Review on Ultimate Performance: Intel Core i7-2600 Quad-Core Processor with 8MB Cache and 3.4GHz Speed by Ninh Quang Truong ᠌

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Good value for money, I recommend.

What I want to say about this stone. The price! It is illogical to take i7, because there is i5 2500k. When overclocking i7, its only advantage over i5 - hyper threading has to be turned off. And the extra 300 MHz is already better than this system. Both processors are effortlessly chasing up to 4.8 GHz. What do we get? The i5 2500k is absolutely equal to the i7 2600k, only when overclocked. If you need maximum power without overclocking, this is your option. Well, if you overclock the processor, then i5 is a much more reasonable option!

Pros
  • 1) Hyper threading 2) Turbo-boost.
Cons
  • Price

automatic overclocking to 4.4 from the very first day with excellent stability and temperatures rarely reaching 70 in the air

And yet, current processors do not allow you to quickly encode video in x264 1080 . Compared to my previous e7300, the difference is not that high. Now I'm switching to Ryzen
