    Solid All-Rounder

    This is a good little chip for the price. It's one of Intel's most power efficient chips, and has decent performance. Great for a mid range build and leaves you with a decent upgrade path. Only thing I would recommend is replacing the stock cooler if you want a quieter build. I went with a Pure Rock 2 from Be Quiet!

    Great mid-range gaming CPU

    Great CPU for a mid-range gaming rig. Might bottleneck a GPU sometime in the distant future, but there's not a graphics out there now that it'll limit. Wouldn't be the best for productivity apps, but more than sufficient for gaming. The stock cooler included is small and noisy, but it'll keep the temperature in an acceptable range. A cheap aftermarket cooler would be better, though. This model does NOT have integrated graphics, so you MUST have a graphics card to use it at all. The display ports on your motherboard will not work.

    This little guy is AMAZING! Im coming from the skylake gen and this CPU is such a great value for the price. 11P cores and 4 E cores makes it installing games super quick! Average time is 11-25mins compared to hours it took it me on 4 cores..

    Bought as an upgrade for my son's PC. Good Processor for the price. Install was easy. Just a heads up, son was upgrading from an i3 and has a Gigabyte B660 motherboard, had to update a driver and the motherboard BIOS BEFORE installing the new CPU.

    This product was returned due to Geek Squad. The local Squad member i was talking to was very stand-offish concerning my situation. This lead to me returning a processor, graphics card and abandoning my path with them. This was a nail in the coffin for any Best Buy services. My local “hole-in-the-wall” computer shop did much more and actually got me the setup I needed.
