Intel’s most popular family member is more adaptable than ever and unlocked. The 2nd generation Intel Core i5-2500K processor delivers an even better automatic performance increase with Intel Turbo Boost Technology 2.0 and is overclocking-enabled for the flexibility to set your systems specs the way you like. And when combined with the Intel P67 Express chipset for core overclocking performance, the Intel Core i5-2500K processor delivers visibly smart performance at its best for the desktop with its highest performance built-in graphics and media features.

Fully Unlocked Flexibility and FreedomWith its fully unlocked multiplier, the Intel Core i5-2500K processor allows full control over the processor core/turbo and DDR3 ratios as well as power and current limits for the best possible overclocking results. It also allows for processor graphics overclocking for improved 3D performance. Intel’s cutting-edge 32nm micro-architecture with 2nd gen Hi-K+ metal gate process delivers the 2nd generation Intel Core processors with higher performance at lower power, thus better overclocking capability. (Intel P67 Express Chipset required for core and memory overclocking, and Intel H67 Express Chipset required for graphics overclocking.)
Intel Turbo Boost Technology 2.0More intelligent, energy-efficient, and dynamic than previous generation, Intel Turbo Boost Technology 2.0 gives you accelerating performance when you need it. It delivers an even greater automatic speed increase by allowing processor and graphics cores to run faster than the base operating frequency for demanding applications if the processor is operating below power, current, and temperature specification limits.
Intel Smart CacheIntel Smart Cache Technology dynamically allocates the shared cache to each processor core based on workload. This efficient, multi-core-optimized implementation increases the probability that each core can access data from faster, more efficient cache subsystem resulting in significantly reduced latency for frequently used data and improved performance.
Integrated DDR3 Memory ControllerIntegrated memory controller enables two channels of DDR3 1333 MHz memory, resulting in up to 21 GB/sec memory bandwidth. Plus the memory controller's lower latency and higher memory bandwidth delivers amazing performance for data-intensive applications.
Built-in Visuals (with H Chipset)The visual features built into the 2nd generation Intel Core processor family deliver everything you need to enjoy a stunning and seamless visual experience. Intel Quick Sync Video and newly-added Intel Advanced Vector Extensions (AVX) make media processing incredibly fast. New built-in Intel HD Graphics delivers discrete 3D graphics performance without the needed cost and power of a discrete graphics card, and features Intel Clear Video Technology than enhances video playback, image quality, and color fidelity for a premium visual experience. What’s more, add another dimension to what you see on your PC with Intel InTRU 3D technology which supports stereoscopic 3D Blu-ray playback in full 1080p resolution over HDMI 1.4.

Pros: Easy to overclock on any P67, Z75, or Z77 motherboard. Likely to get 4.3-4.5 Ghz with very little effort and still keep a low temperature. Quad core and more programs are written to use all 4 cores. The stock cooler is okay for stock operation.
Cons: Stock cooler isn’t great, but if you overclock you probably want to choose your own hsf.
