Item arrived a day earlier than expected. The CPU was wrapped with bubble wrap but as it has pads, not pins, that was more than adequate to protect it. Had to clean a bit of residual thermal paste but that is to be expected. Expect a few reboots of your system to allow the OS to reconfigure for the new CPU. But once done it works well, and my system is noticeably snappier (coming from i5).

I got it a few days earlier than I was expected to, installed it, let the new drivers download, and it made my computer tons faster than it was before! The CPU is stable, I haven't seen any sort of speed or temperatures suffering, and I'm happy to have a far faster computer now!

It's several generations old but man is this processor worth it. Pair it with a good GPU and you'll be getting most games running at 60+ frames per second. Slap a cooler on this puppy and you're good for a long time. One minor thing is that some motherboards need to have their BIOS updated to support this beast of a CPU. It's pretty easy to do and shouldn't take too long.

But it works great! I'm not really tech smart/savvy, but I know this is miles above my previous cpu and fan. It really does feel like a brand new computer! I can play witcher 3 with no problems and I do not have to worry about it overheating. I am a very happy camper.

I bought this to upgrade from a i5 to do more multitasking and this cheap does the job with ease! I am very pleased so far and like the temperatures it holds. (22-25C idle & 61C under full load)
