Review on Intel Core I5 3470 Quad Core Processor Computer Components by Micha Dziubiski ᠌

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Perfect product for any user!

It functions in tandem with the Radeon 7850 visual card, for which there is sufficient processing power in the vast majority of games that have a head. Since the processor is no longer sufficient even after being overclocked, there is no point in installing anything more powerful than an HD 7950 / R9 280X, GTX 770 / 680 graphics card. Before that, there was an AMD Athlon I x2 250. The difference is not enormous in light programs, browsing, and the functioning of the machine; nonetheless, it is very evident when it comes to gaming. AMD's 8320 and 8350 processors, which are direct competitors of Intel's i5-3470, perform roughly identically when it comes to gaming, but AMD will be a better choice for rendering and other applications where the number of cores is vital.

Pros
  • Considering that it does not have the "K" suffix, the temperature, the good performance, and the low power consumption are all favorable, and it works well on a regular motherboard.
Cons
  • Even if the temperature on the cores is just 40 degrees when the boxed cooler is idle, it can reach up to 70 degrees when playing games that rely heavily on the processor. In games, it does not go higher than sixty on the lid. However, if you put in sufficient cooling, it will be chilly. But my enclosure has terrible ventilation, so there's that. It probably gets warm, but not to a significant degree.
