A wonderful CPU
A great CPU, fast and reliable. I tested it at clock speeds of up to 3.6 GHz and it preforms without issue under stress. Only downside is that it runs very hot at 100% usage even at low frequencies, although I understand it was designed to safely tolerate core temperatures of up to 80 C* or more, a performant custom cooler is still recommended. The bios offers a base clock multiplier ranging between 16x and 24x (25x with Intel Turbo Boost) offering a wide variety of frequency steps for the system to work with. I recommend it for servers and desktops alike.
