Intel Core i5-10400 6 Cores 12 Threads 4.3GHz H5 (LGA 1200) CM8070104290715 CPU

Enterprise Desktop/Workstation Processor Architecture built around the Intel Core i5-10400 for LGA1200 platforms

The Intel Core i5-10400 is a 10th Gen Comet Lake CPU engineered for cost-controlled compute nodes where predictable single-socket performance and integrated display capability are required. With 6 cores and 12 threads in a 65W envelope, the Intel Core i5-10400 aligns well with entry workstation builds, light server roles, and edge/office systems that prioritize consistent throughput without discrete GPU dependencies.

For memory architecture, the Intel Core i5-10400 supports up to 128GB of DDR4-2666, enabling practical capacity for small virtualization labs, container hosts, and business application stacks while retaining straightforward platform qualification on LGA1200 motherboards. Expansion is provided via PCIe 3.0 with up to 16 CPU lanes, making the Intel Core i5-10400 suitable for balanced configurations such as a single NVMe storage path plus a NIC or accelerator-class add-in, depending on board lane bifurcation. Integrated Intel UHD Graphics 630 supports up to 3 displays for kiosk, control-room, and service-console deployments, reducing hardware complexity where remote KVM is not mandatory.

Why Choose the Intel Core i5-10400?

The Intel Core i5-10400 offers an efficient density-to-performance profile for standardized 1S platforms, delivering multi-thread headroom for dev/test virtualization while keeping power and thermal design within widely supported chassis and cooler options. The Intel Core i5-10400 also brings practical enterprise features such as VT-x/VT-d for lab hypervisors and AES-NI for accelerated encryption, supporting scalable rollouts across office, edge, and departmental environments.

Intel designs processors with long-lived platform compatibility and validation discipline that align with modern data centre and enterprise lifecycle expectations. With the Intel Core i5-10400, integrators can build consistent, supportable nodes on mature LGA1200 ecosystems and maintain stable operational behavior under mixed productivity and infrastructure workloads.

Key Applications:

• Entry workstation compute nodes
• Dev/test virtualization labs
• Edge and office infrastructure servers
• Display-attached control and kiosk systems
• Secure file and service gateways
