Works well, is great for a gaming configuration if you don't want to put too much into the processor.
Coupled with a Noctua NH-D15, I never exceed 68 degrees, whether I'm playing games or using resource-hungry applications. Very good price/performance ratio. I'd definitely recommend it.
Honestly, it's perfect, I don't have any heating problems as I've read with some people. I use a Noctua NH D15, which must work in my favour, but it really struggles to reach 70degrees, you really have to run stress tests for that!
As for the rest, it handles everything like a champ, it's my first Intel and I don't regret it at all!
Once the more or less native and Windows-compatible bloatware has been eliminated, performance stabilises at average values for the model, and is satisfactory in all circumstances. This behaviour is proof of a high level of synergy with the rest of the hardware, in particular with initiatives from Microsoft and Intel, and also from the motherboard manufacturer with UEFI IA, which seek to minimise power consumption that is nonetheless constantly increasing. Some fine-tuning ahead.
for a mid-range 13600 k + 3600ti + ventirad + Thermalright Peerless Assassin 120 + 750 w power supply + 32 go ddr4 no worries
