    I got this CPU to build my daughters computer but I decided to keep it for myself lol. Is the unlocked version, that means you can overclocked if you want to, the 8 cores and 8 treats helps a lot to run everything smooth. The build in video card is good enough to handle 4K with some limitation but overall Ok performance.

    Installed with msi motherboard and cooler master liquid cooler, mostly used for heavy video editing. System runs fast and cool but does not seem like a very big jump from 8th generation.
