Compatibility and related parts
This CPU needs an LGA1700 board, so start with our motherboards and check that the board's memory type matches the memory (RAM) you choose, since it supports DDR5 or DDR4 depending on the motherboard. As a tray processor with a 125 W base power and 150 W maximum turbo power, it needs a capable cooler from our CPU coolers, plus a graphics card because there are no integrated graphics. The PC builder checks compatibility for you, and parts bought as part of a PC build get free assembly and testing.
