Intel Core i5-10400 Desktop Processor 6 Cores up to 4.3 GHz  LGA1200 (Intel 400 Series Chipset) 65W, Model Number: BX8070110400

Cheap and powerful.

i have this cpu installed on a msi mpg x490 gaming plus motherboard, and when set in bios it will automatically over clock itself. The cpu runs at 2.9GHz, but when i look at my real time monitors it runs mostly at 4.0 GHz Without any issues, and plays every game flawless even demanding PUBG which my older 2.6 i5 3700 had hiccups running.

Really good price for a quality procesator

Un procesador excelente a buen precio y con un rendimiento genial. Recomendado

I didnt get anything but the fan and a USB. Im pretty sure something took it out before getting here

Probably one of the best cost/benefit option out there. For casual gaming works like charm 6 cores/12threads give you enough to juice out an RTX2070ti.

It’s awesome

Used this CPU for an ASRock DeskMini H470 mini PC build. Its been my daily driver for over seven months and I am very, very pleased with the CPU performance. No gaming, just lots of web browsing, 7-Ziping, and occasional photo / audio editing and CD / DVD rips. The i5-10400 tears through all of it. HUGE improvement coming from an i5-3210M. I was waiting to upgrade until Intel substantially increased their single threaded performance. They did.

Notably faster than the i7-6700 it replaced plus two more cores for six cores total. Good price. Excellent for someone who does day-to-day stuff on their PC and work mainly in Microsoft Office and other basic apps plus games. Obviously, if youre doing lots of video encoding or apps that benefit from multithreaded tasks, a Ryzen might give you better value for your money. But this is faster in gaming than the Ryzen 3600 and even beats it in some productivity benchmarks so it was the best processor for my use case: MS office, video conferencing, very light video editing and GAMES. Not overclockable, but thats fine. You can still use fast memory on a z490 motherboard and get notable gains in performance. Low 65w TDP means it runs very cool and can maintain max turbo till the cows come home.

The CPU was packaged well. Easy to install, and came with a stock cooler with thermal paste already applied. Works great.
