BEST SELLERS

In Desktop CPU Processor

-I'm blown away by just how smooth everything is now. -The x3d architecture bringing more cache is incredible for games. If you are having micro-stutters, then this is your fix. -Seemingly better than the current intel line-up -No pins on the CPU!

- Great turbo boost, feels really fast doing everyday tasks, using virtual machines, gaming, and programming. - 8 threads - Much cooler than the "K" version - Lower power consumption - With proper cooling you can allow it to turbo boost without thermal throttling, which means it runs at above 4GHz (usually 4.17GHz) no problem

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

Fast When you want the very best

The CPU mounted easily, and ran well first time out of the box.

Great Cpu for overclocking....Runs stable at 5.1 GHZ all cores. That is 41% overclocked.. Temps.. 27C at idle...at full load 71C...

This review is from a senior citizen builder who had not built a computer since 8 years ago! I was reading some of the reviews after I built this unit and was interested in finding a way to load this chip up since normal computer use was using minimum core usage. I found Cinebench R23.200, a video rendering CPU tester with ratings listed compared to other chips after your test is complete. Cinebench was not immediately easy as a download since it needed to be extracted and a ddl file was necessary to open in order to open it properly. A bit after that it was smooth sailing. The result is listed above in the photo. The test loads the temperature parameters to the max so you better have excellent water cooling with a 3 fans radiator. The CPU percentage ran at 100% for the first 5 minutes of the ten minute test, then it would throttle a bit. The first time I ran it, I stopped it after the time limit stopped but it was still running and exited the program, so I never got a number although it listed in 1st place. The second time I let it run after the timer stopped for about a couple minutes and it finished on it's own and gave be the above number confirming what I thought happened the first test. I stopped gaming after Beyond Earth stopped working in windows 10 along with all my Microsoft Flight programs. Planned obsolescence !

Very communicative

Its a beast with plenty of headroom
