Greater than one weekI don’t know what kind of chip arrives, but definitely is not what I bought, I requested a refund but be careful, it’s happening often with more costumers, if you read a lot of recent reviews, you can see, it’s a lottery.

> 3 dayIf you can get this processor for what I got it for(under $350) then this CPU will make you smile but I couldn’t see paying anymore than that. With the new AMD CPU’s available right now, Intel should consider price cuts. I don’t see how they can compete with AMD charging either $250 for the i5 or $400 for the i7 variants of their k sku CPU’s. I only bought this because I am currently on the Z390 platform and it was the cheapest upgrade option otherwise I would have gone AMD. I have noticed a lot of improvements over my 8600k that I previously owned. I

Greater than one weekIve been running this for the past two weeks and Im happy I waited for the 9700K. So for its a beast! I paired it with a cryorig AIO and so far temps at idle are 20c and gaming is 60c (in quiet mode...meaning while gaming, I can hear my hard drive head moving over trying to keep this thing cool). Plenty of room for overclocking.

Greater than one weekThis is not what I bought. I bought a processor, not whatever this is. For one, the chip didnt even come in an Intel box, and then the chip inside the box I DID get wasnt even a square processor. I have no idea what it actually is because there are no markings on it to tell me what it is.

> 3 dayWhat can I say? Its a 9th Gen i7. I was a little hesitant on buying an i7 without Hyper Threading, but more physical cores are easily superior. I have this paired with a Z370XP SLI, and I was worried about the VRM Temps and the throttling that people report, but I havent encountered any throttling. The VRMs under load are at most at 60C* at 4.9Ghz on ALL cores. I actually think it shares the same VRM as the Gigabyte Aorus Ultra z370. The board I paired it with is cheaper than the Aorus Ultra with the same VRM. If gaming and rendering is your thing, this is IT!
