    This processor is the bees knees. I have it in both my personal PC and my dad's PC. Runs everything super fast and with a good GPU it'll run any game over 200+ fps.

    Poor CPU to Cooler contact. Over heating

    Not a good experience with this CPU in a new build. It does not make full contact with the Cold Plate on the cooler. In fact around 30% to 35% of the IHS in not in contact with the cooler cold plate at all. Almost the entire right side. It may be the CPU is being bent by the Socket that is an Intel socket. Motherboard is a MSI Unify X that cost $500.00 dollars so i am very upset by this and will try to get it resolved. I blame Intel,not best buy. Best buy was great as always so maybe they will help in getting this resolved. Way too much money to just waste
