Intel 3rd Generation Core i5-3570K CPU (4 x 3.40GHz, Ivy Bridge, Socket 1155, 6Mb L3 Cache, Intel Turbo Boost Technology 2.0)

Arrived quickly and is working well - nice

Bought this to replace my current quad core Intel Q4400. Installed processor and heat sink easily and I can see a marked improvement in performance. Price to performance was the main reason I bought this i5 rather than an i7. Highly recommended.

this is a really good processor, the only thing was the price £160 in september 2014

I didn't like the price for a 3rd gen card but boy was it worth it. I've overclocked to 4.2 with no probs and I'm now fully utilising my 16gb of ram. Its given my ASrock pro 3 board a good few years more life use at a reasonable cost. It feel like i've got a new machine, especially when multi tasking while editing photos on lightroom

A massive upgrade from my i3 in gaming terms. My loading screens were hanging around for a long time, and when playing online games it gave me an unfair advantage. With the i5 they are so much quicker. probably loads a game in about 20 seconds. This working along side my Samsung SSD, my computer really does fly now.

Arrived on time , works fine and deffinetly got more grunt than my old i5

This is just amazing. Used it in my PC build recently and going from an AMD Athlon x4 605e to this was just great. This with an SSD, Raptor hard drive and 16 gig of ram really makes for a swift machine.

It works for me

I recently upgraded from an AMD 955 CPU to an i5 3570k CPU, and I must say that Intel has gained another convert. This CPU will chew through any game, and I get much better performance than I ever did with the 955--the 3570k simply blows AMD out of the water. I do not do any sort of image editing or video encoding, so this review is written entirely from a gamer's perspective. PROS: -Great for extremely CPU-intensive games like the Total War games (Empire and Shogun 2 in particular). These games are fairly difficult to run smoothly at very high graphics settings due in large part to incredible (but demanding) particle effects, high unit density, shadow effects and many others, but the 3570k has no problems handling Empire at max settings (assuming you have a decent GPU to boot). -I get much higher frame-rates and better performance in games like Crysis, Crysis 2, BF3, Max Payne 3, Empire: Total War, and Deus Ex 3 as well as older games like FEAR, Half-Life 2 and Rome: Total War. -Achieves an overclock of 4.3-4.6GHz without much trouble at all (I've got mine at 4.5 GHz), at least on a Gigabyte Z77-UD3H motherboard. -Using the Gigabyte Z77-UD3H MB I managed to OC to 4.3GHz with no stability issues at stock CPU Vcore voltage (1.13 V). -Built-in Turbo boost feature clocks the 3570k up to 3.8GHz--which is a pretty decent boost and would be a good option for gamers who are uncomfortable with messing with BIOS settings to OC their CPUs. -Almost identical to the 3770K in terms of gaming performance. Benchmark scores for a number of games show marginal (if any) improvements for the 3770k. Other benchmarks and certain games like the Total War series actually see improved frame-rates with the 3570k versus the 3770k. CONS: -It does run somewhat hot--I get temps in the high 70s, low 80s (deg C) with the Cooler Master Hyper 212 EVO (with Arctic Silver 5 TIM) at 4.5GHz and 1.35 Volts. However, IB CPUs are designed to withstand more heat, so this is not a huge issue, but it may warrant considering a pricier cooler if you want to OC to around 5 GHz or higher. OVERALL: The 3570k is an excellent CPU for any game on the market with a great performance-to-price ratio. Virtually all gaming performance benchmarks that you will find give near identical results for the 3570k and 3770k, so I would save yourself $100 and take the 3570K over the 3770k and put that money into a better graphics card or an SSD. If you already have a 2500k I would say that a 3570k is not worth the upgrade, but if you have anything older or are looking to switch over to Intel from AMD I would highly recommend it!

今回、アマゾンで以下のPCパーツを購入し初自作しました！ M/B ASUS P8Z77-V pro CPU core i5-3570k RAM ADATA XPGseries 型番 AX3U1600GC4G9-2G 4Gの2枚セット品ｘ2 (16GB) GPU ELSA Geforce GTX660 S.A.C を2枚（Tiではありません^^;) PSU オウルテック SeaSonic SS-1050XM (1050W電源） OS Windows7 Home 64bit(以前から所有していた物） HDD WesternDigital Blue 3.5inch 7200rpm 500GB 32MBキャッシュ SATA3.0 WD5000AZLX(OS用) 構成はこんな感じです！ 3年ほど前にBTOパソコンを注文し、いろいろPCゲームをやっていくうちにパワー不足を感じ思い切って自作で 満足ができて、まったくストレスを感じず予算を抑えたPC構成考えました。 以前のPCはcore2duoのE7500とちょっと古いCPUを使っていましたが今回3570ｋに変えて、ネットもエンコードも 以前とは比べ物にならないほど早くなりました！ 正直もうちょっと予算があれば、GTX670のSLI構成にしたかったのですが予算の関係上GTX670を1本かランクを落として 男なら誰でも夢見る、SLIにしようか悩んだ挙句GTX660の性能レビューを参考にこいつのSLI構成にしました。 現在プレイ中のゲームはBF3・Skyrim・英語版Crysis3など主にやっています この構成にした感想は、正直言うとぬるぬるですｗ CPUに関してはまず間違いなくこのCPUで問題なくゲームプレイできるので大変気に入っています！ これから自作される方などでゲーミングPCを作る方にはおすすめできるCPUだと思います。 通販サイトのBTOパソコンだとi7-3770か3770Kとちょっと高いCPUが主なラインナップでしたが 正直3570ｋもしくは3570でも十分だと思います。 その分グラボやSSDなどの方に予算まわせると思いますのでコスパが非常によいCPUだと感じる一方で 3770Kでハイパースレッティングが気になる私でしたｗ あとは、よく言われるIvy特有の熱問題ですがCPUクーラーはENERMAX製 ETD-T60-VDのトップフロータイプのクーラー使用してますが よく冷えてる方だと思います。（他のクーラーはわかりませんが^^;) アイドル時で37℃、高負荷時で61℃くらいです（CPUはOCして4.2GHz駆動です） OCしててこの温度なら低い方ではないかと思いますが他の方はどうなのでしょうか？ 正直わかりませんｗ こんな感じで今のところ問題なくゲーミングライフを満喫中です(o^―^o)

Tengo que reconocer que todo ha sido muy rápido y eficaz. Desde la petición del pedido, el envoltorio, el envío.

Tengo questo processore da più di 2 anni, e non mi ha mai deluso. Riesco a giocare qualsiasi gioco per PC

Considering the price, shipping time, and performance, I'd say this was a very great purcahse. This CPU is esentially the one to buy for gamers right now. In terms of gaming performance, it is pretty much at the top of the line, right along with the i7-3770k. It is also multiplier unlocked, meaning that overclocking with a good cooler is relatively easy. Just make sure you have a motherboard that supports changes to the multiplier! If you don't plan on overclocking, the i5-3770 is just as good, and it's cheaper. People who are looking for a CPU solution that will focus more on video encoding or tasks that require a lot of processor power might be better off with a different choice. I do not know too much about that, but looking at benchmarks of other CPUs running whatever programs you are planning to run is a good idea. However as far as general use goes I am confident that this processor will hold up with most top of the line CPUs. And as far as gaming is concerned, people who want top of the line performance will be getting just that at the best available price. AMD's FX-8350 is a viable alternative for just $189.99, however based on reviews and benchmarks, the CPU tends to run hot as well as draw lots of power, and loses a lot of ground when it comes to CPU intensive games. In more GPU intensive games it tends to keep up, losing only 1-3 FPS. Overall, the i5-3570k is the winner, however it might be smart to save $120 bucks if the FX-8350 runs the games and programs that you are planning on running well enough. However the i5-3570k will almost certainly last longer and perform better across the board. Anyways, this is a great CPU and I recommend it to any gamer looking for a CPU upgrade. It runs cool, does not draw too much power, and delivers top of the line gaming performance at the best available price.
