Review on Intel I7 6700 FC LGA14C Processor BX80662I76700 by Wiktor ygado ᠌

The processor as a processor is good, as a processor, but in terms of reliability, this is an absolute failure. Crystal processors would have been more reliable. If you do not have dropsy (and then I would have thought 5 more times), do not take it in any case. Wait for the next generation of Intel, in which they will eliminate this feil. Its pros: The highest performance, significantly outperforms the competition from previous generations in games with worthy graphics cards. Starting with 980ti and more powerful, the gain compared to DevilCanyon can be up to 10-25 fps depending on the game. In some (not all) applications, it is also noticeably 5% -20% superior to its predecessors. But if you do not have such powerful video cards, it makes sense to strive for zero. Significantly less heat dissipation. With its cons: They are fatal. All skylakes of all series (i3, i5, i7) have textolite bending. These processors are not recommended to be transported in an assembly with tower coolers, and they require serious cooling. It can break if the case is unsuccessfully moved or shaken. It also simply breaks down during installation, it is worth at least a little bit to tighten the screw, while no one will tell you the necessary efforts. Almost officially not compatible with Scythe coolers, due to fatal damage to them. In principle, screws are changed in their office for free in order to avoid (more precisely, reduce the likelihood) of this, but in 2022 where they are going to do it. All coolers with minimally uneven surfaces are also considered to disappear (goodbye termalright), and in general, with the correct and maximally correct installation, the textoil has every chance to bend under the weight of the cooler heatsink over time anyway. And in any warranty service you will not prove later that you are not a deer. And if you prove it, then only to Intel and months later.
