Revising my review now that I have had more time with it... + Outstanding multi/most core performance for a consumer level CPU. + Outstanding single/few core performance for any CPU. + You dont have to get water cooling to get great performance out of this CPU, as some have suggested elsewhere.


I never saw a computer so fast it is a great cpu


Very powerful CPU for sure. Haven't over clocked it yet, but it should be good!


Great value CPU, its good for basic productivity and gaming.

Optimized and lighting fast out of the box. Pay no attention to the "waste of sand" reviews. This processor is almost as good as the 11900k and is much faster that the 10700k. Unlock the power limits on your CPU and you're good. It's a very solid performer that will last years. With the new 12th gen, prices are (generally) going down on 11th gen. Look for a sale.




Pretty much 7600 level power and output Cost effective Non integrated graphics


65 watt but also 3.6ghz with 6 cores. Great price!

After searching and comparing I concluded that this CPU is best value for money. And one that will last for years. [My i3 lasted for 10 years without a hitch].


Works as intended, packaged nicely, very clean!
