Is a very good concept for those of us who frequently eat at our desks and (ahem) need to clean a crumb-covered keyboard from time to time. With that said, the keys are very, very high, which - for me at least -- is a deal-breaker. I just find I constantly miss-hit keys, and the deep traverl (which granted, doesn't take a lot of pressure) gets tiring after a while. This is a shame, but the keys have exactly the kind of hollow feel my carpal tunnel hands need. Probably because of all the plastic, it also looks and feels inexpensive. It's almost a great keyboard-- just not quite there.
Extremely fast CPU especially for being a couple years old! It can easily sustain 4.4GHz with just a cheap Cooler Master 212 Evo. The integrated graphics would be plenty for light gaming.
Built two systems with this CPU, W7 and W10. Both system s running very well on SSD system drives, 32GB RAM and Gigabyte MB.One CPU died, thanks to an electrician working on the furnace. INTEL replaced it under warranty, just have to follow their directions on the return.I purchased a replacement before I dealt with the warranty so there will be a third system in the future with this CPU.
Simply one of the best CPUs on the market, both 6700k and this are both extremely close in comparison. Easily could buy this over the 6700k and you would notice no difference.
This haswell (Devils Canyon) chip is a little overboard for just everyday use however it's a monster of a processor. Handles games with ease, multitasking monster. Good features. I'm not a overclocker but the frequency is a highly respectable 4.0 and 4.4 with turbo. No need for OC if your just a casual gamer like myself. Its a bit pricey for being a couple years old now but still well worth it in my opinion.
