<![CDATA[Intel has a wide variety of many hardware options for a computer. Out of all of the things that they produce and manufacture, Intel is most commonly known for their CPU’s (Central Processing Unit). Out of the two brands of CPU’s (Intel and AMD) Intel has better and more efficient CPU’s than the opposing CPU brand, AMD. The Intel CPU’s have a better performance rating than the AMD CPU’s.

Intel was founded by Gordon E. Moore and Robert Noyce on July 18, 1968. Their headquarters is located in Santa Clara, California.
The Intel Core i7-7700 Kaby Lake is a 7th generation CPU that Intel produces. I believe that this CPU is a good option for many different motherboards. This Central Processing Unit has a lot of capabilities for many different motherboards. Having a pretty average clock speed and a high amount of cache, makes this CPU have a very good performance.
 
Specifications: 

• Clock Speed:
  • Base: 3.60 GHz
  • Max Turbo: 4.20 GHz
• Cache:
  • L1: 4 x 32KB Instruction and 4 x 32KB Data
  • L2: 4 x 256KB
  • L3: 1 x 8MB  
• Socket Type:
  • LGA 1151
• Number of Processors and Threads:
  • 4 cores (Quad Core)
  • 8 threads
• Passmark Rating:
  • 10818 (Higher is better)

After going through all these specifications of this central processing unit, makes this a very high end CPU. This would be good for many different purposes for a computer. Weather you are just using it as a home computer, a business computer, or even a gaming computer. Even though this processor is quite pricey, it is worth it. It has a high performance rating and it shows.
