Intel Core i7-9700K Desktop Processor 8 Cores up to 3.6 GHz Turbo unlocked LGA1151 300 Series 95W

I bought this CPU to relieve the CPU bottleneck that my last processor was implementing on my new 3070 GPU. Im giving 4 stars as it allows my GPU to run at 100% on most games at 1440p until I get to extremely heavy CPU games like Cyberpunk or Battlefield 2042. I had to stay 8th or 9th gen as its all my motherboard supports. this CPU is several years old now and it will not be future proof for me but it will certainly do for now. I bought the cheaper version that says like new! go for that one! its significantly cheaper and it was only used for 10 mins! and it came brand new looking!

I previously had a i7-8700k which died the first week I had it. This upgraded replacement works amazingly. Intel definitely made some improvements. My word of advice is go with this processor over the 8700k for the extra couple bucks its definitely worth it.

A good Cpu, and a great choice if you are upgrading on a x370 or z390 motherboard. It does not come with a stock cooler, as the stock cpu cooler is inadequate for the I7

If only I had better cooling

Good product, totally worth it

This was the scariest and most expensive part for my first time build, I was terrified I would break it, and even had a scare while installing it. But luckily nothing was damaged, and it works great! My graphic design program never ran so smoothly.

Rien à dire parfait ! correspond aux attentes.

Le processeur marche tres bien et grace a ses 8 coeurs il est tres performant dans les jeux sortie récemment, couplé avec une carte telle que la gtx 1070 pour moi, je fait tourné tt mes jeux en ultra a plus de 100fps (ex: Battlefield 5,Call of duty black ops 4, the witcher 3...) sauf pour quelques exceptions qui n utilisent que peu le processeur.

Great item
