Review: high performance processor especially when coupled with a good video card - I admit I have a need for speed when it comes to computer processors. Probably because I started out with an Intel Celeron processor. It did not take me long to realize that I needed something with a little more processing power without a huge price tag, and a large demand for power. Hence I did some research and found that the Intel Core i5-6600 Skylake Quad-Core 3.3 GHz Desktop Processor was a very affordable, low wattage, stable, high performance processor especially when coupled with a good video card. My wife has loved the way the computer moves from screen to screen, and the way it moves from application to application. Really happy with the i5, the video card, and the computer in general. All of the parts were purchased from desertcart and assembled by a top notch technician.
Review: Good so far - First unit I got was defective. The computer ran normally but whenever I tried to play a game it would crash in under 5 minutes. There were some strange blurring problems and streaks around the edge of the monitor before it happened half of the time. Took forever to figure out it was the CPU but as soon as I swapped it out for a new one everything ran perfectly.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Graet Chip, but cheap CPU Cooler fan may be a weak link.
*by A***E on April 18, 2016*

Great Chip, runs super cool, and provides all the power needed for most home systems. Yet part of the value of the non k chip is getting a free CPU cooler. Of course, if the cheap fan included turns out to be noisy, and, in my experience, all too often does, then it’s not quite such a good deal. After only a few days, the fan in my system started to make noise, and no amount of playing with fan speed setting made any difference. I was about to replace the cooler with my favorite Noctua, but happened to have a Low-Noise Adaptor that comes free with the Noctua NF-F12 PWM Cooling Fan I bought for a different system, and decided to try that first. It worked, and it’s now dead silent again, and otherwise working perfectly.
