Reading guide
Read the performance results
The 1,936 CPU Mark is a broad overall-performance measure, while the 390 single-thread result adds context for less-parallel work. Compare the nearby alternatives on this page and do not treat one score as a verdict for every application.
Platform and compatibility
It uses socket LGA1567. A matching socket is only the first check; confirm the official motherboard CPU-support list, BIOS revision and board power limits.
Memory and power
The 130 W TDP helps size the cooling class, but it is not the same as peak wall-power consumption.
