I upgraded my motherboard so I also had to upgrade the processor. This is what I needed and it works great when I'm creating in any 3D apps.

Cool temps and superb performance.

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on July 25, 2020

Style: Processor OnlyVerified Purchase

Don’t let the 125w TDP fool ya because this chip runs WAY cooler than previous gens. Tested temps using OCCT stress test for about 3 hours, alongside my Noctua NH-D15 cooler. The highest I’ve seen the temp spike up to was 71c. Note that OCCT is a heavy synthetic test that pushes the CPU to the limit. Regular gaming temps will never reach that high. I’ve had the chip for almost two months now and accumulated quite a bit of gaming hours during that time. The games I played included a mix of intensive AAA titles like CoD Warzone and AC: Odyssey to light eSport ones such as Rocket League and Rainbow Six Siege. Highest temps are always in the 50s to mid 60s range. That is a huge difference compared to my old i5 6600k that spiked to over 80c at times! My brother who bought a 9900k last year was also amazed by how much cooler 10th gen runs and even said that he wished he waited a bit longer before upgrading. Note that both the 9900k and 6600k have lower TDPs than the 10700k yet still run warmer. The reason as to why 10th gen runs cooler is because intel made modifications to the IHS of the cpu and upgraded their Thermal Interface Material. Other then the improvement in the temperature department, I’ve also noticed a big difference in gaming performance. Despite having a 2080 super, my PC used to struggle to reach and stay at a consistent 100+fps at 1080p. CPU intensive games like AC Odyssey often dropped to like 50fps. This is a clear indication that there was bottleneck on the CPU side. With this new 10700k, My PC now has no problems reaching and maintaining that sweet consistent 144+ FPS on light competitive eSport titles and 100+FPS on demanding CPU intensive AAA titles. Also, note that I am running the CPU at stock settings right out the box and have not messed with overclocking yet. Nonetheless, I am very satisfied with this CPU and I highly recommend it.

Invest in a good cooler.

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on June 10, 2020

Style: Processor OnlyVerified Purchase

While a good idea anyway, with many processors now utilizing stock overclocks, you can benefit a performance boost by choosing a better CPU cooler. I went the cheap route, actually, I thought it was middle of the road since the Thermaltake Contac Silent 12 is rated for 150w. I thought I could get away with a $30 cooler since I am not planning on overclocking. That cooler could not even keep up with stock CPU settings. In benchmarks the CPU hit 80-Celsius in seconds and gradually up to 90 where I had it set to throttle. In more practical testing, under basic workloads the temps are more reasonable but the Contac Silent 12 has to ramp up to %100 fan speed frequently to keep that way and it is not quiet at that speed. I know somebody is going to say that's because the default settings on the motherboard are overclocking the CPU beyond Intel's recommended settings. Well, that was one of the first things I checked and that's not the case here. Despite what somebody on YouTube said or didn't say, not all motherboards do that. It is a great processor and complements my workload nicely (no games here). The new cooler is a Reeven Justice, $45 right now. I has the same size 120mm fan however it has six heat pipes instead of four and the tower is about %50 thicker and fins stacked closer together. Temps, while still pretty hot, have come down 8-10 degrees on Cinebench R-20. It still gets up to 80-82 Celsius but instead of hitting 80 right away as it did before, it takes until the render is almost complete and seems to level off there. I feel better about the temps now that It's not riding on the ceiling, especially since all core full load is not a typical workload for me. The fan is much quieter during typical use. I would recommend that cooler for those who are looking for a good compatible cooler.

put in an MSI Z470 sli , just finished so don't know about the gaming yet, just know it runs super-fast and super cool, water cooled with a corsair 280mm radiator. Of course, it is freezing in this room and we all should know, it can never be cooler than the air around it.

Gaming Chip. 4790k to this.

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on June 7, 2020

Style: Processor OnlyVerified Purchase

Yeah I know, Ryzens are cheaper, and out perform the Intel chips in everything... except clocks. As a gamer, I want the highest single core speed possible, 16 threads instead of 32? Whatever, I don't need that many for my uses, lol.

I don't upgrade often, and until now I was still running my trusty 4790k, which still can hold it's own pretty well, but now with the 10700k, the 1080 isn't bottlenecked by my CPU any more, and it's VERY noticeable in certain games I normally saw slight issues.

Should you upgrade 9th gen, or even 8th gen to 10th gen? Honestly, probably not. But if you're say, a few of more generations behind now, it's a worthy upgrade. Yes it's an upgraded 9900k, but that's still really good for ~$400!

(pic included just because I find it hilarious how absurdly big the Noctua D15 cooler is)

1 MONTH UPDATE:

So yeah it's just shy of a month using it and it's been a beast. I haven't messed with clocks at all since the built in boosts do the job fine, especially paired with the D15 keeping it nice and cool. Haven't gone above 60c in full load yet.

8 MONTH UPDATE:

Still going strong! Was able to snag a 3080 from MicroCenter in September, so my build is now complete, and the 3080/10700k combo is beasting through anything I put in front of it.

Fast, temperatures are good, 35 at ideal and around 60 at load. those people who are saying it's hot actually they don't have this processor. Not much expensive in other countries, it's only expensive in India because of 42% tax. So if you love intel and want the same performance as core i9 9900K then this is for you, because core i9 10900K is out of stock now.

Its weird the i7 is considered mid tier for CPUs

Reviewed in the United Kingdom 🇬🇧 on December 29, 2020

Style: Processor OnlyVerified Purchase

I got this i7 because

a) it was in stock
b) I had the budget for it
c) I trust intel more than AMD Ryzen even though AMD Ryzen is considered now as the better hardware (judging by per-core performance). I have always thought Intel's drivers are better, I have also heard recent reports that Ryzen CPUs usage can randomly go up by 20% with just the epic games store running. I can imagine this will be fixed as it sounds more like some dodgy code than the hardware itself.

On every game I have played, I don't think the CPU usage has gone above 40%. So this CPU will definitely last a LONG time before I upgrade.

The 11th gen CPUs will be in mass production soon, so it may be worth waiting for that to come out. Or you could wait for the new ryzen CPUs to come back in stock

had this for about 2 weeks and is brilliant managed to get it up to 5.5ghz on a ASUS z490 the only downside to this chip is that its very very hot with a double rad aio at 5.1ghz i hit 90C Max and idle around 35C but upgraded to a full custom loop and now it has all the cooling it needs and it actually out preforms the i9 at 5.4ghz so keep that in mind for you overclockers. all in all brilliant value and performance and the perfect match for my FE 3080. the only problem was delivery it came very dinged up and left in the damp.

Processore Intel® CoreTM i7-10700K

Reviewed in Italy 🇮🇹 on June 27, 2020

Style: Processor OnlyVerified Purchase

Ho scelto ancora una volta un processore Intel: offre prestazioni simili ad un 3800XT.
Considerato l'affinamento del processo produttivo risulta abbastanza facile da tenere sotto controllo anche dal punto di vista termico.
Il costo rimane indubbiamente alto per un 8 core ma tutto sommato il numero di istruzioni per ciclo con frequenza di 5,1 Ghz risulta quasi paritario, e, data la monoliticità garantisce l'assenza di latenze o di errori di memoria non previsti causati dalle stesse.
Finalmente un valido upgrade dalla prima generazione di skylake.

this CPU is perfect haven't had any issue yet other than it does run a little hot but i have a huge CPU cooler so its only reaching high 60's on not hugely intensive games
