I was skeptical when I opened the box. There seems to be some sort of carbon scoring on the cpu I have never seen on one before, but, I bought this for a basic build I could take to work and not worry about cost. For $100 i got this cpu and a z77 its mobo here on ebay, paired it with an rx460, 16gbs of 1600mhz ram (OC'd to 2100) and an old coolermaster air cooler made back during the socket 775 era and damb, 4.7ghz at max 70c and we're off to the RTS and some open world races. Not a single game I play dips down to 30 fps. That is, I play They are Billions, Civilization 5 and 6, some Minecraft and i use a drawing pad for artwork. Things that I can pause at work when i actually need to you know, work. Very happy with the purchase.

What is happening here! I installed this processor (i5-3570) on ASUS motherboard (P8Z68-V LX) includes latest bios (4105), but processor runs at 1.60GHz speed. Why? What went wrong here? The stated Base Frequency is 3.40GHz. The stated Turbo Frequency is 3.80GHz. Does the motherboard fully supports this processor, it is stated on ASUS website that it do support this processor from bios version 3904. My computer is slow but very stable. That is the only good part------stable.

Got this to upgrade my old Dell XPS 8500 and I was not mistaken. This is a great CPU for most anything you may come up against. My gaming computer has a 4690K and this thing runs just below it for half the price of the next gen i5 CPU. Great upgrade that keeps an older Z77 series board relevant for anything out side of video editing or super high CPU needs.

Good processor, not really an upgrade from a 2500k, but slightly more efficient per clock and per watt. Haven't overclocked yet, so I can't comment on that. If you're using an older chipset that only supports the Ivy Bridge processors with a BIOS upgrade, make sure you do the upgrade before you install the 3570k. I wasted a lot of time trouble shooting compatibility, and had to put in an older processor to upgrade the BIOS on a GA-Z68X-UD3P. Learn from my mistakes! In my opinion this CPU is the best value right now. i7s are not worth the upgrade except in very unlikely situations where you would usually buy Enterprise hardware anyway. The 3000 series is a better value than the second generation of Ivy Bridge, which didn't offer any architectural improvements, but any of the K series i5s is a good choice. Just my opinion after using a lot of Intel CPUs on a machine built for gaming and running virtual machines.Read full review
I needed to upgrade the processing power on my sons PC. This is the fastest unlocked chip available in this particular product line. It let me take advantage of the A.I. overclocking feature of his motherboard.
