Review on Powerful Intel Core i7-3770K Quad-Core Processor with 8MB Cache and LGA 1155 Compatibility - BX80637I73770K by Avut Sookjit ᠌

Revainrating 5 out of 5

I am one hundred percent satisfied with the purchase, I recommend this product to everyone.

With overclocking, I haven’t bothered much yet, because. I took all the pieces of iron in the computer (collected less than a month ago) with a margin, except for the video. for home use, of course, with a huge margin, which immediately catches the eye. Well, actually this is what I needed, because. such a stone will last for 3-4 years ahead without loss of performance in games and other resource-intensive applications. And as for the price difference with the 3770 simple: the difference is so small (still 1-1.5k, as I think, it’s not scary), so you can immediately buy a 3770K and score on upgrading everything (I personally have an ASRock Extreme 4 mother , Corsair XMS3 DDR3-1600 4x4gb memory, OCZ Agility3 120gb SSD, Seagate Barracuda 3tb HDD, Radeon HD6930 GPU), so I plan to replace the video in a year and enjoy life further. for a relatively low price, you can assemble a top with a margin, except for video, so 3770K fits perfectly into the overall picture, so for supporters of buying once and for a long time - I definitely advise! PS, but do not regret a good processor cooler / tower and a spacious case, or dropsy, who needs silence))

Pros
  • low heat dissipation I don’t know how it is on Sandy, but with the Noctua NH-D14 tower in idle time 28-32, in games (crysis 2, dirt 3, syndicate, etc.) 45-49 degrees depending on the location of the tower (before that I wrote incorrect temperature - most programs, including the motherboard, take it from the near-processor sensor from the motherboard, but you need to look at the temperature specifically for the cores, which I did not know until recently). I want to buy another vent for the tower (to be the 3rd one), then in general it will be no higher than 30 under load. Many people think that the integrated graphics core is useless, but I would not say so. it is very useful for debugging, and more than enough for a temporary replacement of a discrete card.
Cons
  • Well, still the price, although at the start of sales it is, of course, a little expensive, so with everything and always.
