Dual-core 3.3 GHz desktop CPU

The Intel Core i3-3220 is a dual-core processor running at a fixed 3.30 GHz with 3 MB of Smart Cache. It fits the LGA1155 socket and targets basic desktop workloads such as office applications, web browsing and media playback.

Steady clock under load

Because the chip operates at a single 3.3 GHz frequency with no Turbo Boost, its speed remains constant during sustained tasks. The 55 W thermal design keeps heat output predictable for standard cooling solutions during extended sessions.

Memory bandwidth ceiling

The integrated dual-channel controller caps memory bandwidth at 25.6 GB/s, limiting data throughput regardless of faster DIMMs. The LGA1155 platform also restricts upgrades to the same socket generation.
