This review is from: Intel Core i7-3770K - Core i7 3rd Gen Ivy Bridge Quad-Core 3.5GHz (3.9GHz Turbo) LGA 1155 77W Intel HD Graphics 4000 Desktop Processor - BX80637I73770K
Pros:
At the prescribed 3.5 GHz speed this is an amazing processor. It is incredibly fast. All my programs run smoothly. The OS boots quickly and I discovered that even my graphics card runs better (nvidia gt 440) which means I must have had a bottleneck in the old system.
What is really incredible is the efficiency of this processor. It runs very cool 30-32 C with just an air cooling system. I didn't use the stock cooler but if you don't overclock the stock cooler should provide ample cooling for your chip.
The processor scores a windows experience index of 8.1 on windows 8 beta.
Cons:
None
Overall Review:
This processor should last for a long while.
