Intel Core i7-4770S, 4 Cores & 8 Threads Unlocked Desktop Processor with Intel HD Graphics 4600

Very fast CPU, love that it's low power. Since I need more words, I'd like to point out that the fit into the socket was perfect, so points for manufacturing tolerances to high standards :-)

This is a great processor when it works, it does run hot, but draws lower power than a non S processor. That being said, because it is an S processor, it is taken from batches that are lower quality than say a K processor, and will likely die shortly after the warranty expires. This is exactly what happened with mine, and Intel doesn't seem like a company that will work with customers a single day past that expiration. Mine was warrantied up to March of 2017, and it failed in June 2017. $300 is a lot to pay for hardware that can't live past 3 years.Update: They were reluctant at first to honor the warranty as it was a few months past...but after explaining the situation they did replace the broken CPU and now my PC works again. I'm very grateful that they did. I changed my rating again because they did that for me, usually big companies like this do not do it, I was very surprised. I will stay with intel for sure.

It is very fast and meets expectations for use in computer graphics and in games that require processing for rendering

I purchase this specific model of processor (i7-4770S) but I received another model instead (i5-4570S)I don't live in US and I just realized that when I was upgrading my PC.It's a bad thing that I received the wrong product, but at least Amazon gave me a refund of the difference between these two models.I have a friend in US, I will buy it again and delivery to him, when he get back to my country I'll get the processor. I hope this time they don't commit the same mistake again
