The best Intel CPU deals: save on an Intel Core processor ahead of Alder Lake

Intel is releasing a brand new CPU generation on November 4, 2021, codename Alder Lake. That’s potentially great news for bargain hunters, as previous generation CPUs, such as its 11th and 10th Gen, will be replaced just as we creep up to the bargain bonanza that is Black Friday. So now’s the time to be on the lookout for Intel CPU deals, as these older chips probably won’t stick around for long.

You’ll want to pick up a compatible motherboard alongside any Intel CPU purchase, if you don’t have one already. For 11th and 10th Gen Intel CPUs, you’ll want a motherboard compatible with the LGA 1200 socket, such as Z590/Z490 or B560/B460.

The latest Alder Lake processors fit into the LGA 1700 socket on Z690 motherboards, although you probably won’t find many deals on these up-to-date parts just yet.
