Great CPU at a decent price
Easily upgraded my Core i5 processor with this one. Now I have 8 threads instead of 4, though still have 4 cores. Performs well and reliably. It's worth to upgrade your CPU from i3. Upgrade to i7 from i5 when your specific software is capable of using the larger amount of threads (not cores, but threads).Read full review

Works great.
Replaced an i-7-2600. Intel DZ68BC MoBo. Upgraded BIOS from 0021 to 0039 (Min 0035 req). i7-3770 Runs about the same as i7-2600 except video work. I read that the 3770 had graphics incorporated and it indeed converts x264 to x265 about twice as fast using Shotcut (Ubuntu 18.04).Read full review

Good product
When I got the processor, installation was a snap and it’s performing to specification. The hyper threading makes it ideal if you want a high end gaming PC and also have the ability to run other tasks simultaneously. Read full review

Great purchase!
Excellent purchase, and nice speedy upgrade for my old PC. There was no issue with the replacement CPU, though I did make the Newby mistake of not updating my BIOS prior to installation (remember to do this!). Thanks again for offering a wonderful product, and for creating reuse opportunities and keeping things out of the landfill.Read full review

Classic performer.
Oldie but a goodie. I wasn't quite ready to plunk the cash down on a full upgrade from my i5-3570k to Ryzen as it will require replacing the MB and RAM too. But I was really running into bottlenecks with only 2c4t. Some gaming, but primarily issues around workstation duties with Lightroom and Photoshop. This was a good interim solution, doubling the cores for a modest price and letting me keep everything else in the system as it is.
Unless you are in a similar boat, there's little reason to choose a CPU this old; there are more modern options that will have more longevity and will give you a lot more for your buck. Often for not much more (if any).Read full review

Chip works great and is now the heart of my first ITX build. A happy teen is minecraft-ing away on it. There was some thermal paste in the baggy that got on to the pads but it cleaned right off with a little alcohol. Read full review

CPU Upgrade for older computer.
I used this CPU to upgrade a older Dell Optiplex for my nephew.
Though this was a used CPU I installed it and stress tested it
with Prime95 and other software. It has been rock solid through testing.
The seller was very good with shipping fast and packaging.
So far it is great.
