I’m sure it’s a great processor however I returned it because I could not get a cpu cooler provided by Intel and didn’t want mickey mouse a non Intel cooler. If the non Intel cooler doesn’t cool the cpu you have non useable non returnable $279.00 junkbox item. I ended up returning cpu and mother board and buying a computer that is all put together. The socket is LGA 1700. Until a cpu cooler is available or supplied I cannot recommend this item.
