  • Perfect
Adding this to my new mobo took my computer to benchmark in the top 2% in the world. And thats without even overclocking. Im letting the AI do the overclocking as needed so i dont get a lot of direct raw stats for that. But this thing runs like a beast. it hands out at a cool 32C and during gaming only up to 41C. I have had no crashes or issues what so ever. ... show more

  • Good all purpose processor I recommend, a nice change to be less power hungry
Built a new PC a few months ago. So far this processor has been a workhorse and fairly efficient on power. Using a AIO two fan Corsair cooler barely ever runs warm. Added 128g 7200 DDR5 RAM and this thing can't be slowed. Performs AI workflows in Stable Diffusion very well (wish the 4070 was better matched but it's going to be replaced with 5080). People bag it for gaming but i have no issues playing Bioshock or Dying light. Runs easily on high settings 1440. I like it alot! Too many poor reviews from Youtube that only look at raw gamer stats. There's pros and cons to all of them. ... show more

  • Great productivity processor
It is an excellent processor for productivity, with great capabilities and very good at multi-core tasks. Initially I have used it without a graphics card and it works very well for many games and programs. I am satisfied with its performance and thermal management. One point to note is that it consumes quite a lot of power compared to similar options even though it has a 3nm architecture, hopefully this will improve a bit with BIOS updates. All in all a great choice for work and play occasionally. ... show more

  • So glad I went with The Core Ultra 7 256K...
Loving every aspect of my system build. The MSI MAG Z890 Tomahawk mobo, the Crucial DDR5 and SSD and the creme de la creme Core Ultra 7 265k. I run math intensive programs and process astrophotography and this CPU says 'I thought you were going to make it tough on me', because it's not breaking a sweat - literally. The CPU temp is hanging out in the low 30s. I'm using the Arctic Liquid Freezer III 360 for cooling and it's overkill IMO. This thing runs much cooler than my 11th gen I7 in my Dell Notebook. So glad I skipped the 14th gen 14700K, much less heat and fast! I running two monitors, one (the 4k) through the Thunderbolt 4 port and the other with the HDMI port (a QHD) and the quality is amazing with beautiful colors straight from the CPU's GPU cores. For my needs a separate GPU isn't needed (but the new ARC B580 looks intriguing). IMO, the Core Ultra 7 256K is a winner. ... show more

  • Good power consumption for AI model training.
Great TDP and power consumption. Better than the previous gen for AI applications. Look forward to the firmware update to improve single-core performance.

  • Not a great gaming CPU, good all-around
Runs very cool, unlike 12th and 13th gen. Many issues with bios and drivers at this point, especially the igpu. May become a better one after sometime.

  • Get the fastest RAM
I wish I was able to find a 285k but i couldn't so i got the 265k. My z73 Kraken from my 9900k works fine. I just needed to get the bracket for LGA1700 because it's backwards compatible with the lga1851 socket. Highly recommend getting ram 8000mhz or higher. His processor benefits a lot from higher ram. For example in time spy when my 6600mhz ram demo was off and running at 4800mhz . 3dmark time spy would only get a cpu score in the 13800s, When i turned XMP on its now getting high 17000s . Almost 18k. So I may look into returning my dominator titanium 6600mhz for something 8200-9200mhz. The temps are also insanely low even in gaming on ultra. ... show more
