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

Be sure you have adequate cooling if you plan on over clocking. Nuf said.

I really don’t get why people aren’t hyping the fact that you get almost TRIPLE the read&write speeds with these new chips being 4.0 gen. The only reason I upgraded/downgraded to this cpu is specifically for the gen 4 m.2 slots. Trust me. Invest in 2 980 pro’s from Samsung, configure raid0 with them, make it a boot drive and BAM... Don’t say I didn’t tell ya. To avoid any hassle, make sure your motherboard has at least 2 PCEI 4.0 gen slots. Otherwise you may share bandwidth with other slots. In regards to the rest of the features this cpu has. Intel in my opinion is still top dawg when it comes to gaming & overclocking. I’ve enjoyed intels i9-9900k for a while now and if your like me and you want the best intel has to offer. So if your pockets are like my pockets you’ll follow in someway what I plan to do. Right now the i9-11900k is sold out, but more importantly WAYYYYY to pricey!!! No prob just go to your local retailer and buy the i7-11700k!!! (Make sure you spend the extra dough on the *Retailer’s 1year or 2year warranty!!! When intel stops this temper tantrum from the $Rising Ryzens$ and lowers there i9-11900k considerably, or comes up with an even BETTER CPU!!! Then because you purchased the warranty, you can basically trade in your i7 for the i9 for no extra cost or even lower then what you paid for this i7. So if you got cash but still wanna save a few bucks, I highly recommend this method. Besides we gotta stay loyal to our intel boys and not switch over to the dark side. #threadskipper hahahah

Me gustó la nueva generación de intel...eficiente para mis trabajos...juegos ectra..

I upgraded my mother board and processor from 7700k to the 11700k and Asus ROG Z590-E Gaming Wifi. I also installed a GEN4 NVME Drive as a oppose to the GEN3 NVME drive I had for the 7700k. I can say the speed of doing any operation in windows is noticeably faster. I am extremely satisfied with the stability and speed of the system.

Love this cpu. Paired with a Z590 motherboard, the gen 4 support is a must have but this cpu also does not sacrifice any performance as well. This is also paired with an rtx 3070 in my system and I could not be happier. I have it pinged at 5.0 ghz and it has not let me down at all. Definitely have so much more room to overclock if I want too which is nice. This cpu is very stable and I think the best value in terms of price to performance on the intel 11th gen lineup.

Works well, Over clocking was more of a learn as you go. 10/10 would recommend this CPU though.

Have used for a few weeks and everything is working good. Have not even attempted overclocking or anything like that.

...some of the draw backs are basically runs VERY hot even at idle compared to other generations (stays at 40+ C with 24 C ambient temp), but I concede I think I may need to adjust my case fan speeds to get a more aggressively positive pressure airflow in the case. HOWEVER< it barely gets much hotter under full load so perhaps I have tuned fairly well...

Item as described

The package showed up damaged, even though it was labeled as fragile. For something as expensive and fragile as a cpu is, i wish it was handled with actual care. However, it seems that the cpu itself is fine.
