Core i7-3770K Quad-Core Processor 3.5 GHz 8 MB Cache LGA 1155

Processor arrived in aftermarket non OEM box. It is not new as implied by the "buy others places" section. That being said, the processor was in good condition, it had double dimples on the connection balls, indicating it been seated at least twice. No obvious damage. It has been running now for about 24 hours on all four cores, eight threads. Never getting past 55C with an aftermarket cooler. And it is slightly overclocked to match some 1600Mhz memory I am running.

Excelent processor!!!

Perfect

Beast of an older processor

I had waited almost 2 years to get this CPU! And, the time came when I finally broke down, and bought it. Searched, and searched, and found a buyer that was decent in price, and wasn't used--not that if it's used it's bad, but I really wanted a new one, and this was a very special build for my DragonSlayer II! The seller sold it quickly, and packaged it up really well. Thanks!

Pleased with my purchase. Shipping was done very rapidly, packing was excellent and product is great.

The extra cache and HyperThreading made multitasking smoother and even improved frame rates a bit. Will prevent me from having to do a full upgrade for another year (or more).

This is the 4th time I've tried to leave this review... No post with more than 1 stick of ram. System build- I7 3770k (previously i5 2500) Gigabyte z77 ud5h mobo Gigabyte hd 7970 My brother wanted a gaming pc, I had a shelf of parts from customers computers they donated. Either cause the system was old or the motherboard/gpu needed logic board repair that i don't have enough experience in to offer as a repair service. So I used a known good motherboard from an old computer and a cpu out of a Dell system with a compatible cpu and built the system around my old gpu that I had managed to revive. He wanted to upgrade it and either stream or record his games. I never had issues with the gpu he has so I figured the cpu/ram could use an upgrade as the one I gave him couldn't overclock. My system has a xeon x5675 so I knew that the cpu difference would give my system an unfair advantage. That and the larger cpu cache size. So I looked around found a cheap i7 3770k on Amazon and got him some more ram as well as a scythe Mugan 5 cpu cooler so we could do some minor overclocking. However after installing the new cpu and cooler. The system would not post. Checked firmware. No further bios update available. Reset bios to factory settings, maybe there was something I missed or didn't pay attention to. Still didn't help. Swapped cpu cooler back to stock intell. Nothing Took out all ram leaving one after reinstalling the scythe cooler. System boots up and posts. Clears windows no problem. It continued to post regardless of which slot I used for the single stick of ram. And regardless of which stick of ram I used. Now im thinking maybe its something stupid like a screw stuck behind the mobo in the case. So I continued all further testing out of the case. No change. System will not boot with more than one stick of ram regardless of which slot that one stick is in. I've been doing this a while so I went back to the old i5 to verify that the mobo was still good. And the system goes back to normal with the i5 installed. No ram issues even with max memory supported installed in dual channel on 4 slots. I figure I overlooked something with motherboard compatibility so I ordered a different motherboard I have experience with the i7 3770k working on as it was a friends computer. Lmao come tho think of it its an identical build with the same gpu. After swapping out the motherboard the system still persisted to have the issue again, only with the i7 and not the i5. I look at the i7 pin pads. And notice the 5 that are responsible for the memory controller circuit seem worn through like someone messed with the screw on the motherboard and over tightened the lga socket. But we have never messed with either and neither mobo has a stiff lever beyond what is normal for this socket. I checked the i5 and the pad damage is not there. I have tried 3 times since this purchase to get a refund or a replacement to no avail.

Perfetto, tutto come descrizione. CPU perfettamente funzionante.

Étant fanatique de matériel informatique, je suis passé de l'excellent 2500K à ce 3770K (l'i7 de référence dans la gamme Ivy Bridge) et je ne suis pas déçu. Monté avec une Asus P8Z77-V PRO, un Noctua NH-U12P SE2, 16 Go Gskill et un M4 128 Go, il donne des performances exceptionnelles. Il n'y a absolument rien qui lui résiste, c'est un plaisir d'utiliser l’ordinateur au quotidien. Au niveau overclocking il s'avère être bon élève, j'ai monté le mien à 4.5 GHz stable mais il a tendance à chauffer un tout petit plus que mon ancien 2500K à la même fréquence. Le ventirad d'origine est vraiment léger, il vaut mieux en acheter un plus performant. Les jeux vidéos ne tirent pas parti de la présence de plus de 4 cœurs, donc si c'est uniquement pour jouer un 3570K donnera les mêmes performances pour 100€ de moins. Quand à la commande sur Amazon c'est impeccable comme d'habitude, livraison gratuite et très rapide. Colis très bien emballé. Je recommande vivement ce processeur.

Für den Alter ist es ein sehr starker Prozessor er war einer meiner lieblingsprozessor und erfüllt seinen Job

Es cierto que este es un procesador bastante caro, Pero sin duda alguna vale la pena invertir algo mas cuando de calidad se trata. Sus 4 nucleos a 3.5Gh hacen que tanto las aplicaciones como los juegos mas exigentes tengan unos tiempos de carga casi inexistentes. A la hora de editar tanto video como foto,solo es superado por la nueva generacion. la tecnologia de intel turbo hace que el procesador pase a una frecuencia 3.9Gh cuando se ve sobrecargado,reduciendose drasticamente cundo el ordenador esta en mdo "idle" con lo cual no solo obtenemos un rendimiento bestial si no que tambien economizamos gracias a su sistema de ahorro inteligente. tambien cabe destacar que su consumo puede regularse desde 35w hasta los 77w lo cual a la larga se traduce en un ahorro significativo frente a los procesadores de AMD si es cierto que estos ultimos son bastante mas baratos, su consumo en procesadores de gamas inferiores a esta ya se dispara hasta los 125w yo personalmente estoy muy contento con el. La unica pega que le encuentro esta en la temperatura,es cierto que llega a subir bastante,llegando a los 50-70º lo cual es normal si tenemos en cuenta la potencia que tiene. y es cierto que sabiendo esto INTEL deberia incluir mejores disipadores. Pero con un buen sistema de refrigeracion y una buena pasta termica no da mayor problema.

Pro's: Fast - HD Video, massive audio productions, gaming - not a problem. You could probably even do them all at the same time with sufficient screens (and skill!!) Extra power on tap - If you have temperature headroom, your CPU will boost itself to 3.9Ghz. The stock cooler is adequate for that sort of thing, but I replaced it with a H60 just to be safer long term. Efficient - Coupled with my Asus Z77 WS board with its advanced power tech, this CPU has got to be the most economical I have had the pleasure of owning. I am running my full system (3770k, 2 HDD, 1 SSD, 16GB DDR3 , GTX660ti) with safe headroom from a good quality 550w PSU. Con's: Cost - Fair enough its substantially cheaper here on amazon that other component retailers, but circa £240 is still a lot when you consider for most applications this chip gives you nothing over a 3570k. Also a few issues with Avid Pro Tools 10 and the turbo boost/HT tech. Pro Tools is much happier with static clock speeds from what I can tell. Some virtual instruments have hiccups with hyper threading, most noticeably NI Kontakt 5 - which is only optimised for 1,2,3 or 4 cores. When it can see 8 it just isnt happy!
