Got this a day earlier then I expected and my god this thing packs a punch. I was experienceing some bottlenecking with my old i7-7700k and my video card so I though, screw it I'm overdue for an upgrade. Got a new motherboard and this beast, I was gonna wait for the 10th gen, but eh, I wanted to upgrade now. Ran a few benchmarks and in-game benchmarks and my god this straight up destroied every benchmark and simulation I threw at it. All of my games never dip below 100fps with everything on ultra or nightmare, (Video card is a RTX 2070 with a 9.16% bottleneck, but anything under 10% total means both will work great together) with no hickup. If you already have a video card try to get an F or a KF, they don't have intigrated graphics in the chipset so all of it's cores are dedicated to processing whatever you throw at it. Keeping it nice and cool even when overclocked with a Corsair 360 rad and I sit at 25c idle and hardly go over 75c while underload or in game. Get this processor, It's a serious powerhouse.

Fantastic overclocking potential albeit a bit pricey in today's market. I've personally enjoyed 5.4ghz @ 1.355volts 8 cores 16 threads (after delidding and direct die cooling).

Been running smoothly. No issues so far. I use it for streaming and basic web surfing and tons of streams on dual monitors, CPU usage still on low to half usage.
Unfortunately, my internet does not allow for maximum performance nor does the platform I stream on. Haven't tried overclocking or video editing yet.
Hoping the PC upgrade will last me another 10 years or so. Quality is good, price is another topic.

I build a new computer every 3-5 years. This processor should keep us in the game for 4-6 years. Very flexable with overclock settings, easy to manage.

After about 10 days I started having strange errors in windows. I have been building computers for 30 years and this is only the second Intel processor that has failed me. Sadly I found this out after numerous component changes and after the BB 15-day return policy. Dealing with Intel was excruciating slow and 3 weeks later still waiting a refund from them. I used my birthday coupon code to purchase and now that is wasted. I decided to go big red and bought a 3950x and couldn't be happier.
