Had been on 8-core CPU's for the longest time, but I found that I was multi-tasking more and more. This CPU fit the bill and it was a noticeable speed bump over my old 5800X. It was a nice middle ground as the next level up, 9950X, was beyond my budget. Plenty good enough for gaming also. Power efficiency is still good enough to stick to air cooling.


- Fast, super fast, very fast. - Worked out of the box. - Insane number of cores.

Nice speeds Nice power draw Nice temps

Simple. Period.

It's fast enough to play everything out right now at good settings

Perfect CPU for single thread performance, which is mostly gaming. I don’t really stream so the i5 was a great choice for just pure gaming and maybe some editing.
