Procesor Intel S1700 Core i9 12900KS Tray 16x3.4 125W

The manufacturer that produced the processor.

The model number for the processor in a computer.

A family of processors is a group of processors produced by one company over a short period of time e.g. Intel Pentium processors.

The number of central processing units ('cores') in a processor. Some processors have 1 core, others have 2 (e.g. Intel Core Duo) or more (e.g. the Intel Xeon E7-2850 has 10 cores).

Mechanical component(s) that provides mechanical and electrical connections between a microprocessor and a printed circuit board (PCB). This allows the processor to be replaced without soldering.

Operating modes for the processors that place restrictions on the type and scope of operations for certain processes run by the CPU. This design allows the operating system to run with more privileges than application software.

The turbo boost is an automatic, managed accelleration of the processor when one of the cores is overloaded.
