Product overview Intel’s Pentium Gold G6400 launched in Q2 2020 as part of the Comet Lake (10th‑gen desktop) family. It’s an entry‑tier chip with 2 cores/4 threads, 4 MB cache, a fixed base clock with no Turbo Boost, and Intel UHD Graphics 610. It fits the LGA1200 platform and is intended for Intel 400‑series motherboards.
Why it exists: to power very low‑cost, dependable PCs while keeping platform costs down. It’s well‑suited to office/productivity tasks and budget builds, with DDR4‑2666 support and up to 128 GB RAM; the multiplier is locked (no overclocking). As of July 19, 2026, Intel lists the G6400 as launched (not discontinued).
