Intel Core i7-10700 Desktop Processor 8 Cores up to 4.8 GHz LGA 1200 (Intel 400 Series Chipset) 65W, BX8070110700

Working great

I think this processor is the unsung hero of the entire 10th gen product launch. It has a slightly lower TDP, so it is not a furnace in the case like some of the other 10th gen processors (Im using a dual tower air cooler without issues). With a little bios adjustment and a Z series motherboard, you can adjust the BCLK slightly higher and extend the turbo boosting to get 97% of a regular unlocked K CPU at a significantly lower price. I use it with DDR4 3600 memory, and Id be hard pressed to notice a difference between my old 9900k and this CPU in regular usage.

Initial review. Just received the product. Shipping box was in great shape. Intel box looked okay, except for that the seal has already been opened (see images). The white informational tape was undisturbed, but the factory seal tape has clearly been opened and retaped - notice the letters missing. Notice too how the chip is off center of the lid.

My box was not opened like everyone else seems to have experienced.

I built my first pc with this! As of right now, there is a huge gpu shortage and it’s sooo hard to get one. This has an integrated gpu so I can still play games somewhat until I can find a gpu. I didn’t have any issues with this product and it wasn’t hard to assemble. Everything works great and it was a good price!

Bought this product from micro-center , an ABSOLUTE BEAST , if you wanna save money Id rather just get this cpu instead of the 10700K there is barely a Difference and holy cow huge upgrade 10TH Gen is just Next level i love it !!!

This cpu was bought for an all around use set-up. Cannot complain. Integrated graphics are doing everything I need until gpus become less scarce and more affordable. UPdate: Did purchase a workstation video card for now and this system is working beautifully. Doing everything I throw at it, so far. I do have a higher core/ thread count chip for more intensive projects, but not what this one was built for...

Just like the other review, this box has been opened and it kind of worries me. Off center chip and seal tampered.

PC is running fast now after the upgrade. Great product. Love it.

I dont care much about overclocking, and this seems a good spot on the price/performance curve for the Intel side.
