Review on 💪 Enhanced Performance Intel Core i3-9100F Desktop Processor | 4 Cores up to 4.2 GHz | LGA1151 300 Series | 65W – No Processor Graphics by Nikith Brewster

Good with the Intel line if you want to spend a lot of money on a processor, np. They have you covered well. If you want to save money and get a powerful processor, then here's the deal. I replaced my old 3rd gen Intel I7-3770 with this one, which performed slightly better. I have an 8th/9th generation motherboard. Generation. I now think I'll have this for a year or two and then upgrade to 9th Gen Intel I5/I7/I9 as needed. But at the moment my I3-9100F has a lot of power. The CPU has no graphics, so you need a graphics card. On the other hand, most PC manufacturers always include a graphics card, so this wouldn't be a deal breaker. So, I'd buy this one if you're an "Intel guy," but I'm sure once you get the hang of it, Ryzen processors will likely offer more. But I'm more of the plug-n-go type. This also came with a fan which was nice. It's also a "turbo" CPU, which saves power when you're just doing low-priority tasks. Update: This processor still works. I paired it with a GTX 1650 Super Gaming X 4GB DDR6 graphics card. This is very good considering the cost compared to the more expensive processors on the market. I also have 16GB of RAM. With this arrangement, I can easily run a basic Hadoop setup on VirtualBox (from the Hortonworks (CDP) sandbox). You'll need at least about 12GB of RAM and about 50GB+ of hard drive space. But it can push those newer games, but will be a bit harder on the most demanding games. For those who love supergamers, you'll need a 9th gen I5 or higher. But I'm an IT specialist, I teach Hadoop, Python and Machine Learning courses. That's more than enough for that.
