This review is from: Intel Core i7-950 - Core i7 Bloomfield Quad-Core 3.06 GHz LGA 1366 130W Processor - BX80601950
Pros:
Bought the Chip 2 years ago and still going strong. Have never had an issue with overheating (I played around with overclocking when I first got it and it was never an issue). I've primarily used it for gaming (easily handles everything I've played) but have also done some large data calculations using Maple. Outstanding job all around.
Cons:
None
Overall Review:
Even though this processor is "obsolete" it is still plenty fast enough for almost anything you'd want to do in 2013. With the reliability of Intel processors my next CPU purchase will definitely be from Intel (and NewEgg for that matter).
