Intel i7 7th-Gen: Upgrade to dependable workstation power with the Intel Core i7 7th Generation (Kaby Lake) from Golden Scrap Yard. These LGA1151 processors (e.g., i7-7700 / 7700K) combine high clock speeds with 8 threads for smooth multitasking—perfect for power users, small studios, refurb projects, and budget creators who need reliable speed without overspending. Every chip is professionally graded, deep-cleaned, and stress-tested under load, so deployments are painless whether you’re refreshing one PC or an entire fleet.

Why choose i7 7th-Gen (Kaby Lake)
• Cores/Threads: 4 cores / 8 threads for brisk multitasking across browsers, spreadsheets, DAWs, and editing apps
• Clocks: High base/boost frequencies; “K” models unlock overclocking on Z-series boards (adequate cooling required)
• Graphics: Intel HD Graphics 630 with hardware HEVC/VP9 4K decode and Quick Sync Video for accelerated transcodes
• Acceleration: SSE4.2, AVX2, AES-NI, VT-x/VT-d (model-dependent) to speed media, security, and virtualization tasks
• Memory & I/O: Great with DDR4-2400 (board-dependent) and fast NVMe SSDs over PCIe 3.0

• Assemble 1080p esports machines; pair the i7-7700K with a midrange GPU for smooth high-FPS gaming

Compatibility tips
Use an LGA1151 motherboard. Best experience on 200-series chipsets (B250/H270/Z270); many 100-series boards support Kaby Lake after a BIOS update—check your model. Pair with 16–32GB DDR4, a fast NVMe SSD, and quality 120–240 mm cooling (for “K” chips) to maximize performance and longevity.
