5 out of 5 eggsWroks great. Low temporature

Pros: 1231v3 is the most price efficient choice along with 4690K.
Quad core
Can run any single core game smoothly
Hyper threading

Cons: Cannot overclock
Lower clock than 4690k

Other Thoughts: If you are going to play Battlefield 4 (multi-core games) edit videos or encode the large sized fiels, and do lots of multi-taskings.
Xeon is the best option.
However, Xeon cannot overclock.
So if you want to overclock and take the advantage of higher amounts of clock, Go for 4690k.
1231v3 - future multicore based program
4690k - single core based program

5 out of 5 eggsSuper Good CPU

Pros: Runs cool with a good cooler and super fast. Good value.

Cons: n/a

Other Thoughts: I have mine in a Gigabyte H97M-D3H and it is running great! This CPU is fast and costs less than a full fledged i7 yet performs just as good or maybe better in some cases. I chose this over an i5 and am glad I did. I have an Arctic Cooling 7 Pro Rev. 2 on it with the pre-applied thermal paste and that's all it takes!

4 out of 5 eggsPerfect except for heat

Pros: 1. Fast
2. Intel
3. No pins like AMD, they are on the motherboard instead
4. Looks awesome
5. Part of the refresh line-up, a modern CPU for sure

Cons: 1. Runs hot, even with after market cooling.
2.Must undervolt to properly get temperatures under control.

Other Thoughts: I used to have a 3770k that ran at 1.250 vcore at 80c full load using Prime95 (delidded of course) with an NH-D14. Guess what this thing can do? Using the Hyper Evo 212 and 140mm fan it runs with an offset of - 0.075 and reaches temps of 82c full load! That makes the final vcore on full load 1.053-1.058! At vcore 1.140 it was going over 90c easily even with an H100! You can see now the Haswell line-up is clearly inferior because of the thermal paste and voltage regulator causing absurd temps. Now I did use CPU-Z to check the wattage and these are temps achieved in boost mode with all cores in sync running at 3.8ghz with a wattage of 110 according to CPU-Z. This thing is rated for 80 watts and at that level it would be around 70C I am pretty sure, but it looks like they don't take into account the boost mode when rating it's wattage which is the problem here. I will be very careful buying any CPUs in the future because the use of thermal paste here is ruining Intel's thermals.

5 out of 5 eggsi7 performance and features at an i5 price

Pros: - Fast
- Hyperthreading
- Inexpensive compared to i7
- Lower TDP than i7
- Decent operating temperatures (~70C load with Noctua NH-L9i + AS-5 in mini-ITX case)

Cons: - No integrated GPU
- Locked multiplier
- Not supported by all desktop motherboards

Other Thoughts: The E3-1231v3 is essentially a i7-4770 without the integrated GPU at an i5 price. Definitely the best price/performance ratio if your motherboard supports Xeons (usually works even if not officially supported).

Xeons are also supposedly binned for stability, which is great for a non-overclocking CPU.
