    If paired with a good cooling system, an experienced overclocker will see amazing power. Currently stable at 6.1 GHz (2 cores) and 5.7 on remaining P-cores. E-cores are modestly overclocked to 4.5.

    This thing is a screamer. I get about 41,800 on Cinebench R23. The IMC has no problem getting my 7600 DDR5 To 8000 MT’s with very tight timings at a safe voltage for daily use. I believe in at 1.48V. I’m running 5700 all p cores 4500 all e cores and 4.9 ring. I personally use a contact frame.

    This processor paired with a RTX 4080 16GB is an unbelievable gaming experience. The single core performance alone on this cpu is amazing. Gaming has never been so smooth and tight.

    Very fast CPU, although kind of hard to adequately cool. I’m using a Corsair 360mm AIO with upgraded Phanteks T30 fans plus Intel mounting bracket and temps still hit 95C when fully stressed and pulls over 320 W. Temps stay fine for gaming though at below 70C. Like the other reviewer had mentioned, CPU was shipped in box without protection and was moving a lot. Expected better packing for a high value component.
