Intel CPU IDs - the alphabetic character(s) suffix
-
Intel uses an ID scheme where significantly different CPUs may have the same ID, up to the last character(s), such as i7-11700K, i7-11700KF, i7-11700T and i7-11700F - and even a plain i7-11700 with no alphabetic suffix at all. I take for granted that the suffixes are not chosen at random. The K, F and T (and several other suffixes on other chips) must have some specific meaning. Where can I find a complete list explaining the meaning of them? Also: i3, i5, i7 and i9: Are these labels directly associated with a well defined set of properties, or is the rule simply that 'higher number is better'? (When I bought my first i7, many years ago, one i7 characteristic was three memory channels - that certainly is no longer true!)

K: they have the overclock pin enabled, allowing for finer control on the inner clock at the risk of the user. They're the most prized amongst hardcore gamers. F: no on-board GPU. U: should be an old model with half the cores and less power consumption, they were used on laptops. T: have lower base clocks to consume less power and require less cooling.

Most likely on Intel's website.

I always thought that the suffixes defined in which units the CPU temperature was measured. K -> Kelvin F -> Fahrenheit T -> Telsius
I have lived with several Zen masters - all of them were cats. His last invention was an evil Lasagna. It didn't kill anyone, and it actually tasted pretty good.

Certainly. Without success. But the Intel website is large, and I would say: Not very intuitively structured. I may not have found the right search terms. Actually, I was considering phrasing my initial post like: What are the proper search terms to use on the Intel website to find information about ....? That is like when you ask for som help, and the only help you get is like "Why don't you just *** google it?" Yeah, why didn't I just hide for myself in a corner, without disturbing anyone else? Every man is an island, or should learn to be. Fair enough. I am gradually learning by doing. ("Doing" in the sense: hoping for help from others.)

I typed "intel processor names" into Google, and the first returned item was : Intel® Processor Names, Numbers and Generation List[^]. I really don't understand why so many people seem to have so much trouble with simple internet searches.

Subtract some number from the fahrenheit value, and divid by your shoe size. ;P
...and to the power of the length of your nose. Measured in Tentimeters. :-)

For temperature it would be Tentigrade?

Exactly, That's what I meant! Telsius. :-)

Why? When you make a mistake in life (take it from someone who has made countless) use it as an opportunity to learn from it.
An old warrior is fearsome not because he didn't make any error, but because he made many - and survived them all.
