Pros and cons

According to our processor expert

  • The processor is very suitable for multitasking, thanks to its 18 cores.
  • Overclocking the processor is possible, thanks to the unlocked multiplier.
  • The processor doesn't have integrated Intel graphics, so you'll need a separate video card to send the video signal to your monitor.
  • The processor will only work in combination with a socket LGA 2066 motherboard.

Description

Bizarrely fast processor, but for a huge price.

Bizarrely fast processor, but for a huge price. If all cores are used, this price is justifiable, especially if you are going to use the processor for a long time. Given TDP is 165 Watt, but I have seen 250 Watt. Don't try air cooling but get an AIO. This processor does not have an integrated GPU, so you need a dedicated GPU for this.
