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

This is supposedly a brand new cpu but I saw an orange scratch mark. Likely whatever plating was slightly scratched off to expose a copper surface. I just dont think thats acceptable for a 300+ dollar cpu. I could buy an xbox series x for that price and what I got was a maybe used cpu that was run around the ring a few times. It works but disappointed with quality and the thought that I mightve bought a used cpu for over 300 dollars.

It can get really hot, I was worried because I was only cooling it with a 120mm AIO, I called intel themselves and found out that this thing doesnt even start thermal throttling until °100c, its done everything I bought it for and it does it pretty well.

When compared to the i9-11900K, this one just provides much more value. The integrated graphics are decent enough for light gaming on games such as League of Legends and provides a nice backup graphics in the event that the GPU fails. I would definitely appreciate more cores on it, but all in all, its a pretty good upgrade from my previous 7th gen Intel PC.

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.

Great CPU using it as intended by Intel everything is stock so its running 125 watts I did use an auto oc at first and it used almost 180 watts and was hotter disabling in my case on my Asus motherboard the Asus performance enhancement my temps under load are 60c!! With enabled it hit in the mid 70s and I didnt notice any difference in performance.. good CPU

Works exactly as I expected.

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…

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

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.

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.
