    Upgraded from a i7-7700 and it's amazing how much faster this is. Primarily bought because I felt my old cpu was bottlenecking me in games like Warzone. Warzone jumped from 90-120fps with a 3080 up to 130-170fps Don't overthink it, Intel is still the best chip for a gaming pc. Ryzen you will deal with more issues with drivers, etc. and all those cores/threads aren't needed for gaming. Someday? maybe but they have been saying that for years

    Easy Install, Runs Great, Fast not as fast as higher models but i pull 4.1 ghz the whole time. But I do have an MSI motherboard with 3200mhz RAM and a 1TB SSD. IOS boots in 8 to 10 seconds. Both my wife and I have the i5 6 core 10th gen processor.

    If you're looking for a solid foundation, easy & predictable OC, scalablility & stability then it's 'how many $'s for which number.' I bought the 10G/i5 unlocked. Glad I did.
