Notes
The Core i7-11700 features 8 cores and 16 threads with 65W TDP on Rocket Lake, boosting up to 4.9 GHz. This locked processor delivers solid performance with improved IPC over 10th gen and PCIe 4.0 support. Despite Rocket Lake's mixed reception, the 11700 offers decent value for mainstream builds. Perfect for systems prioritizing efficiency without overclocking. Generally overshadowed by 10th and 12th gen alternatives, though capable for gaming and productivity when found at competitive pricing with compatible motherboards.
