Software and workloads used in performance tests may have been optimized for performance only on Intel® microprocessors. Performance tests, such as SYSmark*, MobileMark*, and SPEC CPU are measured using specific computer systems, components, software, operations and functions. Any change to any of those factors may cause the results to vary. You should consult other information and performance tests to assist you in fully evaluating your contemplated purchases, including the performance of that product when combined with other products.
Measured by SYSmark* 2014, a benchmark from BAPCo* consortium, which measures the performance of commonly used productivity applications, such as Microsoft Excel* and Adobe Acrobat*. On HD video playback, compared to 5-year-old system.
Pros: amazing
Cons: none
Pros: This processor has exceeded all my expectations. I run a corsair liquid cooler on this cpu and my core temperatures under game and rendering loads never exceed 45 degrees celcius. Idles around 20 degrees celcius. This processor has handled everything Ive thrown at it with ease. 40 inch 4ktv 60 frames a second easy with this beast and my gpu combo. I purchased mine in 2016 when this architecture was really popular and the way they thread between cores is absolutely amazing. I know people with similar 6700k i7's but different architecture, and even while they overclock my processor blows theirs out of the water. 10/10 recommend. Somehow the part even appreciated in Value from what i originally purchased it for. This architecture is no joke!
Cons: Ugly fan to start but serious cpu users can swap fans or liquid cool from start.
Pros:
-Handles everything I have asked of it, keep fairly cool at 36C idle and ~55-60C under load anddespite my bad case airflow.
-No problems in the entire 1 1/2 years of ownership.
Cons: -Stock heatsink is obviously not worth it (as can be said for any CPU), strongly recommend throwing a good old CoolerMaster 212 Evo for good measure.
Overall Review: Don't buy it on here! The prices are really whack, and have actually risen $100 dollars above what I bought it for, and this is not a result of actual demand.
Pros: Depending on the price this is a great CPU to buy for gaming. Not sure why it is retailing for over $400.00 on here, I bought mine for $279.99 a little over 2 years ago. If you can get it in the $200.00 range or less you will not regret it. Knowing the Intel road map you aren't going to get a significant gaming boost until at least 2020 chips and getting this CPU instead of the 6700k saves you money on the RAM and motherboard. Have been heavily gaming on it for over 2 years and still performs perfectly. Great buy for someone who will primarily be gaming on the computer.
Cons:
- Hard to find brand new for reasonable price
- Wouldn't recommend for heavy animation, video editing or processor heavy applications. It can hold up without issue with multiple applications/windows open but a lot of business related applications will benefit greatly from a CPU with more cores and threads
- Due to the difficulty of getting a new one for a reasonable price more recent Intel CPU's would get more bang for buck in the present and future (2020-2021 and beyond)
Pros: Last CPU from Windows 7 era, get it to power older OS.
Cons: nice
Pros:
Can auto-overclock to 4.0 GHz.
All power saving features can be disable for maximum power output.
More stable than a 6700K and lower TDP(65W)
Cons:
Not Optane(butNVMe) Compatible but MAYBE bios update will change that.
Affected Meltdown and Specter(Intel released fix via bios update).
Overall Review: It shall be used for Oculus rift and 4K HD video editing.
Pros:
- Running HandBrake with the built in 48x CD/DVD-RW, 250GB SATAIII SSD, 16GB DDR4 2400, and an external DVD drive of the same spec, I was able to rip two DVDs simultaneously in the time my laptop with an i7 4810mq, 16GB DDR3 1600 and another external DVD drive got about 2/3s through two DVDs of the same size/length. The CPU was at 75-80% and barely broke 120*F.
- Used it to mine Monero coins with my weak GTX-660 and the CPU got ~200 H/s -- not bad for a non GPU. Odd thing was it mined faster with only 4 cores selected than all 8 -- temps barely broke 110*F (using an old air cooler from my Core2 Quad 9505 95W CPU). I am assuming the program I was using only 4 so it could use more of the turbo boost speeds?
- Idles at room temp (70-80*F), max I have seen it hit was 125*F.
- Boots from a cold boot (no hybrid shutdown, hibernate, etc.) to login screen in 6 seconds after a clean install of Windows 8.1 Enterprise.
- My work laptop had a Kabylake i7 6XXX series mobile CPU (25W maybe?) and it was about 3500 points slower with the same amount and speed RAM.
- Last desktop CPU was an i5 3470, this thing blows it out of the water.
Cons: None so far other than reminding me my GTX660 is getting a little long in the tooth!
Overall Review: I would definitely recommend it. Of course if you plan to OC or play AAA games at 4k, do lots of editing or CAD the 6700K would be the way to go. But at current prices, the 50% increase in price doesn't seem worth it to me.
