Intel Core i5-11400F processor 2.6 GHz 12 MB Smart Cache Box

A six-core processor from Intel's 11th generation lineup, this CPU runs at a base frequency of 2.6 GHz and includes 12 MB of Smart Cache for efficient data access across cores. The F-series designation indicates it lacks integrated graphics, making it suitable for systems with discrete graphics cards. It supports key security and virtualisation features including Intel VT-x for virtual machine support, VT-d for I/O device virtualisation, and AES-NI instructions for encryption tasks.

This processor is compatible with LGA1151 socket motherboards and operates at a standard 65W power envelope. It includes support for 64-bit computing, allowing systems to utilise more than 4 GB of memory. The unlocked multiplier is not present on this model, so overclocking is not supported. It represents a mid-range option for mainstream computing tasks, office work, and general productivity applications where integrated graphics are not required.
