Review on Powerful Intel Core i7-3770K Quad-Core Processor with 8MB Cache and LGA 1155 Compatibility - BX80637I73770K by Xun Qu ᠌

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Good product for me, no problems at all.

I bought the whole computer 5 years ago for 25k, and here in 2022 one percent costs almost as much, to put it mildly, I was very surprised. For a long time I worked at the factory frequency of 3.4GHz, and then I thought, why not overclock? In short, by default, I was chasing up to 3.9GHz, raised it to 4.4GHz, but suddenly artifacts appeared (maybe they had another reason), I didn’t risk a stone and lowered it a little to 4.2GHz, it works just fine. There is a "Thermaltake Frio Silent 12" cooler (yes, I know that it is almost 2 times more powerful than it should be), and even with a resistor out of the box, i. E. the valve works almost half of the maximum (well, about how much the processor needs), and even this is enough to keep the overclocked percentage at idle at 35 degrees, and in office tasks a little more than 40. In games, the biggest thing I got was where -something 78 degrees, right at a very large and prolonged load for several hours.

Pros
  • - Quite good performance even at the beginning of 2022 - Excellent acceleration - Low heat dissipation
Cons
  • - I wanted to change the motherboard - there are very few options that give a good pair of percent + chipset, maybe even on the Intel website this percent is in the "outdated" tab, i. E. it's not worth waiting for new motherboards exactly for it.
