Intel Core i5-10400 Desktop Processor 6 Cores up to 4.3 GHz LGA1200 (Intel 400 Series Chipset) 65W, Model Number: BX8070110400

Been gaming with it for 7 months now paired it with a RTX 4060 has been great for 1440p gaming

At one point in time this was one of the best budget processors you could get along with the 10400f, which was back in 2020 to 2021. We've moved past that era but this CPU can still hold its own.The i5-10400 non-F at least comes with integrated Graphics, which can be useful at times.I bought this to test a couple questionable lga1200 motherboards. The reason I picked the i5-10400 over the i3-10100 and i5-10-400f is because the price wasn't all that much higher than the i3 and this one comes with the iGPU. With the iGPU, I don't have to hook up a Graphics card to test a motherboard.Would I buy one of these for a budget build today? No, I wouldn't. The only way I'd think of it is if I already have an lga1200 motherboard. Otherwise I would go with a newer 6-core processor which can usually be found for a similar price. I'd avoid 10th and 11th Gen processors, unless I had no other choice.The stock cooler? No, I would not use that either. Intel should have included the stock cooler that has a copper base, and it would help if they used a beefier cooler to that is screw mounted. In the past, my side hustle was buying broken gaming PCs, and a number of those broken PCs had an Intel stock cooler that had become dislodged.

Choosing a processor is all about economics. With so many processor choices on the market, the trick is finding a balance between price and power. For me, the 10400 was the perfect balance. A lot of reviews are recommending the AMD Ryzen processors, but it seems most of these reviews are geared to gamers. Unfortunately, the latest Ryzen processors do not include graphics processing on board, and the reviews ignore this point because gamers always include a graphics card in their builds. Well I am not a gamer, and don't need to waste money on a graphics board. So the fact that the 10400 comes with onboard graphics was a selling point for me. I play WoW, and have no problems playing with the integrated UHD chipset. With 6 cores and hyperthreading, this processor is like buying a previous-generation i7. I can run multiple virtual machines on my desktop with no slowdown whatsoever. Nor do I want to overclock, since reliability is more important to me than squeezing a few more clock cycles. I think this hits the perfect balance between power and affordability.

Llevo desde el 2021 con el y todo ha salido perfecto, nunca me hizo cuello de botella y con los juegos que lo probe funciona exelente, tambien con programas de edicion aun que la verdad hago muy poco multimedia y no exarejado, aun asi siempre ha funcionado perfecto. para 2025 hay mejores opciones por el mismo precio

To start, I'm not going to hit you with all the spec data. Plenty of sites for that kind of measurement. I'm going to tell you, being a 20 year IT professional, this is a solid processor. I replaced a Xeon E3-1225 with this processor. Even coming from a Xeon for productivity and virtualization, this is a solid upgrade. My system is stable, performs faster, programs execute faster, and my VMs within my labs operate far more efficiently and provide the fast operation requires for a IT professional. If you are considering the 10600, then this is worth the consideration if you're in the productivity space. If you're in the overclock gaming space, then, no, this processor isn't the best option out there. However, it is reasonably priced, has some good mainboard support options, and I even ported over my RAM from my 4+ year old Xeon system without any problems.So, this is not the MOST economic processor. However, its relatively economic, stable, has good hardware support options, and provides a solid improvement over prior generation Intel products. Point is, if you're looking to buy a solid CPU, this is a good bet.If you're looking to overclock the thing into a lava pit in your tower, just go elsewhere and don't give negative reviews when YOU are the one out of spec.

Muy bueno aunque tenía un poco más de expectativa en cuando a su eficiencia

So my good friend and roommate is an avid computer geek. But he's also fashionable so we call him geek Chic. Anyway he bought me a 55 in TV this year and I felt so best I felt that I should at least give him a nice gift so I bought this Intel core and I felt very pleased. He bragged about how easy it was to install and I was made things run so much better I understand that with his type of job he needs to be operating one of the best computers with the fastest speed. You can't sell it if you can't build it because you can't build it it's because you don't have the material. I'm so impressed with Amazon sending us this wonderful and tell core that he bragged about being easy to install, but he also just said anything better. Elizabeth we try to do for Christmas or any holiday try to make things better for our friends? So I would highly recommend this I'm encourage everyone to look into it that needs a better Intel core

Arrived in perfect condition and working as promised
