    Great cpu, it feels like it wants to be overclocked so badly.

    at 4.0 ghz stock, this thing is about as good a processor for games as money can currently buy since games rely more on frequency of cores than number of cores. 4 cores is plenty. shows up as 8 threads in windows.

    This has worked great with no issues. The packaging was good and arrived timely. Thank you.

    This is a powerhouse of a processor. I wasn't ready to make the jump to more than a quad core yet, and I felt this was the best option for me. In gaming it performs exceptionally. In programming, it let's my IDE compile super fast. I can't comment on the stock fan because I didn't use it. At stock speed with liquid cooling, I'm floating around 30 degrees Celsius.

    Very happy with this purchase.

    Running it a 4.5 GHz with absolutely no heat build up whatever. Programs that maxed my old Pentium PC now run with under 12% CPU performance.

    Its fast, really fast. Software is always 2-3 years behind the hardware so I am hopeful that code will be updated to maximize the potential of this processor.I am comming from a Core 2 Quad 6600 so its a nice little speed improvement. Proof that processor does not make the gaming system, the GPU does.

    Processor was easy to install and compatible with many LGA1150 motherboards. The K line of processors is intended for overclocking enthusiasts, so I can only assume it is well made but more expensive. It comes with a low profile heat sink as do most (perhaps all?) boxed processsor chips. If you think (as I did) that you'll also need an expensive after-market cooler, that may not be the case. The chip supports dual channel memory and at least up to 64GB RAM.Overall, I researched what I wanted and got what I expected. No complaints.

    After having a laptop with a 1.5 gHz processor in it, this is one of the best things I bought. It runs nice and I still have no quarrels with it after a month of heavy use.

    Simply one of the best CPUs on the market. Huge single-thread performance (tops cpubenchmark) and overclocking capabilities make this chip a winner.
    Box includes a cooler, but throw it away.

    Best 1150 CPU your money can buy right now, Gaming + Streaming never goes over 11% CPU utilization. That's playing games on ultra and streaming 60fps @ 720p without a dedicated capture card. Using a Corsair h100i closed loop liquid cooler CPU temps never exceed 38c. I Recommend this to anyone that is trying to determine to either go with the cheaper i5 or this, GO WITH THIS i7!
