Q: Is this desktop processor unlocked?
A: Yes, this is an unlocked processor.
Q: Which chipsets are compatible with this processor?
A: This processor is compatible with Intel 700 and 600 series chipset motherboards.
Q: Does this processor support DDR5 memory?
A: Yes, this processor supports both DDR5 and DDR4 memory.
Q: How much Level 3 cache does this processor have?
A: This processor has a 33MB Level 3 cache.
Q: What is the base clock frequency of this processor?
A: The base clock frequency of this processor is 4.3GHz.
A: Yes. This will run with windows 10. This is a high end chip though, if you dont know if it works with windows 10 or 11 and dont want to go to the most recent version of windows, I assume that you might not need the level of power it provides. You might want to consider a 13th gen i7 or maybe even the i5 to save some money. This processor is heavily geared towards high compute productivity.

Powerfull
So there is conplaints about tenps but more than likely they are doing something wrong or using poor cooling. Im running a kraken 360 aio and my temps are cool. Gaming in helldivers 2 or fortnite which are more cpu intense, im around 58-62c all day. Idle around 24-29c. Just do the microcode update to your bios and you are golden. The cpu is a beast.

Good Intel option for price point
Amazing performance for price. I upgraded from an older gen amd and the difference is night and day. Only drawback is that the temperatures under load run towards the hotter side, but not dangerously high.
