This thing works beautifully, for a 4 core it is really poweful

I love this thing

This thing is awesome

On these chips Intel is using some pretty not that good thermal compound between the die and integrated heat spreader, meaning this thing gets hot

This thing plays games smooth and steady nice and cool with a Hyper 212 cooler

This thing is worth the price

The main thing works

This thing runs really hot on stock voltage with the evo 212 cooler I was getting about

About the only thing wrong with it, is the fact that it arrived with a huge dent in the box that the cpu was housed in.

I love this thing

Upgrading from a AMD FX6300, this thing blew my mind.

Clock speed is apparent, and this thing is brutal!

This thing has been amazing

This thing is fast.

This thing gets so hot that my mothers

I'm like a week into owning this thing and voided my warranty delidding it in order to knock 20c of my temps to bring my max temp at 80c using Prime95 and Realbench @ 5.0 ghz

Then just buy this damn thing and get what you pay for because it is a workhorse

this thing is decent powerful, but it runs insanely hot

This processor gives you an outstanding performance out of the box without having to overclock it, it boost to 4.5 Ghz when needed, the bad thing is, this processor doesn't runs cool, while doing an Aida64 stress test it did reach the 70° mark while using the NZXT Kraken X61 cooler

I have a 240mm water cooled setup and this thing was hot even at stock temps

multiple people complained about this problems, so i am not sure if it is a defect or just a manufacturer made mistake, but this thing runs pretty hot for my taste.

You better have a water cooler or an amazing air cooler because this thing runs extremely warm.

that way the Motherboard has the Pints contacts - This thing is Fast

When they brought those to the attention of AMD, they were told to disable features in the bios to improve things.

This thing is the best

Hello, I love this CPU, as things are much faster and smoother with better frame rates, especially when paired with NVIDIA GeForce Titan X Pascal 12GB GDDR5X (900-1G611-2500-000)

The one shining thing this cpu has got going for it

While this thing is screaming fast and performs very well you may want to take a hard pass on this one and go with a 6700k or an AMD Ryzen build.

Just wonder what will happen with intel release patch that will slow things down.

I am so disappointed at how hot this thing runs

Really recommend water cooling because if you do overclocking in any way which includes turbo this thing gets HOT

Except even while UNDERCLOCKING and WATER COOLING the CPU, the thing still has temp spikes into the 80s while IDLE

Staying cool at 39 idle 45 loaded with a v8 gts cooler and T T core x9 air cooled case.

n’t have extreme water cooling

While idling I periodically would see vastly different temperatures on each core

Thanks to watercooling, the hottest I can get this thing is

Not the fastest I own, but very close

easy 5.0g (;
