Best bang for the buck Intel CPU I've seen to date
First off I have to thank B&H for having this CPU in stock and NOT trying to price gouge at 3x the normal price like some of the other vendors when the supply started getting scarce around the beginning of the year. As for the CPU it outperformed my old i7-4790K @ 4.6GHz on IntelBurnTest by a decent margin and is an all around performer effortlessly taking whatever I threw at it all while staying cool (60 C max, 40 C average, 30 C Idle) with air cooling. To bad I couldn't keep it because the PC I built was for someone else. Maybe next time.

Runs hot
After getting everything up and running, noticed high temps. Reconfigured the setup, lowered the temps, but this processor does not like to be overclocked. Intel and board makers should make this processor more compatible with previous system designs. only partly pleased with the upgrade!!!! Thinking of reverting to my way old system as this thing does not provide great improvements. I've been building my own systems since the 80"s (do you remember DOS 1. Never encountered some much trouble.

Fast
AMD has to force Intel to do what they should have done a while back. The processor is very fast and it doesn't take time for you to notice it. My application are moving faster (Office Applications), even my games are even better. I did the pre-order thing with B&H got mine in 27 days and it is what the wait.

Same performanceas I7 6700k overclocked
Great cpufor $200 with performance equivalent to a overclocked i7 6700k which still sells for $300 and requires aftermarket cooler. the stock cooler in a budget case allows the cpu to go no higher than 73c at absolute max load.

Changed my life
Coming from the older generation AMD CPU's, this one has changed my life. Lightning quick, decent at mulit-tasking as well. My gaming experience has changed forever.

Best deal on the internet!
I just got a cheap 300 series mobo and wanted to put the best processor fur under $200. B&H had the best deal by far for $185 with free shipping.

Amazing budget processor..
For the price, nothing beats it. I can't comment on the stock cooling setup, as I used an aftermarket cooler. Couldn't be happier with it!
