Intel Optane Memory Supported
Intel Optane memory is a revolutionary new class of non-volatile memory that sits in between system memory and storage to accelerate system performance and responsiveness. When combined with the Intel Rapid Storage Technology Driver, it seamlessly manages multiple tiers of storage while presenting one virtual drive to the OS, ensuring that data frequently used resides on the fastest tier of storage. Intel Optane memory requires specific hardware and software configuration.

Intel Virtualization Technology (VT-x)
Intel Virtualization Technology (VT-x) allows one hardware platform to function as multiple virtual platforms. It offers improved manageability by limiting downtime and maintaining productivity by isolating computing activities into separate partitions.

Intel Virtualization Technology for Directed I/O (VT-d)
Intel Virtualization Technology for Directed I/O (VT-d) continues from the existing support for IA-32 (VT-x) and Itanium processor (VT-i) virtualization adding new support for I/O-device virtualization. Intel VT-d can help end users improve security and reliability of the systems and also improve performance of I/O devices in virtualized environments.Intel i5-8400, Core.

+Six cores and high clock speed equals high performance, Intel IPC is superb, Simple overclocking with Z370 Aorus Gaming 7, Prices have been held steady from 7th. Gen
-CPU cooling is hindered by TIM. Again, 8th Gen. CPU requires a Z370 motherboard

Wow. Just wow. Intel's new Core i7-8700K is fabulous and performs like a champ with those six cores and 12 threads showing that the time has come to move beyond quad core. It is painful to consider that if Intel soldered the package and allowed it to cool...

+6 core design, Great for productivity tasks, Exceptional 1080p gaming performance, Great for 4K gaming, Runs surprisingly cool for a 6-core CPU, Very competitive price,
-Higher than expected idle power consumption, Neutral, New CPUs require Z370 motherboard, “The latest i5 is competitively priced for a 6 core CPU, and while it does lack Hyper-Threading, it doesn’t lack raw gaming performance. An ideal choice for any

PricingThe Intel Core i5-8400 is priced to be a mainstream processor for those building a new Z370 based system. It should be in retail stores both online and in-store from today for around £200. Of course, we expect retailers to battle it out with each o...
