Customers are saying

Customers are delighted by the Core i7-9700K's gaming prowess, price-to-performance ratio, and easy installation. They appreciate its multitasking capabilities, powerful performance, and cooler temperatures compared to other processors. While some find it expensive, others point out that it lacks hyper-threading and is a generation or two behind.

    Two star review because I paid for shipping by Tuesday and it arrived Wednesday when I could've gotten Wednesday shipping for free. Also, when the package arrived it was shipped in a padded envelope. So to no surprise there box smashed pet much flat on one end. As far as I know the CPU is fine, but I haven't tried it out yet. It just seems like a slightly expensive item to place in an envelope with one layer of bubble wrap protecting it.

    I like this but it wasn’t compatible with my motherboard. Made the decision to drop some more money and get a new motherboard to be able to reap the full benefits of the processor.
