Review: Great 3.6Ghz 4 core processor with benchmarks similar or better than the Ryzen 1300+ I was considering. - Fast and stable. That's not a political comment! Was considering a Ryzen 1300+, but opted for this instead in the end as it was priced a little cheaper and all the benchmarks I've seen (even with the AMD overclocked) saw it run on a par or faster than the AMD. I had to get a z370 board, but there was an offer on Gigabyte z370-D3 for only about £15 more than the ASRock I was looking at and so far the gigabyte board paring has worked well. I figured I'm getting a better featured board anyway with the ability to expand in the future (over clocking a future processor/memory if I should require). I know that AMD though are going to support their AM platform until 2020, so maybe when I upgrade I'll need a new board anyway if I don't opt for a second hand chip when this intel socket/platform has been superseded. I hadn't built a computer for about 14 years, so just wanted it to work with the least hassle. Seems rock solid so far.
Review: Great little CPU - I got this CPU at a really good price, and while I haven't done a lot of gaming or processor intensive work it does much better than an old i5 that I had in my previous PC. Gaming wise it will run Fortnite and similar games (I'm using motherboard onboard graphics) and it doesn't struggle too much. Easy to install, comes with the fan and it was just so easy to install. Definitely recommend if you don't want to spend a fortune on and i5 or i7 8th generation and not a heavy gamer

## Questions & Answers

**Q: What cooler does it contain? Fan or fan with heatsink**
A: This product comes in 3 different options, i3-8100, i3-8300 & the i3-8350K. The i3-8100 & the i3-8300 DOES INCLUDE a heatsink/fan with pre-applied thermal paste while the i3-8350K DOES NOT INCLUDE a a heatsink/fan. The product pictures show the back of the box & on the 8100 or the 8300, it says "Contents: Intel processor witrh a thermal solution, three-year Limited Warranty and instructions" while the 8350K says "Contents: Intel processor, three-year Limited Warranty and instructions". I can confirm this since I am a system builder & have ordered all 3 options in the recent past. If you are purchasing the i3-8350K, the K means it is unlocked & can be overclocked if you use a Z370 motherboard like this one https://amzn.to/2oUSBVP & this fan https://amzn.to/2oO4oFj has been my go to fan with the 8350K. Hope this helps.

**Q: Does this come with cpu cooler?**
A: fan and cooler included on non k cpus

**Q: does it come with the sticker?**
A: yes, it comes with a sticker that says intel i7 8th gen

**Q: Amazon's description says 95w, Intel's for the same chip says 65w. Please confirm correct?**
A: 65w

Tbh, It fills the bill. I am using it with gtx 1050 ti and 8gb 2400 mhz ddr4 ram. My budged and expectations were not high when building the system. I gave 4 because sometimes I experience fps drop.
