Great gaming CPU....

I purchased the i5 7500 from NewEgg on 5/6 in the afternoon, and after a quick install am writing this review the next day. Had a G4560 that is a great CPU but was having some trouble running a few games without stutters and dropped frames, so I decided to put my Pentium up for sale and invest in an i5. Don't get me wrong -- the G4560 is without a doubt absolutely the best value CPU on the market today, but I noticed in CPU heavy titles like Dishonored 2, Deus Ex, and a few MMOs the dual core CPU was having some issues. The i5 7500's single core performance is just below a 4790k, and it turbos @ 3.6 ghz on all 4 cores making it's performance the same as a 6600. The 7600 turbos @ 3.9 ghz on 4 cores, but the $30 price difference equals into negligible difference between the 7500 in gaming scenarios. Investing in this CPU and an SSD has made a world of difference in silky smooth gaming performance.

The pre applied thermal paste can turn your fingers into greasy greyness if you are unaware. Also I've noticed a slight increase in noise from the CPU fan coming from the G4560....but not that big of a deal. Some people have also mentioned that the CPU fan's plastic pins seem flimsy but with 4 turns and a tug the heatsink removed pretty easily without damage.

Playing on consoles made me wish for nuclear winter.
