    I got this cpu for my first build and its been great so far. My only complaint is that the stock cooler it came with wasn't working correctly so I had to purchase one in order to use my computer. This wasn't a big deal because I had plans to get one eventually anyway.

    Solid bang for the buck processor in a desktop micro build. Everything fired right up, and even with the factory fan it stays nice and cool. 11th gen let me make a little more effective use of the slots on the motherboard.

    My first Gen 11 Intel Core i5 build. Not a gaming PC so no video card. The internal graphics does an adequate job for our video needs. Will do service as an office PC.

    This CPU is the one to buy. The others have higher TDP and limited overclock potential. AMD doesn't have a comparable CPU to this one so what are you waiting for?
