Compatibility and related parts
The i5-12400 needs an LGA1700 board, so start with our motherboards and pick DDR4 or DDR5 memory (RAM) to match the board. Because this is a tray processor with the cooler sold separately, add one of our CPU coolers with LGA1700 support. The PC builder checks compatibility for you, and parts bought as a PC build get free assembly and testing.
