Effortlessly runs all modern games In half a year, expect 60-70 degrees on the desktop, and after two years of active use, expect 80 degrees in a pixel game.  LimonPardon : use Intel i7-6700 OEM more than year |
UNCAPABLE PROCESSOR for overprice title 14nm gum under the lid (temperature up to 90), expensive, only 4 cores, THERE'S NO POINT IN I7 SKYLAKE FOR 20K WHEN THERE'S RYZEN |
I don't even know what to nitpick about here. Unless with the release of the 10th generation, these have become unnecessary. Perhaps only for assembling a used build. Other than that, I'm very satisfied with the processor. It’s what I expected, even more. I don't know what they're talking about with those 90 degrees after a year. There's nothing like that, the processor works 10-12 hours a day in programs, 3-4 of those hours in games. And it's been like this for 4 years. There’s been nothing close to 90 degrees. Even in a stress test, it showed 60 degrees. Works flawlessly. Low temperatures. No  Alexander Andrusik: use Intel i7-6700 BOX more than year |
