Intel Core i5-11400F - Core i5 11th Gen Rocket Lake 6-Core 2.6 GHz LGA 1200 65W Desktop Processor - BX8070811400F

Pros: Can not beat the value for this performance

Cons: Zero

Overall Review: I am not a AMD or Intel "fanboy", as i buy what I can afford. This is my fist Intel system since I bought a old friends P3 Compaq off him years ago. My last system was a Fx-8350 and I payed less for this cpu than my old one 6 years ago, yet it is like a Lamborghini vs a rocket. Cinebench R23 gave my old Cpu a 3274 score and this one a 10048.. Not only did the upgrade make benchmarks far better, but also gaming as my GPU is PCI_E gen 3 and my old system the MB was gen 2. Also the games that were giving my old CPU issues as they were CPU intensive, gives this CPU little work and they play "as smooth as silk" compared to my old setup and I have been able to go from medium to ultra in some games.. As I saw in reviews on this CPU I went with a Z590 MB, so that it keeps the 4.4ghz "boost" constant, unless thermals make it throttle. As I have a AIO watercooler, my idle temps run about 30C and I have not gotten it above 60C when stress testing.

Pros: Very fast, performs as noted and now im ready for windows 11. there is such a huge difference than my x99 board and 5820 k so after 5years or so it was a much needed upgrade.

Cons: none

Overall Review: very impressed with this cpu, performs to perfection with the 360mm cooler never gets above 40C. i highly recommend 11th gen. i could of waited for 12th gen but wanted to upgrade now rather than later. couldn't get my hands on a 30 series graphics card at a msrp price so this will do, now to wait for the gpu's to become ready available atleast i have a rtx 2070 ftw3 super

Pros: Hyper threading is always a plus like having 16 core Its 65 watts & comes with copper based heatsink which i used for my i3 I used corsair h80i v2 i got from new egg for this

Cons: None

Overall Review: I like this processor Combined with Asrock motherboard ASRock Z590 PRO4 LGA 1200 On this board I can go into bios & set Base frequincey Boost from auto to 125 watts & this processor will run all cores at 4.4 & more when needed If i wanna run cool I switch back to auto in bios & it will not get any hotter than 65 watts will throttle down no futher than 3800 when set to 65 watts Im using 3 different nvme with this board, processor has no problem handleing it with one x16 3.0 video card rx-570 3200 ram 64gb ripjaws & no issues

Cons: A little slow for gaming

Overall Review: Recommend for light streaming and entry level gaming only

Pros: This is my first Intel processor in in many years. As the prices for AMD and Intel have more or less equalized, I thought it was time to give them a try again. I am very happy with my choice. It is very fast and paired with my m.2 card my pc loads very quickly. Shipping from Newegg was very fast as usual with no problems. I would recommend this processor.

Cons: None

Overall Review: I gave this processor 5 eggs because of the great speed and a very good price.

Pros: - Fast enough for gaming - Good price point

Cons: - nothing negative yet.

Overall Review: I love this CPU (i5-11400F). I needed to upgrade from Haswell for Windows 11 compatibility and this seemed to be well reviewed. I did some render testing and this processor is at least 50% faster than my 4th gen i7.

Pros: Just follow the instructions and one cannot go wrong - safety first etc.

Cons: Nothing comes to mind except to gripe at Intel for honoring the requisitions from Newegg only after making trickling quantities of 12th Gen appear in the market.

Overall Review: I've always settled for the F model because I wanted to save a few bucks since I always go for a "proper" graphics card for the final configuration. This obstinacy is now debatable (or a losing proposition) since "proper" graphics cards are not something one can buy upon demand. Didn't need the Shuffle to get this SKU since I assume that the demand is very, very low.

Pros: -Never have I seen my pc boot up this fast

Overall Review: -Definitely would recommend
