Compatibility
Information on Core i3-9100F and Core i3-10100F compatibility with other computer components: motherboard [look for socket type], power supply unit [look for power consumption] etc. Useful when planning a future computer configuration or upgrading an existing one. Note that power consumption of some processors can well exceed their nominal TDP, even without overclocking. Some can even double their declared thermals given that the motherboard allows to tune the CPU power parameters.
