    Good intel processor

    Purchased to replace my i5-8600K, which was spitting out its lungs on the latest games.
    I'm rediscovering these games thanks to the performance gains. No more laggs when a certain number of characters have to be displayed on screen.
    The drivers installed themselves along with those on the motherboard. I've got a very good ventirad, but I was told that the temperature would be worse: 30 degrees idle and 55 max in game.
    See you in a few years for the 20th, if it lasts as long as the previous one.

    Very good CPU

    I'm very happy with this CPU. I only use it for gaming and I find that it's even overkill for gaming.

    However, I'm less happy with Intel and their bios. I use it with a Z790 tomahawk wifi from MSI (excellent CM by the way). Even with the latest bios, the default settings heat up too much and cause the CPU to throttle, even though I have a noctua NH D15 as a cooler. And after research, these problems of excessive voltage in the default settings are present in all CM manufacturers. Whereas with AMD CPUs, the default settings are fine and users don't have to worry about it.

    As a hardware enthusiast, I've had no problem setting the bios correctly to keep the same frequencies and performance (with benchmarks to back it up) with much less voltage. But I'm putting myself in the shoes of the lay user who doesn't want to bother, and I would have been very annoyed in his place. And yet this is a CPU sold for gaming, for the general public, not for people who know how to fiddle with CPU parameters in the bios.

    It's also a shame that it can never be upgraded without changing the motherboard.

    I've had an excellent experience of this CPU in any case (I've been using it for 4 months now).

    Very happy with the performance

    I recommend this processor for Gaming, I play Tarkov I went from 60 fps to 130fps the change is impressive.

    I recommend it without hesitation for games that are heavy or poorly optimised.

    Super CPU

    Great CPU for games. It's paired with an RTX 4080 and everything runs in Ultra without a hitch.
    It doesn't get too hot compared to the I7 and I9, which is what I wanted.
    Great product.

    Fearsome power

    A little marvel, a versatile processor that's as good for gaming as it is for video editing, but you need a good cooling system.
