4.1GHz

3.9GHz

When the processor is running below its limits, it can jump to a higher clock speed to increase performance.

Unlocked

✔AMD FX-6300

✔Intel Core i7-4770K

Some processors come with an unlocked multiplier and can be easily overclocked for better performance in games and other applications. nine0003

L2 Cache

More L2 scratchpad memory results in faster results in CPU and system performance tuning.

L3 cache

More L3 scratchpad memory results in faster results in CPU and system performance tuning.

L1 cache

More L1 cache results in faster results in CPU and system performance tuning. nine0003

L2 core
