    New processor to upgrade my PC

    Ordered to upgrade my PC.
    The price is right, maybe a few euros less on other sites, but at least with LDLC you can be sure of receiving it, and on time (super fast delivery), you know that if there's a problem there's responsive customer service behind it.

    very good product

    For my first processor purchase, the product is easy to assemble and seems reliable.
    All I have to do now is finish configuring my computer to determine its potential efficiency.
