Designed for professionals demanding high multitasking and processing power, it supports extended 64-bit memory addressing and fits LGA 2011 motherboards. Its turbo boost technology dynamically increases clock speeds up to 4.2 GHz, delivering top-tier performance for advanced computing tasks, gaming, and content creation. ## Description In September, Intel plans to launch three Ivy Bridge-E microprocessors, including flagship Core i7-4960X with 6 CPU cores, and much cheaper and not as powerful Core i7-4820K. The third model will be Core i7-4930K, which is going to fit feature-wise and price-wise between the other two. Specifications of this processor leaked in March 2013, and they stated that it will have 6 CPU cores, 12 MB of L3 cache and 130 Watt TDP. These specs are similar to Core i7-3930K Sandy Bridge-E part, but several other features of the 4930K will be improved in comparison to the 3930K. The prices of both processors could be close. At the beginning of August, the Ivy Bridge-E chip appeared for pre-order in one US online store, priced exactly like the i7-3930K, which suggests that the difference in official price between them will be small. The Core i7-4930K is expected to launch in the second week of September. Review: super fast, great power core, some good price/performance trade space among options - We have a requirement for some decent processing horsepower, in contrast to the succession of low price laptops we've used over the past 10 years. Servers in this performance class appear to start at about $6,000, so we decided to build our system from scratch with case, power supply, mother board, memory, graphics card, keyboard, mouse, and this cpu. It installed easily and works great. Because of the detents and markings, there was little chance of installing it improperly. On choosing which CPU family to purchase: The 3000 series (eg 3930, 3960, etc) are the older Sandy Bridge technology, while the 4000 series (eg 4930, 4960, etc) are the next generation Ivy Bridge technology. I haven't seen reviews suggesting there is a big difference in performance among them. On which CPU among the families to purchase: We wanted top performance, so we chose Hex cores (6 processors) over Quad cores (4 processors). The price seemed to scale fairly linearly with number of cores, so you get what you pay for. The primary difference between the Hexa-core 4930 (3.4 GHz) and the Extreme 4960 (3.6 GHz) appears to be clock speed, which is less than 6% (probably not humanely noticeable), while the price difference is 2x ($500 vs $1000). You decide, 200% price for < 6% performance? We chose not. On coolers: We were surprised by one thing. In contrast to other Intel performance chips, this chip ships without a fan, but if you run it (even at low clock rates) without one, it runs hot enough to burn your hand. After just a few minutes, we became worried and shut it down. We immediately ordered a cooler from desertcart and waited a few more days before we could finish the build. After reading many reviews, we ordered the Cooler Master Hyper 212 EVO which is working fine. In retrospect, though, we wish we had ordered the Cooler Master 212 EVO Plus (this newer variant hadn't been reviewed). As near as we can tell, the Plus is the same exact cooler kit with an additional fan attached. It delivers extra cooling and is still compact enough to not interfere with adjacent memory and PCI cards, and if (for whatever reason) you just want the 212 EVO, you can easily unclip one of the fans and you've just saved yourself $12.11. The 212 EVO is $38.99 on desertcart prime, while the 212 EVo Plus is $26.88. If you really want to overclock this CPU, you'll probably want a circulated water cooler. Again we compared clock rates you might achieve (4 GHz with our cooler, 4.6 GHz with a decent water cooler) and decided it wasn't worthwhile to spend 400% the cost for 15% performance improvement. On cost vs performance trade-offs in a power build: To put these decisions in perspective, the cost of all the components for this performance machine was about $4,000.00. We traded some cost for marginal top-end performance. The highest performance CPU would have cost maybe $600 more for 6% performance improvement (eg 15% cost growth for 6% performance growth). This was probably a good trade. The best performing cooler would have cost maybe $80 more for 15% performance improvement (eg 2% cost growth for 15% performance growth). One could question the wisdom of this trade, and we may re-think it. Since we've already bought the fan-based cooler, our upgrade cost is $120 not the $80 difference between air and water, so we would bear a 3% cost growth for that 15% performance growth.

Review: A very good upgrade - There were some games that were unplayable when more than 10 people are on the screen. I thought I needed to update my gfx card (evga gtx 680 superclocked). Nope, turns out that the gpu's perfectly fine and can play in max settings 120hz (1920x 1080 in 3d) almost without a hiccup. I probably won't need to upgrade it for another 3-5 year or so (but I'll probably get the maxwell because I hate being out of date). All I did was replace my amd fx8150 (and obviously the mobo). Wow, smooth as a baby, no more studder. I guess it turns out that the fx8150 was the bottleneck (oc'd to 4ghz). I thought cpus were better than that nowadays? I guess not. For the last 10 years I've been AMD all the way. But now I guess I'm going to be an intel fanboy. Okay, I suppose AMD is still the best bang for the buck hands down. But if you want top raw performance, AMD won't give it to you. I heard the fx9000 series were disappointing and not that much better so I took a chance on this 4930k which was cheaper, I'm glad I did! Pros: -No pins, wow when did that happen? I was worried because instead of pins, the cpu and mobo only had tiny gold bumps. I'm not too fond of connections that don't lock in, but I also don't like accidentally bending pins. I guess these guys know what they're doing. -4.2ghz without even trying to oc. like seriously. I just put turboost on auto and it maxes out at 4.2ghz when it needs to and comes back down to 1.5ghz on idle. Well I'm sure I probably did something while stumbling through the bios. -Processor speed debate aside, this thing is the fastest cpu I've owned. I probably wont need to upgrade until they come up with quantum cpus. -Very cool, not as hot as the other intel processors I've had in the distant past. Also I suck at putting on thermal paste, can't ever figure it out. So I'm glad this runs cold. Cons: Its too sexy, I caved in and bought it. I'm hope some of you have more willpower than I do. ## Features - SSE4/SSE4.1 + SSE4.2/Streaming SIMD Extensions 4 - AES/Advanced Encryption Standard instructions - EM64T/Extended Memory 64 technology/Intel 64 ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B00EMHM622 | | Best Sellers Rank | #520 in Computer CPU Processors | | Brand | Intel | | CPU Manufacturer | Intel | | CPU Model | Core i7 | | CPU Socket | LGA 2011 | | CPU Speed | 3.4 GHz | | Cache Memory Installed Size | 12 | | Cooling Method | heat sink and fan | | Customer Reviews | 4.5 out of 5 stars 189 Reviews | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00735858272216, 05032037057592 | | Item Part Number | BX80633I74930K | | Item Weight | 5.6 ounces | | Manufacturer | Intel | | Mfr Part Number | BX80633I74930K | | Model Number | BX80633I74930K | | Platform | Windows | | Processor Brand | Intel | | Processor Core Count | 6 | | Processor Count | 5 | | Processor Number of Concurrent Threads | 12 | | Processor Series | Core i7 | | Processor Socket | LGA 2011 | | Processor Speed | 3.4 GHz | | Secondary Cache | 12 MB | | UPC | 675901246620 637958823940 735858272216 803982790057 | | Wattage | 130 watts | ## Product Details - **Brand:** Intel - **CPU Manufacturer:** Intel - **CPU Model:** Core i7 - **CPU Socket:** LGA 2011 - **CPU Speed:** 3.4 GHz ## Images ![3.4 5 LGA 2011 64 Technology Extended Memory CPU Processors BX80633I74930K - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/716p22IM2NL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ super fast, great power core, some good price/performance trade space among options *by R***R on January 1, 2014* We have a requirement for some decent processing horsepower, in contrast to the succession of low price laptops we've used over the past 10 years.

I'm hope some of you have more willpower than I do. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great upgrade for people who need the extra cores. *by A***N on December 8, 2013* Coming from an overclocked 4ghz i7-920, this was a pleasant upgrade. If you're upgrading to this expecting a huge jump, you'll be disappointed. I upgraded to this mainly because I do a lot of video editing, 3D modeling, and photography work. Rendering my raw Nikon D3100 footage with effects in Sony Vegas were much noticeably faster, and the preview screen didn't skip frames like on my old rig. The same goes for my GoPro footage, although the 2k/4k resolutions did seem to make it skip a little bit. Most of my multi-threaded apps were noticeably faster. If you are a gamer or just uses this for daily browsing and not really doing a whole of intensive tasks, this probably isn't for you. Quad cores nowadays are more than sufficient for gaming and browsing. Save yourself some money. I'm a gamer also and didn't notice a difference in any of games except maybe ARMA3. Flight Simulator X also was an improvement, but anyone who actually has been on FSX for a long time knows that simulator is more about clock speed than cores. I didn't mess with a whole lot of overclocking, I did get it to 4.0ghz a little bit and it was pretty easy but I didn't test it for stability. So I can't really say much there except that I've heard this chip doesn't overclock too particularly well. It certainly runs cooler than my i7-920 too. All in all, this processor was a nice upgrade for me. It's not for everybody, and certainly isn't worth the price tag if you're just gaming or browsing. ## Frequently Bought Together - Intel Core i7-4930K Processor - BX80633I74930K - ARCTIC MX-4 (4 g) - Premium Performance Thermal Paste for All Processors (CPU, GPU - PC), Very high Thermal Conductivity, Long Durability, Safe Application, Non-Conductive - Crucial Pro 32GB DDR4 RAM Kit (2x16GB), High-Performance 3200MHz (or 3000MHz or 2666MHz) Desktop Memory UDIMM 288-Pin, Compatible with Intel and AMD Ryzen - CP2K16G4DFRA32A --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - πŸ›’ **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** β€” Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** β€” Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - πŸ’° **No Hidden Fees** β€” All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - πŸ”„ **15-Day Free Returns** β€” Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - πŸ”’ **Secure Payments** β€” Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** β€” Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.kr/products/87385-3-4-5-lga-2011-64-technology-extended-memory-cpu](https://www.desertcart.kr/products/87385-3-4-5-lga-2011-64-technology-extended-memory-cpu) --- *Product available on Desertcart South Korea* *Store origin: KR* *Last updated: 2026-06-19*
