BEST SELLERS

In Desktop CPU Processor

-Low temps -Fast -Easy install Going from a very old AMD Dual-Core to this is such a noticeable difference, everything is fast, smoother and even for a first time builder it gave me no issues. Bought this as part of a bundle with a MSI Z97M and couldn't be happier with it.

Much easier to install than the Ryzen equivalents!

Best for gaming, good price, good performance

1. Fast 2. Reliable 3. Runs cool

Probably a 2.5-3.5% improvement in CPU scores in 3DMark benchmarks over the 6700K. Can run benchmarks at 51x100.4, right near 5.15GHz at 4/8 on water. The system will boot up on Auto with a 50 multiplier and then with my Asus MIXF I can go into their tool and increase the multiplier and add a little CPU offset voltage In 3DMark06 the CPU scores 11400 points at 5.15 GHz

Installed 2 chips in MSI x470 and X570 boards. Both running well. 4k video, HDR, and HDMI 1.4 from chip. Allows full speed for ram.

Very Quick. PC game rates jump.

The processing power of this chip lends well to both gaming and business functions (spreadsheets, graphics, etc.).

- Excellent price/performance ratio - Excellent performance (both, single-core and multi-core) - Sufficient heat-sink that isn't too noisy.

6 core 12 threads is a noteisable jump form the i3 1200f that is a 4 core 8 threads

Temps sky rocket at a certain point. I was able to get stable 4.5ghz running 1.31v on the sabertooth z77 using the noctua. Temps are around mid 60s under load using prime. I can push it way harder but I am very satisfied how it handles new games and THE OLDER ONES! AWESOME CPU!

Works acceptably.

If you are looking for the best performance on a budget, this is your chip. I built two systems with similar hardware except for the CPU - one with this and the other with a core 7 265. I can't tell a difference in Star Citizen, one of the most demanding games on a CPU.

If your looking for a CPU that will perform like no other, this is the one! Very fast boot time, along with amazing speed from all 16 cores! Overclocks very easy, and dont run too hot with proper cooling like an AIO. I have mine overclocked to 4GHz and the idle temp is around 33C. I am running an AIO also. I would also recommend getting a higher end motherboard to run this chip!

Nice,stable processor. Good bang for the buck.

Love this CPU. Upgraded from a Ryzen 5 7600 and due to cash constraints did not buy new. Risked it and bought this one cause I needed more cores. This sucker is FAST. LOVE having 32 THREADS AVAILABLE.
