Review: Great performance & value! - Amazing value if you don't need Hyper-Threading. Great gaming CPU! I would recommend the i5-2500k at this point, but I've been very happy with the i5-760. Mine is at 3.7GHz and has been running 24/7 since October. My temps are 28C idle and 50C full load after hours of prime95. I've had the 760 stable at 4.2GHz, but that was overkill for my needs. Rips anything I throw at it. I wanted to see if I could slow this CPU down and I couldn't. I tried multiple browsers with 50+ tabs each, iTunes playing, file backups to a NAS and a Photoshop batch process all while playing COD Black Ops and this CPU didn't care. Even with prime95 running all cores at 100% I can still listen to music and surf the web without any lag. Pretty amazing. This CPU and the 1156 socket are old news, but I'm very happy with it. The new i5s are faster and almost the same price so they're a better buy. ASUS P7P55D-E Mobo Intel i5-760 @ 3.7GHz Prolimatech Megahalems Rev.

I have it on my Desktop plugged into an ASUS P7P55D-E LX Motherboard. I have been using it for 5 years and it seems to work very good. **Q: Is it worth buying it for gaming?** A: Yes this CPU is worth it for gaming. While the video card is the hardware that will effects your gaming experience the most, a lot of high end games require a decent CPU for buffering, smoothing, and rendering graphics.PC games don't take advantage of any CPU count over 4 cores. So a Intel i5 is perfect for gaming.i7 is a waste of money for gaming, and i3 you will be bottle necking graphics a bit. **Q: Includes fan and box?** A: Yes, includes fan and box. **Q: Does this cpu have intel integrated graphic?** A: This processor does not have integrated graphics, you will need a separate graphics card. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great performance & value! *by K***. on February 1, 2011* Amazing value if you don't need Hyper-Threading.
