50% chance it will work but not CPU problem, the problem is the pins on the socket on the ASUS P7P55D motherboard, this particular type of MOBO is prone to have slightly bent pins, that gives you errors, for example, the memory controller may see only 1/2 of the memory you have installed, it happened to me on the computer I wished to upgrade, fortunately I had another identical computer, where the CPU worked fine. It is a nice 30% increase on speed wrt the i5-750 I had on it.

Intel Core i7-870 CPU has been installed in my old Dell Inspiron 580 for about 1 month now and it's running great! Very happy with the upgrade from the original Core i3 processor. Highly recommend the upgrade. Also upgraded the RAM to 16GB, installed a new SSD hard drive, and a GeForce GTX-650 graphics card.

Th Intel Core i7 is great, it made my computer a little faster that it was before (converted from i3), an important factor for the success of the change is I increase the computer's memory to 16GB . Now Office 2017 suite (including Outlook) work perfectly smooth. the new CPU gave my computer the power , and performance I needed.

This upgrade along with additional memory and a new video card was a perfect fix for my sluggish PC. I recently learned that there are more than one flavor of the I7 processor, the ones that have built in video support and ones that don't. My motherboard has a built in video chipset with a display port/vga port built in. The processor that I received, did not support the on-motherboard video hardware. Once I installed the new PCI-Express video adapter, I was in tall cotton!

System is extremely responsive with this CPU installed. Two more cores and four more threads compared to the i3-530. Great buy.

I have an elderly P55 motherboard and this CPU doubled the speed of the machine. It brings it close to modern Intel offerings, considering Intel has not done much in 8 years. Doubling the speed of processors doesn't make a machine fly. That's all they have done.

Works very well as for the price...for the life of me I don't understand why 1st gen 1156 chips are selling so high...i recommend shopping around..as for the chip itself it's a great chip and I had no problems with it..but if you can find a xeon x3470 which is the same chip I would recommend that as you can get it for about 30-40 bucks

Easy installation and really improved my old computer's speed and performance.

I've had the processor for about two weeks and it's great! I upgraged from the dual core i5 650 to this higher end CPU. Even though it's only a first generation i7 I can still feel the porformance difference. Delivery was prompt and on time, the packaging was well done and protected the product on its journey. After opening it I found that the processor hardly had a scratch on it, not that it mattered much since it would be hidden away in the computer's underbelly, it was nice though.
