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

You will notice a difference going from i3 or i5 to this i7. Very reliable and things load much faster

The CPU performance is great for the price. It also comes with an iGPU that is great for media and display. It supports AV1 10-bit decode, 12-bit HEVC, HDMI 2.0. Great for work.

This is a massive improvement from the i7-8700k. It runs faster and at 20 Celsius lower temperature with a higher overclock. The additional cores make it useful for productivity as well as gaming.

I have a ASUS Prime Z390-P motherboard and i’m looking to buy this Cpu will it be ok?

Im very happy with this

I know that there a lot of negative reviews for these 11th gen Intel chips but so far, its just what I needed. My computer was dying. I put this chip on an Asus board and I have had zero problems, other than my old graphics card dying a few weeks later.

Despite the stigma with the 11th Gen CPUs, the performance of the 11700K is definitely worth going for. The only scenario I would say its not recommended is if the 12600K/12700K is available for a close price, in which case one would have to account for the additional cost with the Z690 motherboards as well as DDR5 if thats the choice.

Better than the i9 11900k

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

Now with the i9-13900 series coming out this is two steps down from the top of the procesor market. It was just published that the new line was tested to 8.3gh. This line becomes the third choice and the i5s the poor cousins.
