Even though it's a tad slower than the 4670, I think it's worth going with this one instead if your budget really requires you to save that $20. Hasn't had issues running any games and it scores a CPUmark of around 7500 on Passmark, with single threaded hitting around 2200. I was initially going to get an FX-6300 with a good motherboard and overclock, but found out that even then it still wouldn't match a lower end Intel CPU in terms of single core performance. Which with that FX processor and a good board it would've cost as much as a micro ATX board and this CPU, so it wasn't worth it. I play Arma 3 and single core performance is key as the engine only utilizes two cores then scales. The single core performance of this CPU matches a stock clocked i7-3970X, which I find impressive. The bottom line, it's a superb mid-range CPU even with the lack of overclocking, and the stock cooler indeed works fine. I was a bit worried about the heat problems with Haswell, but the stock cooler is not having any issues. Pair this with a decent micro ATX board and you'll have yourself a powerful machine for a low price. Also, a tip for anyone having issues installing the CPU cooler, you turn the knobs counter-clockwise to pull the pins out of the spreaders, then you fit the cooler over the holes and then push down on them on opposite sides so that the pins fit in the spreaders securely. After this is done the cooler shouldn't move at all. Review: This is the way it always goes - I go to upgrade memory (had 16Gb, upgrading to 32Gb), and I get the bug. So, I've been investigating other CPUs for my LGA-1150 socketed motherboard. I thought about the i7-series, and had to come over to this CPU, which is the one I bought way back in 2014 and is presently in my system. It's been a workhorse. I do semi-pro photography processing on my machine, and it's held up well and I've had no complaints about performance .. now I am looking at processing 4k video and thought maybe it's time to upgrade my CPU. I wanted to stick to the motherboard I have, so I'd need to buy an i7 that fits an LGA-1150 socket, and there are some out there .. I think the money would be better spent on an upgraded GPU, though, since most video processing software makes use of a GPU. I wanted to just comment and say that my CPU, this trusty old i5, has been busy for six years now, faithfully enabling me to process whatever it is I need it for .. great processor. ## Features - Intel Core I5 I5-4570 Quad-core (4 Core) 3.20 Ghz Processor - Socket H3 Lga-1150retail Pack - 1 Mb - 6 Mb Cache - 5 Gt/s Dmi - Yes - 3.60 Ghz Overclocking Speed - 22 Nm - 3 Number Of Monitors Supported - Intel Hd 4600 Graphics - 84 W ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B00CO8TA4I | | Best Sellers Rank | #3,426 in Computer CPU Processors | | Brand | Intel | | CPU Manufacturer | Intel | | CPU Model | Core i5 | | CPU Socket | LGA 1150 | | CPU Speed | 3.6 GHz | | Cache Memory Installed Size | 6 | | Customer Reviews | 4.3 out of 5 stars 335 Reviews | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00735858260244, 05032037050739 | | Item Height | 3.8 centimeters | | Item Weight | 0.02 Pounds | | Manufacturer | Intel Corporation | | Model Number | BX80646I54570 | | Platform | No Operating System | | Processor Brand | Intel | | Processor Count | 4 | | Processor Series | Core i5 | | Processor Socket | LGA 1150 | | Processor Speed | 3.6 GHz | | Secondary Cache | 6.0 | | UPC | 809186284712 735858260244 766623439374 675901218870 | | Wattage | 84 watts | ## Product Details - **Brand:** Intel - **CPU Manufacturer:** Intel - **CPU Model:** Core i5 - **CPU Speed:** 3.1 GHz - **CPU Socket:** LGA 1150 ## Images ![Chip 3.1 4 BX80646I54570 - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51JahmcNlUL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Very nice processor *by A***N on March 2, 2014* This CPU is very good, providing very smooth and fast PC usage.
