Customer Ratings & Reviews

Great for the price of $250. An accompanying Z590 motherboard is only around $120 and comes with a long feature list. Can still get 100+ FPS in all games when paired with the right GPU.

So I purchased this item 3 months ago and it has served me well it is very fast and I was able to price mathc this to microcenter so for hte price it was a very good deal and can compete with a 5800x.

When considering the price gap between this and the 10900k, this is absolutely the better value. Powerful little processor for gaming at a price that won't force you to sell a kidney to obtain it.

This processor is ridiculously fast and I saw a massive improvement in my games at 3440 x 1440p. I was able to snag this for around 320 and it is an absolute steal.

Has improved my gaming quality and experience drastically.

This i9 CPU from intel is an amazing CPU. With 10 cores, you can do all multi-threaded loads with ease and without paying a premium from something like a 10900k or a Xeon CPU if you are an intel fan. If you are just going to use your computer with programs that doesn't use multi-threaded work (gaming for example) or browsing the web, you are better off going with an i7 or even an i5 to save a few bucks for a better GPU. If you are a person that likes to go a little overkill or need a good CPU for work based programs, this is a great CPU to consider from intel side.

One of the best processors out there for gaming, productivity, and multitasking. On par with the amd 5800x but a a lower cost and 2 more physical cores.

Make sure your motherboard can handle this CPU as it requires a lot of power. Also, make sure your CPU cooler is up to grade I had an NZXT x64 watercooler and it still would hit 87 celsius while gaming which a little too hot for my taste as it did not leave any headroom for overclocking. The motherboard was an Asus Z490m Gaming Wifi board and it was not able to keep a consistent voltage to keep stock boost clock which is the point of getting this CPU over a locked one.

my son bought this for his pc, he built it and he is satisfied with this, haven't had any bad thing about it from him.

Makes my computer fans work less overtime! I recently got it to play Starfield, definitely gets the job done

Excellent, I was able to get one of this on discount. Performance it’s excellent, quality, speed, and price it’s unmatched.

Buy this instead of a i9-100900k and save yourself some money. The i9-10850 and the i9-10900k benchmark within less of a percentage of each other because the only difference is the i9-10900k is clocked 100Mhz fast then the i9-10850. This CPU is a bargain for the price. Plus this out the box will be faster then a stock i9-10900k because most motherboards will automatically overclock the CPU without you doing anything.

Best intel processor to date and fast.i got lucky and won the silicon lottery running 5 1ghz at 1.29v for everyday use low temps will oc to 5.3 with ease also cache ratio is oc to 48. cant wait to see what Intel does next

Slightly slower compared to its i9 10900K sibling but with the right motherboard you can OC to 5.3 single core, 5.2 quad core and 4.9 all cores. Lets face it the 11th gen processors probably are going to be bought out by bots and scalped at insane prices. This chip is perfect for gaming and with a proper 360mm cooler you wont have to worry about it jumping higher than 75c

Excellent CPU for gaming! I upgraded to this CPU from an i5-3570k and I'm very happy with the improvements. Unfortunately, it does tend to run pretty hot, with occasional temp spikes into the high 70s and sometimes the 80s. I cool it with a 5 year old Corsair 240mm AIO. My AIO might need to be replaced soon, with something newer and possibly larger.

Very good CPU. Make sure you have a good cooler, if you disable power limits in the bios this cpu will pull over 200 watts. You need a solid motherboard and power supply for this cpu, don't cheap out, your spending $400 on the cpu. Cooler choices Air- Scythe Fuma 2, Noctua nh-d15, dark rock 4 Aio- 280mm minimum, I used evga 280mm with no issues.

best bang for your high-end buck that you can actually get at the moment. performs almost identical to a 10900k, overclocks okay as long as you have the board to support it properly. can't get ryzen 5000 series? might as well just get this and suck up the 2-3 frames less you see in some games.

A vey good cpu that goes well with a rx 6700xt and it makes a overpowered pc.

Works well! Got it for a great price! Wait for the sales

About as fast as the Ryzen 7 5800x, and significantly cheaper. Excellent gaming performance, and with 10 cores and 20 threads, productivity performance is great too. Runs hot if you unlock the power limits (150-180W unrestricted all-core load), so make sure you have a beefy air cooler - I'm using a Noctua NH-D15S that keeps it running well.
