNYY-6A3CS MPN i5-3570KProduct

A quad-core desktop processor running at 3.40 GHz with 6 MB L3 cache on a 22 nm process for Socket H2 LGA-1155

  • Quad-core design handles multitasking smoothly with four cores
  • 40 GHz clock speed delivers responsive desktop performance
  • 6 MB L3 cache reduces latency for frequent data
  • 22 nm process technology improves efficiency per watt
  • LGA-1155 socket fits compatible motherboards directly

Third-generation Core i5 desktop processor

This Intel Core i5-3570K is a quad-core desktop processor running at 3.40 GHz with 6 MB of L3 cache and 1 MB of L2 cache. It uses the LGA-1155 socket and is built on 22 nm process technology. The processor supports 64-bit computing and features a Direct Media Interface of 5 GT/s. It is supplied in OEM packaging without a retail cooler.

Upgraders with LGA-1155 motherboards

This processor suits owners of existing LGA-1155 systems who want a higher-clocked quad-core chip with an unlocked multiplier for overclocking. It is not for builders starting a new platform, buyers who require newer socket standards, or anyone needing instruction-set extensions introduced after this architecture.

Unlocked multiplier for overclocking

The defining specification is the unlocked multiplier indicated by the K suffix, which allows enthusiast overclocking on compatible LGA-1155 chipsets. Without a Z-series board this headroom cannot be used, making the multiplier the single detail that decides whether this is the right part for the build.
