  • Best cpu I’ve used or seen anyone I know use in many years.
Style: Processor
This is quite the beast of a cpu. Also I had no issues with building this pc vs last year when I tried to build a 14700kf rig. Needless to say I couldn’t get it to even load the bios endless memory issues regardless of the ram I used unless I went with small sticks which I wasn’t about to run another 32gb rig. My i7 3770kf ran 32gb and never had these issues. Long story short the cpu/chipset and bios don’t have all the crap issues I found with 12-14th gen’s and yes I even ordered a cheap i5 12500k or whatever just to try and bypass the issues and update bios but even that wouldn’t do it with three ram brands and two cpus on a x870 chipset asus tuf mb. Well I use gigabyte aorus wifi7 mb and 2 48gb of crucial ram with room to add two more. It’s a beast cpu and only issue I had was installing windows 11 since I had all my drives hooked up and found out it will split the OS partitions on other drives and break the install. Anyway I’d say I gained around 35-40% boot speed for loading the OS with my main drive being a m2 ssd. The bios is the only thing I see slowing the cold boot down to pretty much the same as my 3770kf build with a ssd. But that isn’t a issue loads stuff a lot faster. I highly suggest spending the money to just upgrade to this cpu vs trying to save a little with a 12th-14th gen i5/7. I’m pretty sure they got the i5 version of the ultra to just use my pc for more then just gaming. Audio production and recording ect. So I wanted a beast that I wouldn’t need to upgrade for another 10-12 years like my last one. ... show more

  • Works as expected, but not much better than Gen 14 CPUs.
Style: Processor
Works as expected, but not much better than Gen 14 CPUs. Maybe spend $200 more and get the 285 version if you need more performance?? I expect this is the end of the line for Intel using this traditional CPU design (Mac M is taking over)

  • Swoon....
Style: Processor
Intel is infamous for its solid products and while I have used their competitor in the past, I am an Intel fangirl to the end.

  • Great Performance at reasonable price
Style: Processor
I purchased this for a Client build heavy into Adobe Suite. It has been performing as expected with no lag on all fronts and stays cool as well. It was a huge upgrade for her and she is loving it. I recommend this for anyone who is looking for performance at a reasonable cost.

  • I will get rid of this CPU as soon as I can
Style: Processor
I compared this to my AM-5 8500 system (that cost only 1 half the price) and the AM-5 system is faster. Also I find that this Intel system is buggy and fails to boot. Forcing me to re-install windows every few days. I finally gave up and quit using it.

Style: Processor
Still too under powered to handle X-Plane with VR at a decent frame rate. There just isn't enough cache. I'm probably going to gift this and get an AMD. WTF is happening with Intel?!
