Intel Core i7-10700KF Comet Lake 8-Core 3.8 GHz LGA 1200 125W BX8070110700KF Desktop Processor

Pros: Beats my old i9 9900k! 10cores/20 threads of 5ghz+ goodness! Runs cool.

Overall Review: Bought this on impulse to replace an i9 9900k. Super happy with it. I’m running it in a cooler master nr200 with a deepcool castle ex280 aio and it runs perfectly. It runs at 4.9ghz by default, gave it an easy permanent 5ghz on all cores @1.295v. Isles at 30-33c, 45-53c while gaming and 86c under stress with aida64 and realbench. Won’t be pushing it past that for a while as it already eats anything I throw at it, honestly not sure why all the hate about horrible temps, seems pretty average to me. KF model works as the regular minus the IGPU of course, but face it, if you’re buying a CPU at this price point then you already have a discrete gpu to go with it.

Overall Review: This chip was cheaper than a Ryzen 5800X and was actually in stock, unlike the AMD which would have been my first choice. For games, especially when running higher resolution where you would be GPU-bound, it is still a fine CPU. I've O/C mine to 5.1, and I think I can go higher as it is still at stock voltage and no more than 70C under load with air cooling.

Overall Review: I think this may be lightning in a bottle.

Pros: gamer focused fast cool fresh reliable durable smells good

Cons: mobo prices

Overall Review: pair it with fast ram, use XMP and a z490 mobo for the best experience (msi, gigabyte or asus) pricing is actually kinda fair and ryzen 5 5600x is out of stock so this was the next best thing. no regrets and you get street fighter v, serious sam 4r, crysis remastered, for free.

Pros: good solid CPU, don't miss the built on video.

Cons: cost.

Overall Review: less costly then the AMD 3950, works well and have no issue

Cons: Non I can think of. Thought I might have issue when building the rig due to no graphics on cpu but worked out.

Overall Review: Bought this for my new board, replaced 7700k, big leap for the games I play, Flight sims. I use corsair water cooling, and my Temps are never above 65c during game play so far. I haven't overclocked it yet and probably won't need to, turbo boost keeps me at 4900mhz-5100mhz during game play and get more than enough fps. Very happy with purchase.
