The perfect purchase for me, exactly what I was looking for!

Briefly: I am an architect-designer, I have been working with 3d graphics for many years, I was looking for an acceptable option for prof. activities. re-read a bunch of materials and discussed a lot with colleagues in the shop, he himself with iron on "you" so he assembled the car himself. i7 + 16 GB of high-speed RAM corsair do their job. Very satisfied. He spits out beautiful renders of good resolution in half an hour.
8 virtual cores do their job, and this is without overclocking. In terms of power and performance, it is slightly weaker by 15-17% than the top i7 on socket 2022 and is MUCH cheaper!
Took this summer when the dollar was at its minimum. for 22k
Such a machine will last for 5 years with a margin, I recommend it to everyone!

Pros

+ Well, first of all, Intel, it is also Intel in Africa!) + Excellent combination of price and quality. + Performance and manufacturer. + Maximum power for a given socket. + Ability to overclock. + Build quality + ease of installation.

Cons

- Still warm at max load, but this is when rendering the most loaded scenes, but in general this is compensated by a good cooler. In idle 24°C, in games no more than 35°C, when rendering 55°C.
