    Great CPU and the price is the cherry on top. Easy to overclock, comes with a stock cooler that is decent, but if you really want to get the full potential out of this item get an after market cooler

    The product arrived, and my pc would not post with it in it. However, it is still five stars because the product itself I great, just not the one I got, and also, it could be that my motherboard was the issue and not the CPU. As well as best buy has an excellent return policy; I took it back to the store and got a full refund, no questions asked
