> 3 daythe CPU works great and is super fast. i didnt really want to pay for the latest and greatest, mainly because i have found that a 10% increase can add 50% to the price of the CPU. one thing to watch out for, there is no cooling fan in this package, so you have to buy one. you can get the CPU with a fan, but its a different part number. personally, even though it cost more to buy the fan separately, i believe the Noctua cooler i got will work much better than anything Intel provides.

Greater than one weekGreat CPU so far. Only limiting this CPU at the moment is the early versions of Z690 motherboard software that might not be overclocking at optimal levels (using auto overclock). Make sure you have a good CPU cooler or a cooler designed for the LGA 1700. Currently the Gigabyte settings for overclocking (bios or windows app) is pushing the CPU above spec and will cause throttling. I am using a Corsair H150i Elite CAPELLIX 360mm.

11-06-2025This CPU has a lot going for it, wether your getting into 12th Gen for its impressive gaming performance or not overwhelmingly expensive prices, this cpu will definitely put the power you need into the system your building & with the right cooler you will never have to worry about this chip getting beyond 40-50c under load with its factory tune. By far one of best decisions i made when i build my friends first pc this year.

> 3 day7 years ago in March 2016 I built my first PC and decided to get the flagship I7-6700K at the time. Deemed to be future proof for 5+ years, which was in fact was true.
