Review on Intel I7 6700 FC LGA14C Processor BX80662I76700 by Mateusz Trzmiel ᠌

Revainrating 5 out of 5

The best thing I've ever used, a great item for everyone!

After using an older Intel Q8400@3.4Ghz processor, I upgraded to a Skylake 6700K. I was anticipating that there would be a noticeable difference, but in actuality, there is not just a noticeable difference—it is enormous. Now the personal computer may be accurately described as multitasking, being quick, and having a system that is genuinely responsive. It is now a delight to work with professional apps such as Adobe Premier Pro and Vegas Pro. The CPU is also unaffected by games, so there are no performance concerns with either. The Witcher 3, Assassin's Creed: Unity, and other "heavy" projects are easily digested by the 6700K, leaving a big power reserve for other background processes. This is achieved without overclocking the processor. Under the heat spreader cover, I found that there was a thermal interface, which is a drawback. Although solder could have been a better choice, the temperatures were to everyone's satisfaction. When paired with the air Noctua NH-C14 and coupled to an Ultra Low Noise adapter, the temperature of the processor rises to 28-30 degrees when it is idle, and it reaches 57-61 degrees when it is operating at full load. As a consequence of this, I am quite pleased with the acquisition, the performance is adequate and abundant, and given that the "K" index is included in the model name, it will continue to function reliably for a very extended period of time.

Pros
  • Performance, heat dissipation, and ease of overclocking are all important considerations.
Cons
  • The thermal interface that is located beneath the heat distributor's lid.
