    Works great! Typically play at 1080p 144Hz and with my 1080, pretty much everything is solid at medium settings

    Excellent performance for the price! Similar performance to a 10900k. I wonder how long the 6 cores will do in multicore games.

    Its without a doubt one of the best price to performace cpus out there. The problem is it needs some set up out of the box. Wont boost or reach the advertised performance out of the box which is a downer. Also prepare to buy a good cooler if you want to run it both cool and quiet.
