    I reluctantly give this product 5 stars, not because there is anything wrong with the product itself, but instead because of the stock heatsink provided. It's horrible, to say the least.Upon booting my PC after installation the fan wound up, into what I can only imagine was the fastest RPM it could pull. During this wind up, it made the most horrible noise, as if a race car was driving through my house. Once it leveled out at roughly 37c, the fan lowered its RPM's, but it was still incredibly loud, I could hear it over the YouTube videos about replacement options for said fan.When I tried to run Rainbow Six: Siege, the CPU heated up to 105c, and averaged 100c. This was without any overclocking, 16gb RAM, and an R9 390x, plus 2 extra fans in my case.I realized that for any CPU usage, a air cooler just wouldn't do for this CPU. I immediately bought a Corsair Hydro H100i GTX. Upon installation/boot, I didn't hear a whisper of a noise. The CPU idles at around 27c, and running Rainbow Six: Siege/Assassin's Creed: Syndicate/GTA V/Fallout 4 (All on ultra settings) - the CPU never exceeded 60c, and idles around 55c for said games.So the product is incredible, it is what's on the box. The downside is, please do your research for a proper cooling solution that will fit your case. There is no way that the stock cooler will work in any condition at all, and it's literally pointless for them to include it.I debated on leaving 4 stars, because I feel that the product should be marketed in a way to let people know upfront that they will have to invest in a decent cooler (more expenses down the line) to get the product to function as intended. But, I gave it 5 stars because it's just that good of a CPU.

    I don't usually go all out in my builds but this time I found a great deal on a 4790k a year back and after a year of using it I'm extremely satisfied. It handles everything I throw at it at low temperatures and with no errors I can trace to it whatsoever or any incompatabilities. I've been an AMD faithful for a long time but I just couldn't keep buying their insufficient high-end cpus any longer after my experience with the high end phenoms overheating on a liquid cooler. Intel has them beat for now, and continues to pull ahead.

    This is supposed to be about as fast as you can get with the current generation of processors. With the low price that Amazon Prim was offering, I had no excuse not to get the best. I picked it up with a medium grade Gigabyte MB and WOW. I had pulled my aging first generation i5-760 along with it's gigabyte MB and honestly expected quite a boost in every category between the two. What I didn't expect was just how large a difference it was in real world application.Every aspect of day to day computing was multitudes faster than it had been. Everything from booting, opening applications, heavy multi-tasking, etc. was so much faster that I often found myself trying to find things to accomplish to fill in down time ... something I can't remember ever having with my old system.It has greatly increased my ability to substantially increase my intelligence with the added Youtube and Chive time I know have.The one lesson I truly learned with this exerciser was that obtaining the best is not always the most expensive route to take.

    Overall a great processor, I have it overclocked to 4.6 on a Noctua NH-D14 with 3 fans mounted. About 65C on full load after 3 hours. Would definitely recommend!

    not much else to say. Intel always delivers. This right here is powerful. Intel intensive games runs maxed out, video editing works great. With this, I think I will not have to upgrade anytime soon. Great investment.

    Uhh, I have never owned anything this fast in my life. It's amazing. I'm not a gamer, but I might just have to turn into one. If you are shopping (around the end of 2015) and on a bit of a budget, save your pennies for this one. It's a great processor.

    awesome processor. it does however come with a terrible fan, so I just used the CoolerMaster Hyper 212EVO. Amazing, brings the temp right back down to good levels and it's way less expensive than, for ex, water coolers.
