Intel® Core™ i5-11400F

The Intel Core i5-11400F is a desktop processor with 6 cores and 12 threads, built on the Rocket Lake architecture (14 nm process). It launched in Jan 2021. Clocks run from 2.6 GHz base to 4.4 GHz boost. A 12-MB L3 cache backs the cores (2.6 MB per core). It addresses DDR4 memory up to 128 GB across 2 channels. The chip drops into the FCLGA1200 socket and exposes PCIe 4.0 (20 lanes). Rated TDP is 65 W. Notable platform capabilities: Gaussian Neural Accelerator, AVX-512, Extended Page Tables (EPT), Control-flow Enforcement (CET).

The Intel Core i5-11400F scores 2,979 in single-core performance and 16,868 in multi-core performance (PassMark CPU Mark ratings). From those two ratings Feex computes 7,089 for overall performance, 15,135 for productivity performance, 14,640 for creator performance, 16,763 for engineering performance and 13,154 for gaming performance. Its multi-core throughput works out to 2,811 per core, 1,406 per thread and 260 per watt. Its computed efficiency index is 879. Its performance index is 88, so its overall performance is 12% below the Intel Core i5-12400 (index 100). Each bar shows the score as a share of a reference ceiling, which is the larger of the 99th-percentile score across the Feex CPU database and a fixed baseline.

Scores for individual PassMark CPU Mark test categories. Higher is better. These are measured test scores, not computed from the single-core and multi-core ratings.

In the individual workload tests the Intel Core i5-11400F scores 57,571 in integer math, 34,169 in floating-point math, 208,016 in compression, 10,224 in cryptography, 833 in physics simulation, 15,849 in vector SIMD, 53 in the prime sieve and 24,223 in sorting. Higher is better. Compared with the Intel Core i5-12400, it is 2% below in integer math, 26% below in floating-point math, 9% below in compression, 11% below in cryptography, 24% below in physics simulation, 2% above in vector SIMD, 21% below in the prime sieve and 7% above in sorting. Each bar shows the score as a share of that workload's reference ceiling, the larger of the 99th-percentile score across CPUs with a recorded value and a fixed baseline.

The Intel Core i5-11400F has 6 physical cores and runs 12 logical threads. It runs 2 threads per core. It runs at a base clock of 2.60 GHz and boosts up to 4.40 GHz.

The Intel Core i5-11400F is a desktop processor, belongs to the Intel Core i5 family, uses the Rocket Lake architecture, carries the codename Rocket Lake and is manufactured on a 14 nm process. It launched in Jan 2021.

The Intel Core i5-11400F has 480 KB of L1 cache, 3 MB of L2 cache and 12 MB of L3 cache. That adds up to about 15.5 MB of cache, or 2.58 MB per core. Each core has 512 KB of private L2 cache.

The Intel Core i5-11400F has a 3-level cache hierarchy: L1 at 480 KB, L2 at 3 MB and L3 at 12 MB. L3 is the largest level and makes up about 78% of the cache listed here.

The Intel Core i5-11400F supports DDR4 memory, addresses up to 128 GB of memory and uses 2 memory channels. It does not support DDR5 and LPDDR memory.

The Intel Core i5-11400F does not include integrated graphics, so a discrete graphics card is required for display output.

The Intel Core i5-11400F uses the FCLGA1200 socket, supports PCI Express 4.0 and provides up to 20 PCIe lanes.

The Intel Core i5-11400F has a rated TDP of 65 W.
