3dvcache! Can over clock one ccd Curve optimizer does amazing things Best of both worlds vcache and high frequency 16 BIG CORES They seem to have gotten the kinks worked put with the scheduling Not a 13900k or 14900k

- Fast! - Only 65w - 20 cores

If you are looking for the best performance on a budget, this is your chip. I built two systems with similar hardware except for the CPU - one with this and the other with a core 7 265. I can't tell a difference in Star Citizen, one of the most demanding games on a CPU.




Fantastic performance in gaming Doesnt get too hot (I use a 240mm AIO and it stays around 36c idle and 65 under max load). Blows away Intels new Core Ultra series(in frame generation). Cheaper than its beefier 5800X3D brother, but still gives great performance.



Fast and works great, it was easy to install and the new Intel cooling fan is quiet.


runs cool and quiet, the igpu is a major bonus imo, still building and testing, i will update when complete. so far sooo goood.

Love this CPU. Upgraded from a Ryzen 5 7600 and due to cash constraints did not buy new. Risked it and bought this one cause I needed more cores. This sucker is FAST. LOVE having 32 THREADS AVAILABLE.

Good customer service recieved my product early

The fan seems ultra-quiet.

item arrived in a timely fashion, new as advertised, installed easily without issues. running a perf' test shows CPU at full clock and spec, no problems. kit had all needed hardware for installation.

I was using a 3.2Ghz i5 CPU before. This new i7-7700K blows that one away in performance; with 4 cores and 2 threads per core. It's also unlocked, so I ran it up to 5Ghz and it ran fine, just made the fans run fast most of the time so I slowed it back down to 4.7Ghz. Now they only speed up for 5-10 seconds as the processor peaks. Great Value to give an older computer new life.


super neat packaging what can i say intel has done it again with this cpu
