Description

The Intel Core i5 8400 has an LGA 1151 (8th + 9th-gen Intel) socket. Make sure your motherboard has the same socket, otherwise your processor won't work.

The Intel Core i5 8400 is suitable for casual gamers and photographers. The mid-range model of the 8th-generation Intel Core processors has 6 cores. This means you can easily do multiple things at the same time. For example, edit multiple photos at once, or play a game while also streaming. With a clock speed of 2.8GHz, this all happens quickly as well. The CPU has an integrated video chip, so you don't need a separate video card.

Good CPU for a good price

  • Good performances
  • Good graphics for a CPU
  • 6 cores
  • Included cooler could be better

I mainly use this CPU for gaming, and I don't regret my purchase for a second. This processor can easily keep several programs open at the same time, I was always told to stream it is best to go for an Intel core i7, but this CPU can also handle this perfectly. The only downside is the CPU cooler, it works relatively well all in all and since you can't overclock this CPU, it can be used well, but I prefer the processor to be a bit cooler.

Perfect I5 Core for Gaming!

  • Easy to install
  • The standard supplied fan will certainly suffice, I myself have chosen the extra option to take an even larger fan for even more gaming fun.
  • Good price.

Great update, I had it together with the be quiet! Ordered Dark Rock Pro 4 and together this is definitely a top product for my Game PC
