    Upgraded my home NAS server from 9th gen i7. I can absolutely notice the increased performance and better transcoding videos with the newer integrated graphics!

    Originally installed this CPU on my Z490 motherboard in order to test out PCIe gen 4.0 speeds. After doing a BIOS update and configuring my GPU's PCIe slot to run at x8 width, I was able to achieve PCIe 4.0 speeds but was disappointed to find out that my motherboard didn't support gen 4.0 for any of the onboard m.2 slots. Once I was able to upgrade to a Z590 motherboard I was very happy to have my GPU and m.2 SSD running at PCIe gen 4.0x16 & PCIe gen 4.0x4 width respectively. Overclocking to a max turbo frequency of 4.8 GHz using the Intel Performance Maximizer tool was quick and easy after making a single BIOS change.

    Purchased this for a server PC, 11th gen is a good bang for your buck if going from a 4th gen I7-4790k. for virtualization and a server PC that host games, having consistency between all cores with a higher clock rate than a typical server processor is also important if youre not looking to spend thousands on a a modern scalable Processor from intel.

    Did a lot of research, went with the i7 (as the i9 is basically the same thing and not worth the extra money). You can't go wrong with this i7, great value for the price.
