Intel Core i5-8600T OEM/TRAY desktop processor

SKU CH-7BA6-ZJ7P1

Six-core desktop processor with 2.30 GHz base clock, 3.70 GHz turbo, 35 W TDP and integrated UHD Graphics 630 for Socket 1151 systems

  • 6-core design handles multi-threaded workloads smoothly
  • 35 W TDP keeps heat output low for compact builds
  • Base 2.30 GHz clock with 3.70 GHz turbo for responsive performance
  • Integrated UHD Graphics 630 drives up to three displays
  • 14 nm process and 9 MB L3 cache balance speed and efficiency

Hexa-core desktop processor for 4K content creation

The Intel Core i5-8600T is a 6-core CPU built on 14 nm process technology with a base clock of 2.30 GHz and a turbo frequency of 3.70 GHz. Its 35 W thermal design power makes it suitable for compact or quiet systems. Integrated UHD Graphics 630 drives up to three displays for 4K and 360-degree viewing.

LGA-1151 socket with 8 GT/s DMI and integrated

The processor fits Socket H4 LGA-1151 motherboards and communicates over an 8 GT/s Direct Media Interface. Onboard graphics eliminate the need for a discrete card in many workflows, while the 1.50 MB L2 and 9 MB L3 caches keep data close to the cores. The 100 °C thermal specification defines the operating ceiling.

Upgrade from dual-core or older quad-core chips

Moving to six cores raises multi-thread throughput for editing, rendering and multitasking without increasing power draw beyond 35 W. The jump is worthwhile when your current CPU limits 4K export speed or forces proxy workflows. Compatibility with existing LGA-1151 infrastructure keeps platform cost low.
