A monster.
Combined with a very quiet "be quiet! Dark Rock PRO TR4", it never heats up above 70°. Stays at 60° on average. Everything runs at full speed in multiscreen, a real pleasure.
Obviously the price is as overkill as my configuration.
The gains in 3D calculation are very important for me compared to my old intel 5820K. I'm putting a 9 on it because it's a very important investment but compared to an intel with equivalent performance the price is right.
