IntelCore i7-11700K

I always use the i7-11700K for my builds as never really had any probs at all so why change stick to what works.The prices would be good to stay at the £280 mark instead of going up by £50 then down again in just 3 days what’s the point of that.

This CPU is fast and runs cool. I’m glad I chose this over the more expensive I9 11th gen. i find it barely breaks a sweat when running the latest games and runs mid 40 degrees Celsius with the noctua d-15 air cooler. I did an auto overclock on the ASUS motherboard and increased its speed by 41% so I know there is plenty of headroom for the future. I didn’t like the presentation as my box had the original Intel label with serial number covered by an Amazon label and not being able to see the batch and serial number was annoying. I managed to peel it off eventually and read my serial number. The seller explained that this was an Amazon label but I think Amazon should choose a different placement. Great chip overall.

While AMD I's dominating at the moment, Intel is still good. Either cpu is going to do you just fine, this 11700k was a bit cheaper. And it's plenty fast enough, easy to install.

I bought this as a amazon repackaged cpu and works perfect no problems at all love it got a good discount on it too.

This Processor is absolutely INSANE!

Arrived quicker than expected, looks brand new and no damage pins/scratches

Before buying, I did a lot of research on what would be the best and quietest CPU cooler, as it generates almost two the amount of heat. I have only been using it for two months, but the improvement over a 10th Gen i3 is significant. It is reliable so far.One star has been marked down because the chip is so overpriced. To be fair this is not the fault of Amazon, as all suppliers seem to be overpricing these days when we are on the 14th Gen.

Beats all i9
