Processor works perfectly! Came quickly and was sealed safely...consider buying from the used section as it will save you money and all CPUs get tested to verify they work 10/10

Super cool and amazing seller. Product as promissed with amazing performance. I am very happy with my purchase and ability to upgrade my processor. Thank you :)

Für dieses Geld kann man sich in 2021 viel bessere CPU'S kaufen, der Socket ist alt, schwer eine gamingmotherboard zu finden, denn diese werden nicht mehr produziert, aber wenn wir mal auf den Preis nicht schauen, ist ein guter CPU, für gaming, 3d und editing

ich habe mein IMac Retina2015 Late aufgerustet, von i5 6500 auf i76700k, besonders beim rendern von Videos ist deutlich zu sehen, dass die Leistung gestiegen ist. Richtige Wärmepaste genommen und der Prozessor wird 60C° max. 62C° warm. und das ist beim Rendern. Also werde noch ein paar Jahre mit IMac arbeiten.Ich empfele den Prozessor als Upgrade zBsp.

For the price you cannot go wrong with this. The only issue that I found was that the number of PCIe lanes described in the documentation for this CPU was not enough for what I wanted. The specs say it has 16 lanes, but my video card alone needs 16 lanes. Plus I have an M.2 hard drive that needs 4. I almost didn't buy it, and went with a different CPU and motherboard. But, I did some more research and found that these are just the lanes in the CPU, and the bridge chip has its own lanes. These lanes are really intended for the graphics card only. So, if you look how the motherboard is setup, these 16 lanes go to the first x16 slot intended for a video card. That is how mine is. Then the skylake chipset that is paired with this CPU has 20 more lanes. That is enough for another x16 card, and a x4 M.2 hard drive or whatever. So, you actually end up with 36 lanes of PCIe between the two. Once I saw that, there was no question this is for me.It is a 14nm process, which is one of the newer processes, and it runs at 4Ghz, The CPU is unlocked, so you can overclock if you want. I put on a water cooler and just did some brief checks with OC, and I ran at 4.5Ghz without issue. However, I really don't need it and I don't want to risk burning it out fast, so I put it back to 4Ghz for now. But, I know I can run much faster in the future if I want to.As for specs and performance, this is a middle of the road 4 core, 8 thread CPU. It has the memory controller built in, supporting DDR4 memory, which is what I use, and the performance is just staggering. >34GB/s of memory throughput, that's wild.The CPU has 8MB of smartcache that is shared amongst the cores. This is much better than normal cache, it allows a program in cache to be shared with another core, when the thread jumps to a new core, without copying the data to another location in cache. The performance increase of this small feature is quite large. The CPU has a decent video card built in, but I don't use it. I opted for the Nvidia GTX1080. Combining this CPU with that graphics card, M.2 drive, and DDR4 memory makes this a powerhouse that can stand its own against basically anything. However, the built in graphics do support 4K resolutions, so if you are not playing cutting edge games, or VR, the graphics card built in is probably all you would ever need.Without going into the technical specifics of this CPU, it basically has all the features that you would expect from any i7 CPU. The price, for what you get, is really unbeatable. You can get an i7 with more cores, or cache, but you will pay a large amount more. For 99.99% of people out there this is more than you will need. There is nothing you will get from the CPUs that are 2X+ the price that you will even notice. Just make sure you pair this with a good chipset, like the Z170, and never look back, you will run so fast you won't believe it.My PC runs windows 10. From the time the BIOS screen disappears to when it needs my password is about 3.5 seconds. From hitting enter after my password until the machine is fully booted, and I have full control, no hourglass, etc, is about 2-2.5 seconds. So, I boot in under 6 seconds, basically. That is a full cold boot, not a resume from sleep.Pros: 4Ghz, unlocked and ready for overclocking (use a water cooler if you overclock this bad-boy). 4K graphics built in. 16 lanes of PCIe on board for fast access to the video card. 20 more lanes of PCIe on the chipset, so you can have another 16x video card, and a M.2 x4 drive, or whatever else you might want. New generation cache speeds up thread jumping from core to core. DDR4 memory controller with >34GB/s throughput. The biggest PRO is the price, for what you get.Cons: Would have been nice to have 12MB or more of cache, but the cost would have been significantly more. For the price, there is really no downside to this CPU.

Mußte sehr lange mit mir ringen den Prozessor zu kaufen aber habe es nicht bereut. War eigentlich schon längst fällig.

Purchased this processor for a gaming pc upgrade and paired it with an Asus Z170M-Plus motherboard, 16GB Ram and an Nvidia GTX 1060 6GB.As this unlocked 'K' version processor does not come with any cooling kit at all I opted for a Noctua NH-U9S heatsink, the case I'm using this in doesn't have a great deal of room and it fitted perfectly.The performance of this processor is quite impressive, even as stock without any overclocking. I don't really intend to overclock as I find it handles everything I can throw at it at present - but if any future game releases need a bit more power I will have the option to do so over the standard 6700 and it was only a few £'s more to buy!Paired with a Z170 chipset this makes for a very powerful and responsive pc, and editing video so much faster than my previous setup. After a 4 hour Fallout 4 gaming session the temperature barely went over 27 degrees celcius so that's also pleasing and I no longer get to hear any cooling fans!With the forthcoming Kaby Lake processors being released, this model may drop in price and make it even more of a bargain for those looking to upgrade to Skylake. I did look at holding off for the Kaby Lake but the improvements over this processor (mainly clock speed) were very small and as I use a graphics card over the iGPU it became less attractive to me. I'm hoping this processor will last me around 5 years of happy gaming until needing an upgrade!

Ich habe den i7-6700 mit einer Corsair Hydro Series H110i auf einem Asus Z170 Pro Gaming Motherboart installiert.Performance Top,Temperatur immer unter 50°C (ohne Overclocking)Benchmarks mit Abschluss in den oberen 10%Absolute Kaufempfehlung für Top-End Rechner!

Solo puedo decir esto, migré de AMD (FX 8350) a este procesador y de verdad, se nota la diferencia aunque muchos digan que no.Se siente por mucho más estable que AMD y por supuesto más veloz, en juegos la diferencia es abismal, actualmente con GTX 980 tuve un incremente de 40 fps como mínimo en algunos juegos y hasta 70 fps en otros, lo cual en definitiva doy por cerrada mi experiencia con AMD, no volveré a consumir AMD, no en algunos años.El rendimiento en trabajo, es notorio, renders sobre todo. :VIncreíble!Ahhh! y bueno, el producto es tontamente caro, pero lo vale. Además de que Amazon como siempre hace un gran trabajo con entregar productos de calidad.

Awseome Processor made me play all the Pro Games and also compitable for dual doot Windows/MACMy System Configuration :Processor : Mother Board : Liquid Cooling : RAM : Graphic Card : SMPS : SSD : Just go ahead and buy it & get the ultimate gaming experience

Obwohl ich wusste das hier 8 Logische Kerne am Werk sind bin ich doch noch Überrascht. Bin vorher mit einem i5 und 3.2 GHz Quadcore unterwegs gewesen und muss sagen dazwischen liegen Welten. Dieser Prozessor läuft in meinem System stabil unter 4.2 GHz und 4.8 GHz im Turbomode! Den absoluten Wahnsinn liefert der Alleskönner allerdings beim rendern. Der i5 renderte nur 1/8 so schnell und das will schon was heißen!Egal ob für Gaming, Office oder Renderarbeiten, von mir klare Kaufempfehlung!
