If a graphics card is going in anyway, that integrated GPU was never going to earn its keep, and this is the cheaper, more sensible buy. Sixteen threads handle streaming while gaming, video edits and virtual machines comfortably, and 65W means it stays cool on a mid-range air cooler.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eCache and PCIe, as with all 8000-series\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e16MB of L3 and PCIe 4.0 rather than the 32MB and PCIe 5.0 you get on a Ryzen 7 9700X. In gaming that gap is real but modest; in multi-threaded work it barely shows. The other consequence of the \"F\" is that there's no display output at all without a card — worth remembering if you ever need to troubleshoot the machine with the GPU removed. For a mid-range AM5 build with a discrete card, the 8700F is strong value.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eFEATURES:\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e8C\/16T boosting to 5.0GHz inside 65W\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eConfigurable TDP down to 45W for compact builds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDDR5 support up to 256GB\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAM5 socket with a long upgrade runway\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUnlocked for overclocking\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eSPECIFICATIONS:\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eModel: AMD Ryzen 7 8700F (100-100001590BOX)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCores \/ Threads: 8 \/ 16\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBase Clock: 4.1 GHz\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMax Boost Clock: Up to 5.0 GHz\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eL2 Cache: 8 MB\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eL3 Cache: 16 MB\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIntegrated Graphics: None — discrete graphics card required\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDefault TDP: 65 W (configurable 45–65 W)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSocket: AM5\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eProcess Node: TSMC 4nm FinFET\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMemory: DDR5 up to 5200 MT\/s, dual channel, up to 256 GB\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePCI Express: PCIe 4.0 (20 lanes total, 16 usable)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUnlocked for Overclocking: Yes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWarranty: 3 Year\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWHAT'S IN THE BOX:\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAMD Ryzen 7 8700F processor\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAMD cooler (as supplied in the retail box)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDocumentation and case badge\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhy AMD?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAMD's \"F\" parts pass the saving on rather than charging everyone for silicon half of them won't switch on.
