Intel Core i3-13100F LGA 1700 processor

This refurbished desktop CPU uses the Raptor Lake architecture with four performance cores and eight threads. It reaches a maximum turbo frequency of 4.5 GHz and provides 12 MB of L3 cache. The processor requires a discrete graphics card because it has no integrated graphics.

Suits budget gaming and office builds

Buyers who need integrated graphics for video output or Quick Sync should choose a non-F model. The 58 W base power and 89 W maximum turbo power fit standard air coolers. Systems needing more than four cores should consider a Core i5 or i7 instead.

LGA 1700 socket with DDR4 and DDR5 memory support

The CPU works with motherboards using the LGA 1700 socket and runs memory in dual-channel mode. Supported speeds are DDR4 3200 and DDR5 4800 up to a maximum capacity of 128 GB. PCI Express 5.0 and 4.0 are available through 20 lanes for graphics and storage.

Questions about this item

How much heat does the Core i3-13100F produce when running at its 89W maximum turbo power all day?

The processor base power is 58W and the maximum turbo power is 89W. A cooler rated for at least 89W TDP will handle sustained loads without throttling.

What motherboard socket and memory kit do I need to install the BX8071513100F?

You need an LGA 1700 motherboard and either DDR4 3200 or DDR5 4800 memory in a two-channel configuration up to 128GB total.

Will my PCIe 3.0 graphics card work at full speed with this CPU's 20 PCIe lanes?

The CPU supports PCIe 5.0, 4.0 and 3.0 across up to 20 lanes, so a PCIe 3.0 card will operate at its native speed without bandwidth loss.
