Intel® Directed I/O Virtualization Technology (VT-d)
Intel® Directed I/O Virtualization Technology (VT-d) continues the existing support for virtualization solutions for IA-32 (VT-x) and Itanium® processor systems (VT-i) and expands it with new support for I/O device virtualization. Intel VT-d can help users improve the security and reliability of systems as well as the performance of I/O devices in virtualized environments.
Intel® Virtualization Technology (VT-x)
With Intel® Virtualization Technology (VT-x), a hardware platform can be utilized as multiple "virtual" platforms. It provides enhanced manageability through reduced downtime and maintains productivity by shifting computing tasks into separate partitions.
Intel® 64
In conjunction with the appropriate software, the Intel® 64 architecture enables 64-bit processing on servers.

Source: Digitec GalaxusThe Intel Core i7-12700K delivers a top performance in the test and can convince all around. Naturally, the integrated graphics unit can only be used for gaming to a very limited extent. But in combination with a current high-end graphics card, its performance level is on par with that of the more expensive Intel Core i9-12900...
The Intel Core i7-12700KF is only marginally slower than the Core i9-12900KF in gaming, requires less power and costs over 200 euros less. In terms of gaming performance, acquisition costs and efficiency, it can beat its direct competitor, the Ryzen 9 5900X; only in application performance does AMD still have the edge on average. Current price: 405 euros
