An absolute beast of a CPU. Literally can’t throw anything at this CPU to even get it to 50% utilization. Better than the 11 series by a long shot and amazing for gaming or work related tasks. I’ll always be an intel fan until AMD can make their platform way more stable.

What can I say it is reliable however does not come with a cooler which is okay because if you think you may some day overclock it then stock coolers are not sufficient. And if you are not overclocking or ever save yourself some bucks and go with the F

Everything I was looking for in a CPU. Get this over the i5 if you are debating. $100 more may seem like a lot, but with 8 core 16 thread, this thing will have a big advantage over the i5 in a few years.

Super fast CPU, very powerful. Handles high end multitasking, multithreaded applications, graphics editing, and live streams without breaking a sweat. Price to performance ratio is slightly better with the AMD Ryzen, but an incredibly power CPU regardless.

Saved me from wanting to scrap my pc build. Started with a ryzen 5 5600x and nothing but problems. Couldnt recognize ssd, random restarts when playing warzone, watching anime, running emulators. once i switched over to intel ive enjoyed my pc 100 times more.

8 cores is definitely the best choice for people like me looking for a balance of gaming and productivity. I paired it with my 3070 and I game all high settings over 100fps. As for productivity I notice a performance increase when rendering and multitasking.

The processor is what I wanted to upgrade with. I had the the Core Duo processor since 2008. It had gotten a bit slow after the years. It was time to upgrade to this. o far the computer is faster and boots up a great deal faster. No complaints so far.

This was my CPU of choice for my first PC build. Works great with my other hardware and is easy to tune using Intel's XTU software. Sits with an MSI motherboard and EVGA 280 mm AIO cooling. Bought at $309 thanks to Best Buy's price match program.

Great for gaming, no issues, feels like the smarter choice at the moment over 11700k due to price and having to switch to a more expensive Z590 board with the 12000 series just around the corner. Overall happy with my purchase.

I wasn't inclined on purchasing a 10900K. My motherboard keeps this CPU running without time limits. Speeds are sustained at around 5 GHz even when not under load. Using a Noctua cooler really helps keeps this CPU temps to minimum at idle, 29-33 degrees Celsius. Only complaint is that its too expensive.

Quite honestly, what a strange time we live in when Intel is the budget option and AMD is slowly taking over the old mantle. That being said, this CPU is extremely good for what it is valued at (320 at the time of writing this).

My computer had its main board fail right as I was starting my taxes. The timing was terrible, but the new brains for my computer are much faster. Seems to be working great and is much faster that the old cpu was.

Wanted the i9-11900k but was out of stock, same with the 10900k. Only one available when building my pc locally was the 10700k. Overall a great cpu, far better performance gaming than my r7-2700x.
