LOWEST PRICE

In CPU / Processor

I appreciate the fast shipping and safe delivery of this epic CPU. Thanks to you, I managed to get it at a wonderful price. I am currently building my wifes very first computer. I told her id only get her great stuff. The motherboard I was gifted from a relative was a B670 Lga1700, so it takes the intel 12th gen. Thats why I went this route. i7 is great stuff. I slapped 64 gb's of ram on it, fixed it up with an RTX 3070, liquid cooled that CPU and threw it all inside of a pink case with a large glass window, and she loves it !!!!! So, sincerely, thank you tons. You helped to make my wife happy. Which naturally makes me super happy cause now its gonna earn me some brownie points and stuff. Id imagine she will start having greater interest in PC building lol. So we will be back in the future for more purchases ! We definitely do reccomend getting into building computers together as a couples hobby. We also reccomend checking out ANTonline !

good chip. low watts. high threads. 1-2 day shipping from new egg.

I was planning to get a Ryzen 5800x but ended up with this due to cost and availability. This CPU gets you very near the performance of the 11700k for 80 bucks less (at the time of purchase). All you need to do is remove the power limits in your BIOS or using Throttlestop or Intel XTU. This can be done on b560 boards too. If you're willing to forego that last 3-5% of performance, you can save a considerable amount by getting this with a cheaper B560 mobo instead of the Z590. In normal use (VMs for software development, Visual Studio) the 11700 doesn't go over 80W power consumption when busy. Using a Hyper 212 the temp stays 30-38 deg C on idle and 65-70 deg C in Cinebench R20 I have my power plan set to max performance in Windows 10 and despite all cores hovering between 4.4-4.7 constantly my typical power use is 20-50W Integrated graphics can do 4k @ 60Hz over HDMI. This is a big bump over the 4k @ 30Hz of 10-series chips. And will save you another $120 for a low-end GT-1030 to drive a monitor for non-gaming use.

It came in Intel packaging wrapped in bubble wrap. It was secure. It had no cosmetic defects.
