    • Very happy thank u
    • i recommend u to buy the hyper evo 212 for this one.
    • Like the title says.. this chip got all the power u could need for daily gaming or work station and the Price makes it a most have ítem and if u need a Little more juice u could put some agressive cooling and overclock for a lot more power!
    • 32g HyperX Fury Ram, 2 EVGA GeForce GTX970 video cards and 4 Asus 1080p monitors.
    • I would recommend liquid cooling as it can get hot
    • The 4100 is still a great chip, but it wasn't really handling most of the games I had been playing on my rig as well as I would like.
    • Just be smart and buy yourself a water cooling fan or a good CPU fan in general because the default fan it has sucks but just can't blow nearly as much as it needs
    • Works as it should and good for OC.
    • not as good as
    • I pushed the 4100 pretty hard before, but the noise level never got as bad as with this one
    • what i read is not as great as how it performed
    • Works as it should.
    • Had a small problem, another one shipped and everything worked as it was supposed to
    • Good but not fast as I think
    • Dust loves heat, and will hang onto it as long as it can.
    • The performance on this possessor highly surpassed its price, I was amazed!And it works as it should!
