Review on πŸ’ͺ Intel Core i5-3570 Quad-Core Processor: Fast 3.4 GHz Speed and 6 MB Cache for High-Performance Computing - LGA 1155 Compatible (BX80637I53570) by Micha Kumicki ᠌

Revainrating 5 out of 5

The quality exceeds all expectations, I recommend to buy.

It works in conjunction with the Radeon 7850 video card, for which there is enough processor in almost all games with a head. But it makes no sense to install something more than HD 7950 / R9 280X, GTX 770/680, since the processor is no longer enough even in overclocking. Before that, by the way, there was an AMD Athlon I x2 250, in light applications, browsing, and the operation of the system, the difference is not colossal, but in games it is very noticeable. Direct competitors of the i5-3470 are AMD 8320/8350, they have almost parity in gaming performance, but for rendering and other applications where the number of cores is important, AMD will be preferable.

Pros
  • Temperature, good performance, low power consumption, runs well on a normal motherboard, given that it does not have the "K" suffix.
Cons
  • The boxed cooler is still not very efficient, the idle temperature on the cores is 40 degrees, in processor-dependent games it can jump up to 70. It does not exceed 60 on the lid in games. But if you put good cooling, it will be cold. But my case is poorly ventilated, there it is It probably gets hot, but not much.
