Intel Core i5-11600K Unlocked Desktop Processor, 6 Cores up to 4.9 GHz, LGA1200 (Intel 500 Series & Select 400 Series Chipset), 125W Review

It is difficult to write something special because everything is on the Internet, I can definitely say that it is better than my last processor, and that's it. Got pros: New generation, much better than my old processor (i7-6700k) both in terms of performance and heat. Cheaper than the old generation. Some cons: Motherboards are more expensive than the processor itself, it's more funny than bad)

Someone writes a hot stone, well, I don’t know, in a good cooled case and tower + arctic thermal paste, in rdr2 at ultras in 2k maximum 65s

Some pros: The increase compared to 10600k is noticeable, there is support for pci 4.0. Its cons: Hot enough. Overclocking is not useful, and dark rock pro4 does not really chase in the air

Has some pros The percentage is excellent for the money, the built-in video core will help to endure until the final price reduction for video cards. Quietly keeps 4.7-4.9 for all cores. I advise you to buy! Got cons: Heat dissipation, here I think everyone understands that processors with the K index are taken for overclocking, and you won’t get off with an ordinary tower, you are provided with 250 watts at full load.

Enough for the first time. It's too early to upgrade to 12 series, motherboards and memory are expensive. Mother ~35, ddr5 memory is also more expensive :(.

An excellent stone with high performance, but requires good cooling. I put a DeepCool GamerStorm Assassin III tower on it, I hope to cope. Works in conjunction with ASUS ROG STRIX Z590-F GAMING WIFI.

The processor was delivered without packaging. Stupidly wrapped in bubble wrap. No box, no warranty card . nothing . There is a feeling that I received a second-hand product. Very dissatisfied with the order.

Won't boot into my RAM with its usual stable XMP settings, although it's been working fine with my old CPU for over a year now and runs insanely hot. Will be switching back and forth to my i3 10100. I'll probably get a tried and tested 10th gen processor instead because they're cheap and reliable at the moment. Maybe in 6 months, when the phone makers fix their bios, the 11th gen will be viable.

I have a Gigabyte Z490M Gaming X motherboard with two M.2 slots but one is not working (marked as reduced functionality). It turns out that since the release of its 11th Gen processors, Gigabyte has put a lot of effort into providing additional features. When the new processors came out, I replaced my 10th gen i5 10500 processor with this one. Six things struck me first: 1. This processor requires more power (125W vs 65W for the i5 10500)2. Although it consumes twice as much power, it only…

So far so good. Bios is not buggy on z590 pro ax but I am using bios f5. still works and works well, constantly updated. So just one update tested a lot of my games and most games never go above 20-25% CPU usage. I can barely see 30. The coming of the kingdom of deliverance at 16-21. Not overclocked. All games are different but amazing processor so far. And it's not overclocked.

I hesitated between the i7 and this one. I felt that the speed boost for the i7 didn't justify the price increase. I now have a blazing fast system (with backup graphics) and pay a lot less than an i7.

I bought it together with the asus tuf z590 board, almost assembled and started without problems. Trouble free xmp, pci express 4.0 and high temperatures mid 60's. For those who work hard on information or don't want to deal with procurement issues with Ryzen, this is the best value in terms of gaming.

Used in ASUS TUF Gaming Z590-Plus WiFi motherboard. To my surprise, it also came with the latest BIOS update, so there's no need to flash it just yet. It's an i5-4690k type. I'm just amazed. This thing is insanely fast compared to what I'm used to. I knew that it can also get very hot, so I decided to install water cooling (AIO Cooler) for the first time. I was able to fit the NZXT Kraken X53 into my Corsair Carbide 200R case. Mounted it directly over my low profile ram sticks, using screws in…

Currently considered the best CPU for GAME. I chose the 11th gen i5-11600K because it supports everything on my motherboard. If you are purchasing a 10th or 11th Gen Intel chip, note that you MUST ensure your motherboard supports these chips. I recommend the Gigabyte Z590 as it was built just for these two processors. Air cooler and MUST be rated for 125W or more CPU or you will burn the CPU. If you like overclocking, keep this in mind. I picked the most recommended one under the title - be…

Good processor. I was looking for a Ryzen 5600x, but this one caught my eye, with a good discount. Came out at almost 6000r. cheaper, taking into account the difference in performance, I think that the price is just great. The only downside is heat dissipation. Under the Enermax ETS-F40-FS cooler, the temperature in stress tests reaches 92 degrees. So, don't dream about any 125W TDP. Set the cooling to at least 200W. Minus a star for a hot temper.

The reason for changing the processor was the need to increase the power of the PC for games. I had an i7 4790, a very old processor that was 100% loaded in some games. I assembled a computer for 11600k, went into the same game and was very surprised to see the processor load of 80%. Yes, it is more powerful than the old i7, but the performance gain is clearly not the one that the reviewers are talking about. In real conditions, the situation is worse.
