A great CPU but from an era before AMD Ryzen which is shaking up the market with more cores and threads. For gaming 4 cores is good enough come a few more years and 6 cores will be standard place. The Hyper Threading of this I7 will certainly help with future proofing over the I5 CPUs.
- Fairly low power; - Great gaming CPU; - Lowest power use to speed
- 4 cores is getting a little old
