I assembled my Mining Rig with this cpu and she handles very good everything! Really good price for a really good cpu.

Good processor and quality product for the money,it also comes with the cooler.(i just touched with finger the thermal paste, on the backside that`s why).Works well,no issues were discovered during this time, aslo the temperature of the processor as you can see.

Purchased for a Plex media center. Works great - loving the hardware transcodes with Intel QuickSync. Handles moderate work loads without issues and can actually be used for light gaming as well. Temps are also good, and the chip is running cool and quiet with a Noctua cooler. Overall very pleased with this upgrade.

I'm using this for a media center PC, it is using the CPU's graphics.I had my mobo die and it had a i5-8700 in it and I found that the 1151 in that gen is not compatable with current 1151 (thanks, Intel). I was not 100% sure the CPU did not die with the board and old style 1151 boards are hard to find and expensive, so I did a full replacement.I went from a i5-6400 to this i3-9100, and it is actually an upgrade, this i3 outperforms the i5 in benchmarks by 17% and is actually noticeably more peppy than the old processor.This is based on running Linux, Windows is very inefficient so it's hard to say how well it runs under windows - but as a Linux media server, it shines.
