Intel® Core™ i7-11700K Desktop Processor 8 Cores up to 5.0 GHz Unlocked LGA1200 (Intel 500 Series & Select 400 Series Chipset) 125W

Better than the i9 11900k

I preordered this cpu and got it on the release day, coming from the 4th gen i7 4790k its a huge leap, its a great processor and handles everything I have thrown at it extremely well while only getting 70C max with an average of 64C while gaming. Best yet, it has PCI-E 4.0 Support and I gained an extra 20-30 frames with my RTX 3080 in Modern Warfare (average of ~160 fps with everything on ultra and ray tracing on). Highly recommended for an upgrade.

Works great

In some benchmarks it runs just as well as a ryzen 5800x. well...the downside is the temperature.

Got mine off B&H, but that doesn’t matter anyways. Too bad I bought mine for like $450 on release day, lol. This CPU is very solid, but keep in mind that this thing is 10nm core architecture backported to 14nm. That is what I like to call DISASTER! This is just a 10700K but with a better iGPU. Good processor, but not worth the price tag.

Works exactly as I expected.

When rebuilding my failed desktop computer I had to buy a new motherboard which would not accomodate my previous CPU chip. I researched an i9 core but it really wasnt faster enough to spend the extra cash on one.

I bought the 11700k for my gaming rig. With water cooling I’ve got it overclocked to 4.7ghz on all cores. Totally stable and never gets hotter than 60*C. With my 1080 ti it runs all games I’ve played on max settings with a minimum of 80fps at 2k ultrawide, and much higher for most games. Including Cyberpunk and Assassins Creed Valhalla.

Got mine all out in go to push power button and! Nothing….absolutely…NOTHING…put old CPU back in starts up like a champ…tf? Even checked compatibility before buying…I sure hope I can get my money back…

Cant go wrong buying intel for video editing. Has graphics which AMD does not so for many business and office programs you dont need a graphics card. No USB issues like one can have with AMD.
