Core i7-6700K is a quad-core 64-bit x86 high-end performance desktop microprocessor introduced by Intel in late 2015. This processor, which is based on the Skylake microarchitecture and is fabricated on a 14 nm process, has a base frequency of 4 GHz and a turbo boost of up to 4.2 GHz with a TDP of 91 W. The i7-6700K incorporates the HD Graphics 530 IGP operating at 350 MHz and a turbo frequency of 1.15 GHz. This chip supports up to 64 GiB of dual-channel DDR4-2133 memory.

Cache[edit]

[Edit/Modify Cache Info]

Cache Organization
Cache is a hardware component containing a relatively small and extremely fast memory designed to speed up the performance of a CPU by preparing ahead of time the data it needs to read from a relatively slower medium such as main memory.

The organization and amount of cache can have a large impact on the performance, power consumption, die size, and consequently cost of the IC.

Cache is specified by its size, number of sets, associativity, block size, sub-block size, and fetch and write-back policies.

Note: All units are in kibibytes and mebibytes.
