Customer Ratings & Reviews

I needed to upgrade my 6 year old PC, spent a lot of time researching the intel and amd chips, this one does the job I need for a reasonable price. Any game I play is on Ultra as this processor is teamed with an EVA 2070

I now feel the power of Odin in between my finger tips. Whenever i power on my rig, the light of a thousand suns is emitted and my third eye opens. Gives me bad headaches but would definitely buy again.

This is a great CPU. All you need is 16GB of RAM with a decent graphics card and you will be all set! An 8/8 processor is still very strong and will get your tasks completed without any issues.

I constantly am running different applications while also playing high end video games on the highest video settings and there arent any issues at all. Doesnt slow down a bit

Had a tough time finding this in stock at some other retailers when it occurred to me to check Best Buy! Sure enough, there it was! It might be a generation or two behind, but still a great CPU.

I am upgrading from a first gen i7 930 and couldn't be more pleased with this processor paired with a z390 msi mpg gaming ac motherboard. I was able to easily overclock it to 4.8-5ghz without overvolting the processor.

Awesome CPU intensive work loads I would recommend this to someone who likes intel processors.I use I with a 1050ti and get me about 144 FPS on decent setting in Fortnite and GTA

Just finished upgrading my PC and I am blown away at how fast everything is. I had not upgraded since 2013-14 and what a huge performance difference. I got this processor on sale and it is definitely work every dollar.

With auto Overclock settings out of the box it was boosting to 5.0 GHZ on all cores. Excellent CPU if you are looking to push 200+ frames. Trust me it is always worth buying the K CPU's for overclocking!

Installed easy and ran great. Get yourself some great thermopaste to plop on your install with this and you'll be good to go. I bought it for my fiance's build and it's done terrific so far with no issues.

Works great For gaming with no overheating issues. Temps stay within in low to mid 40c even when gaming and in the 35c range while idle. Specs: Asus striz z390-f 32gb ram 3000mhz Corsair h100 cpu cooler Evga 2080 ti

Great CPU for the 9th generation. Better value for your money over the i9-9900K. Performa extremely well for gaming and video/photo editing. Just runs hot, like most of Intel's recent high-end CPUs.

I've never had problems with my processor in my PC build. I got this processor because I did not want to have to upgrade any time soon and its been wonderful for the time I have had it.

This thing is a beast without oc it turbos up to 4.9 with no problem and the temps stay stable about 70c under a full load

I got this processor for gaming. I would recommend this one over the 9900k for gaming

I started with a Ryzen 5 1600x in my build and I was looking for something with more power. I wasn't disappointed. I have it at a solid 4 ghz and its more than fast and powerful for my everyday gaming. love this product

I have the 9600k and the 9700k in two exact builds for gaming. The difference is about 10%. The other difference is the 9700k runs about 10 degrees hotter. Otherwise you can't go wrong with either chip .

Bought this to replace my 8350k as an upgrade was not disappointed this thing stock blows water out of my overclock 8350k even in single core processing at the time it was on sale and too good to pass up

For me it was either this or or the i9 9900k. Yes the i9 is better but I got this at the time at over $150 cheaper than the i9 when it was 499.99. This handles games just fine and doesn’t bottleneck at all.

I love Intel. One of my fav processors I have ever owned. The 10th gens are coming out this year. They will be even better. A i3 10th gen processor is better and more powerful than a i7 7th gen.
