Core i7-7700T 35 W desktop processor

This quad-core CPU runs at a base frequency of 2.9 GHz and can reach a maximum turbo frequency of 3.8 GHz. It features 8 MB of L3 cache and 1 MB of L2 cache built on a 14 nm Kaby Lake architecture. The 64-bit processor supports Hyper-Threading for eight threads and includes Intel HD Graphics 630 with a base frequency of 350 MHz.

Verify LGA 1151 socket and memory compatibility

Confirm your motherboard uses the LGA 1151 socket and a chipset that supports 7th generation Core processors. The memory controller handles DDR4 at 2133 or 2400 MT/s and DDR3L at 1333 or 1600 MT/s at 1.35 V across two channels. Ensure your BIOS is updated for Kaby Lake support before installation.

35 W thermal design suits compact builds

The low 35 W power envelope allows operation with smaller coolers and in space-constrained chassis where higher-wattage parts would throttle. Integrated Intel HD Graphics 630 drives displays directly without a discrete card, supporting 4K Ultra HD and 360-degree video playback. Thunderbolt 3 readiness depends on motherboard implementation.

Questions about this item

What comes in the BX80677I77700T box and what must be purchased separately?

The retail boxed processor includes the Core i7-7700T CPU and an Intel stock cooler for the 35 W thermal design. A compatible LGA 1151 motherboard, system memory, graphics card if discrete graphics are wanted, storage, power supply and chassis all need to be sourced separately.

Which memory type should I select for this quad-core 2.9 GHz chip?

The memory controller supports DDR4 at 2133 or 2400 MT/s and DDR3L at 1333 or 1600 MT/s running at 1.35 V. Choose DDR4 for new builds; use DDR3L only when reusing existing low-voltage modules on a board that explicitly lists DDR3L support.

How does the 3.8 GHz max turbo frequency behave inside a working PC?

When thermal and power headroom allow, the processor can lift individual cores from the 2.9 GHz base up to 3.8 GHz for burst workloads. Sustained all-core speeds will sit lower, limited by the 35 W power envelope and the cooler fitted.
