Product overview
Launched in March 2021 as part of Intel’s 11th‑gen Core Rocket Lake family, the Core i7‑11700KF pairs 8 cores/16 threads with a 3.6 GHz base and up to 5.0 GHz boost. It drops into LGA1200 boards and is best matched with 500‑series chipsets; select 400‑series models work after BIOS updates. Intel now lists this SKU as discontinued.
Positioned as a high_end i7, it targets builders who want strong gaming and creator capability without jumping to an i9. It’s well suited to 1080p/1440p gaming, streaming, and light video editing, with DDR4‑3200 and PCIe 4.0 support for fast GPUs and NVMe drives. Unique: KF means no iGPU; K denotes an unlocked multiplier.
