Cons: 10100 and 4790k are exactly the same speed. Is the other review a joke? And you can OC the 4790k to beat this one. This CPU would be amazing (better than 7700k most likely) if Intel would stop locking everything.
Overall Review: Not bad if you've never had a quadcore. If you already have any quadcore of any kind, get a 6 core.
Pros:
- It's Intel. You want a good, stable processor you go with one of these. Been building computers for decades now and Intel hasn't skipped a beat yet.
I don't build my gaming rigs for just games. There's music, business, movies, and just surfing the web, etc. Most people want those AMD processors for just price and the kick that they have, but you get what you pay for. I build for the long term, too. I've got some Intel rigs that just refuse to die. Going on 12 years for one of them. Just can't say that about the one rig I built with AMD. It died in less than three years and suffered nothing but hardware problems.
Cons: - None.
Overall Review: Go Intel and you can't go wrong. The only problem that you may have is trying to find a processor that fits your needs. Cheap I3 is your game. Performance I7 and I9 will carry your baggage. And pay attention to what generation that you're buying.
Pros: Great processor that runs great without any issues. Performs very close the Ryzen 5 3600 as I own that processor as well. It runs cooler, so if you are into gaming, I would go with this chip. Intels are very stable and the 10th Gen i5-10400 is no exception. I am not into overclocking or much of a gamer; however, I did multiple stress tests for the CPU and GPU and everything performed excellent with no overheating. Anyway, purchasing this CPU or the Ryzen 5 3600 is personal preference, but they are very close and if you don't want to fiddle with tinkering, go with an Intel. They simply have great compatibility with all applications and hardware.

Overall Review: I change from i7 4790k for a i3 10100 and Wow!! New gen can blow ur mind. Perfect to gaming machine, is not what ppl think about a simple i3
Pros: 8 Core, 16 Thread. Very fast on paper and in practice.
Cons: Because of the latest chipset, you are more limited on motherboard choices, but the ASUS PRIME Z490-A LGA 1200 (Intel 10th Gen) is an awesome combination!
Overall Review: I would absolutely recommend purchasing this processor.
Pros: I own both a 10700 and a 10700k and if you have mother board that can remove the power limit.....there is very little difference. I had bought the 10700 due to the 10700k being sold out. but remove the power limit and it can do 4.6 on all core indefinitely on the 10700. while the 10700k does 4.7 all cores cine bench scores were 100pts of each other.....the selling point of the K is that it is unlocked so you can push the voltages but with the 10700(non K) being so good out of the box youre not feeling the least bit left out. Idle power comsumption is great to 30-50 watts on a 80 plus platinum psu.
Cons: Stock cooling solution was an absolute joke but most people know that.....almost immediately throttles. they should have sold this without it because all it can really do its keep it cool at idle. 240mm aio did the trick but if you want to go cheaper with air Noctua NH-D9L is more than sufficient.
Overall Review: Kicks bu**, has the encoding to watch netflix in 4k......more than enough single and multi thread performance to handle all of my workload needs......simply put im not left wishing I had more performance......
Cons: With currently available firmware, runs linux without graphics acceleration. Intel only provides driver downloads for Windows and the last time I used Windows it didn't let me use the proper Intel driver for my old 4th gen i5 for more than a few hours before forcing an update to break that with an incompatible one. How long could they be trusted to let you use this one unbroken?
Overall Review: I just replaced a 4 year old Z90 motherboard and 4th gen i5 with a new Z490 motherboard and this core. I'm currently doing well enough even with the lack of graphics acceleration making cinnamon desktop run in a software rendering mode that hogs up too much cpu usage. I haven't tried rendering any video yet. All I can do is hope that linux developers come out with firmware to match this soon. Going back to Windows is not an option as my computer belongs to me, not Microsoft.
