Summary
About the Intel Core i7-6870HQ CPU
The Intel Core i7-6870HQ is a 4-core (8-thread) processor built for the mobile CPU market. The Core i7-6870HQ is fabricated on a 14 nm manufacturing process.
Memory and Cache
In terms of cache, the Core i7-6870HQ has multiple levels of cache. Its L1 cache, which is the smallest and fastest, is 256 KB in size, providing rapid access to crucial instructions. Its L2 cache, at 1 MB, is larger but slower than the L1. Its L3 cache, a shared resource among the CPU's cores, has a capacity of 8 MB.
Cores and Clock Speeds
The Core i7-6870HQ features 4 total cores which can process 8 threads simultaneously. The multi-threading capability allows the CPU to execute multiple computational tasks in parallel. The base clock speed of the CPU is 2700.0 MHz, and it can boost up to 3600.0 MHz under heavy workloads. Higher clock speeds result in better performance for the same microarchitecture.
Integrated Graphics
The Core i7-6870HQ does not include an integrated graphics solution. A dedicated graphics card will be required if you require a monitor with your computer.
