    Beast of a CPU that is very stable. Power hungry.

    This CPU needs a beast of a cooler and power supply to run but it is really worth it. Very stable and no crashes. Much better stability and plug and play compared to 2 other systems I've built (5950x and 7950x3d).

    I decided to upgrade my 12gen i7. To the new 13gen i9. Then I thought I got a faulty one did my research before deciding to return it to best buy. All I had to do was update the bios with a usb stick. That was it!!

    Overkill for most setups, but solid generation. Probably not worth it for only gaming but if you dabble in multi threaded workloads it’s great.
