Pros: Great out of the box turbo features

Cons: Always run diagnostics to make sure your new CPU is good

Overall Review: When I built my new PC, I was having a ton of blue screens. I first tested RAM which passed the memtest86 tests and also tested with another motherboard with same results. The only other thing, which may be rare, is I got a bad CPU. I then downloaded the Intel CPU diagnostics tool and it showed constant errors while calculating prime numbers and the stress tests. I then sent the CPU back to Newegg for a replacement and received the new one 10 days later. The new chip is flawless and runs all tests good and have had no more blue screens. The only downside besides the hassle of dealing with troubleshooting is having to wait 10 days to get my hands on a new chip from Newegg. I wish they would handle exchanges like they do in other online stores where they send you the replacement right away before you even ship the broken product back to them. Great CPU but always use the Intel diagnostics after a new build to make sure you have a good chip.
