Super fast, Zen 3 , everything you need best bang for the buck, Highly recommended

Runs cool Less power VERY fast

- Built in Graphics

Its better than i expected, much better.

Upgraded from a 265k and while not a huge performance gain in gaming still a nice improvement. Absolute monster when it comes to multi core workloads. Even using a 240mm AIO this CPU is easy to cool.


Seems to handle anything I throw at it Great for content creation Great for gaming

- Performance has improved significantly going from an i5 to a x3D chip

- Boosts to 5.55ghz (150mhz above the 5.4ghz advertised) - No pins on CPU. Easy to install. - Installed, booted. No problems.

Pop the CPU in and up and running no problems at all.

Great service. Was quick, well packed and taken care for. I will order again fom them for other future purchases

Not only has my FPS and overall gaming performance improvedespecially in older titles like World of WarcraftI went against popular opinion and sold my underwhelming AMD system, upgrading to this one. I originally aimed for the 270K, but when it sold out, this model popped back in stock, and I decided to take the chance. I run multiple LLMs, game, stream, do light video editing, and experiment with AI and video generationbasically a little bit of everything. I already had a 5080 and 64GB of RAM, but wowthis machine is a beast. I was worried Id lose 1015% performance, and in some games I did lose about 5%, but what truly matters is that I can now use my PC however I wanteven while gaming. No more shutting down my LLMs just to play casually. The best part? My 1% lows jumped up massivelyby around 35% in MMOs. Thats far more important to me than raw FPS. No more micro-stutters, OBS crashes, or rubberbanding. I used to spend hours tweaking settings just to get games good enough to enjoyand I always felt I fell short. Im not claiming to be a hardware guru, just a hobbyist whos built PCs for over a decade (RIP 1080 Ti). Long story short: if youre chasing every last frame and dont care about AI, 1% lows, or multitasking, this is an incredible bargain at $200.

- Don't have to marry into the thread ripper eco system. - Cheaper than thread ripper. - Good for AI and Gaming. - Zero scheduling issues.

Nice power, low heat just 120w, so nice

Great performance and temps. Coming from 10600K this doubled my frame rates at 4K in GTA5 and made Cities Skylines 2 actually playable with 300k+ citizens. Every other game is buttery smooth. 7600mhz XMP running without a hitch. I'm cooling on air with no thermal throttling using a Thermalright Phantom Spirit 120 and Intel Performance defaults. Adobe Premiere feels like it's running on a commercial workstation. Complex 3D print files slice instantly and 3D modeling loves this new chip

I hit 45000 on cpu benchmark Huge difference compared to my old Ryzen5 5600g

Trust me it is better than the 7700x. If you are building new. This is a no brainer. Use my PC for gaming mostly and I did notice the difference going from a 7700x. The 1% low's were definitely better also. Which makes for a smooth gaming experience.

I usually only buy amd products. Mostly cause amd is usually pretty good with their products. But this time around I chose to take a risk and use intel. I brought this i5 with a few other products, and I couldn't be happier with the results of this CPU buy. It handles my games a lot better the the Ryzen 6 core I had in my system. My pc runs smoother, and Game play seems to work well under this specific buy. and at this price range it really blew amd out the water.

yes I like it.

Fast and efficient Handles undervolting and low tdp ( max 120v set) like a champ with no issues Benchmark scores across the board were withing 15pts of 14900k under s200 overclock
