About the Product

The i5-3475S is a powerful 4-core processor. Suitable for both gaming systems and workstations and multimedia stations. Thanks to the built-in Intel HD Graphics 4000 video core, the computer can work efficiently without a discrete graphics card, since the monitor is connected to the video output on the motherboard.

The 2nd generation Intel Core i5-2400 processor delivers an improved automatic performance, thanks to its Intel Turbo Boost Technology 2.0. This gives system builders the freedom to set their computers the way they want by overclocking the Core i7-2600K's original speed of 3.1GHz to up to 3.4GHz.
