Review on Intel Core I5 3570K Quad Core Processor Computer Components by Janis Libeks ᠌

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Everything about the product satisfied me, the price is perfect.

It functions in conjunction with the Radeon 7850 video card, which has sufficient processing power for practically all head-mounted games. However, installing anything other than the HD 7950/R9 280X/GTX 770/680 makes no sense because the processor is no longer sufficient, even with overclocking. Before that, there was an AMD Athlon I x2 250. In light programs, browsing, and system performance, the difference is not significant, but it is apparent in games. Direct rivals of the i5-3470 include AMD 8320/8350, which performs nearly equally well in gaming. However, AMD will be preferred for rendering and other tasks where the number of cores is crucial.

Pros
  • Given that it lacks the "K" suffix, it functions well on a standard motherboard and has good temperature and performance.
Cons
  • The packaged cooler is still not very effective; while the cores' idle temperature is 40 degrees, it can reach 70 degrees when playing games that demand a lot of processing power. In games, it doesn't go over 60 on the lid. However, if you add adequate cooling, it will be frigid. However, because of the poor ventilation in my situation, it probably becomes warm but not significantly.
