Intel Core i7-8700K Desktop Processor 6 Cores up to 4.7GHz Turbo Unlocked LGA1151 300 Series 95W

So fast like a lightning! Windows loading screen rarely displayed. it goes straight to the login screen. Probably best with SSD and 3200 MHz ddr4

Back when I was using my 4690k I seemed to hit the turbo clock all the time with my little 120mm rad. With this I have never hit 4.7GHz on any core and I have only seen it reach 4.4GHz. its a modest turbo clock I guess but not anywhere near what the packaging indicates. I have a h115i pro cooling it with a total of 6 case fans, (4 noctua chromax, and the two radiator fans) but it just heats up until its at around 70 degrees under load and stops the turbo right at 4.4GHz. they have this screwy system of boosting a certain number of cores to a certain frequency or boosting 1 core at a time to 4.7 I guess I havent had a task that the processor thought should be run on one fast core instead of several reasonably quick cores. Whatever. Its not like Im going to return it and eventually Ill figure out how to get it to overclock or turbo how I like but its a bit stupid for it to advertise some super high frequency when it has to date never seen the need to reach.

Working great so far! 10/10

Built my computer mostly for gaming and this handles the games just fine! I play some rather BIG games and have never had a lag problem or anything. Comp start up in a flash. Love it.

Amazing benchmarking scores with a 4.2 overcloking and very stable. Perfect CPU to support any rig for a long time.

I bought mine used from Amazon and saved $50. The box was a bit dinged up but the CPU itself looked like it had never been used. I have no complaints. The performance of the chip itself is great, and it is easy to overclock.

Right after I got this, the i9 came out, over priced!

Ce processeur est très performant, jamais été déçu dun proc INTEL !

Expensive, now we have a code error that reduces processor speed? Come on Intel for 400$ this needs to be replaced.

it just good
