Intel's processors rarely go on sale, and when they do, the difference is typically only a few dollars. However, there's now a good deal on one of the company's latest Core i7 desktop chips—the Core i7-10700F is at an all-time low of $269.99 at Newegg. That's a $15 drop from the previous price, and $40 below the original MSRP.

Intel's Core i7-10700F is a 8-core/16-thread CPU, with a base clock of 2.90 GHz and a boost clock of 4.80 GHz. It supports up to 128GB RAM across two channels, and falls under Intel's Comet Lake family.

This high-end Intel CPU is $15 off the usual price, and $40 off the original MSRP. You'll need to enter code EMCESSB24 at checkout to get the full discount. Newegg says the sale ends after today, but Newegg also lies about that a lot, so your guess as to when the deal ends is as good as ours.

This processor uses an LGA 1200 socket, so you'll need a motherboard with that socket type, if you don't have one already. As previously mentioned, you also need a graphics card in the same build, since the i7-10700F doesn't offer integrated graphics.

The deal expires at midnight Pacific time on Monday.
