Intel Pentium G850

The Intel Pentium G850 packs 2 cores and 4 threads. It drops into the LGA1155 socket with a 65W TDP — about 32.5W per core. 3MB of L3 cache helps in cache-sensitive games and workloads. Clocks run from 2.9GHz base to 2.9GHz boost.

Integrated Intel HD Graphics graphics let it run headless-GPU builds and troubleshooting. Confirm motherboard socket compatibility before anything else, then size the cooler to the TDP. Drop it into the PlanMyPC builder to check compatibility with the rest of your parts and compare current processor prices across retailers. Warranty coverage follows Intel's standard policy — confirm regional terms on the listing.
