    Best CPU performance on the market, worth the power overhead in my workloads compared to 5950/5900 from AMD. So many sales on CPUs, don't buy retail, get it at a discount.

    This chip hits between 5.1 and 5.2 GHz on the P cores right out of the box without even overclocking and never goes above 70c on Cinebench. I feel like I don’t even need to overclock it, but I’m sure I will because it’s unlocked so why not? Use an AIO CPU cooler to keep this beast cool.

    Great processor for the price. More power than I need but the price was too tempting. A lot of processing power for the lower price.

    Nothing but good things to say about the top of the line processor on the market at this point. Just make sure you have adequate cooling because they got hot quickly
