A good cpu, it is what it says it is and what everyone else says.I got it because it was the most popular/liked among pc gamers onlineI am more than happy with this one and glad I didn't spend extra on the more expensive ones because I don't need them. Hooray for me. Happy shopping :)

It's very fast and a great value. Hard to say much more about it than that.My one complaint is that it runs VERY HOT with the stock fan/heat sink installed. Even without overclocking, the stock cooler couldn't keep it under 90-95C at full load, which is totally unacceptable. I reseated it and cleaned/reapplied thermal compound multiple times just to make sure it wasn't my mistake. A gigantic third party heat sink (Cooler Master Hyper 212 EVO) brought the temperature down to about 65C, which seems to be about as good as it gets for this processor without liquid cooling. It's not a huge additional expense, but it makes me wonder why they include the stock cooler at all. It's just extra stuff to throw away, and I bet it could have been a few bucks cheaper without it.
Awesome processor very fast. I can run windows 8.1 pro and a virtual machine with both being snappy. Very good and would really recommend this one to anyone.

I LOVE LOVE LOVE this processor! I don't think I can ever go to anything other than Intel! Definitely worth paying the extra rather than going cheap with AMD.
