Intel Core i5-10400 Desktop Processor — 12M Cache | Up to 4.30 GHz | LGA1200 | 10th Gen Comet Lake | 65W TDP | Pulled | 1-Year Warranty

The pulled Intel Core i5-10400 is built for budget-conscious home users, students, gamers, and IT administrators deploying affordable LGA1200 10th Gen desktop systems for everyday productivity, gaming, video streaming, content consumption, multitasking, and light content creation. It is well-suited for refurbished PC builds, home and office upgrades, entry-level to mid-range gaming rigs with a discrete GPU, and cost-efficient workstation deployments where reliable six-core Comet Lake performance with Hyper-Threading and Turbo Boost at a minimal investment is the priority.

The Core i5-10400 features 6 physical cores and 12 threads via Intel Hyper-Threading Technology — a significant step up over quad-core i5 predecessors — delivering excellent multitasking, gaming, and productivity performance across all workloads. Intel Turbo Boost 2.0 dynamically raises clock speeds from a 2.90GHz base up to 4.30GHz on single or dual cores for responsive burst performance in gaming and single-threaded applications, returning to efficient frequencies during lighter loads. The 12MB L3 Smart Cache — double the 6MB cache of previous i5 generations — provides significantly more on-chip data storage for faster access during multitasking and compute-intensive workloads. Integrated Intel UHD Graphics 630 with up to 1.10GHz dynamic frequency supports up to 3 simultaneous displays, 4K@60Hz via DisplayPort, 4K@30Hz via HDMI 1.4, DirectX 12, OpenGL 4.5, and hardware-accelerated Intel Quick Sync Video, Intel InTru 3D, and Intel Clear Video HD — eliminating the need for a discrete GPU in everyday and multimedia builds. DDR4-2666 dual-channel memory support up to 128GB at 41.6 GB/s maximum bandwidth delivers responsive multitasking and expandable memory capacity. Intel AES-NI, VT-x, VT-d, VT-x with EPT, Intel SGX, Intel Boot Guard, Intel OS Guard, and Execute Disable Bit provide a comprehensive security and virtualisation feature set for office and enterprise builds. PCIe 3.0 x16 supports discrete GPU and NVMe SSD expansion. Each pulled unit has been individually cleaned and tested for full operational functionality before dispatch.
