Intel Core i5-12400F - the value six-core that made 12th Gen famous, cooler in the box.
The Intel Core i5-12400F is a 6-core, 12-thread desktop processor on the LGA1700 socket, built on the Alder Lake architecture. It runs 2.50GHz base with a 4.40GHz max turbo, 18MB of Intel Smart Cache, and 65W processor base power (117W maximum turbo power). It has no integrated graphics, so a discrete graphics card is needed - and the box includes Intel's Laminar RM1 cooler, so you can build immediately.
