Intel Core i5 6500 Desktop Processor 4 Core 3.2 GHz Socket LGA 1151, ?1357826

I am so thankful to Intel .Amazon fast delivery is an exceptionWorks like a charm I setup everything myself and I did this for this time that I built my own rigThis processor is enough to work games like Cs go and CS 1.6 and the games like ps1 and ps2 as well ... I am sure you will be happy with this product !

Good enough for gaming. You don't need an i7 to game.If you aren't getting a Z170/Z270/X99 motherboard and the most you are doing is gaming - this is as high as you should go. If you do video editing or any CPU intensive tasks get an i7.If you want to overclock - get the k-series i5.Kaby Lake update : Kaby Lake CPUs don't seem to have that much of an improvement (gaming-wise) and command a price premium. If prices do come down - get a Kaby Lake i5.

Hey there i am actually reviewing this product after using this for 4 months.So i have come to know more about this product.So lets actually ome straight into the review.The intel core i5 6500 has 4 cores and 4 threadsHas a good clockspeed of 3.2 ghz which can turbo upto 3.6 ghz.Has 6 mb of L3 cacheThis is based on the 14nm architecture which means that this is both powerful and power efficient.This is good buy for most of the use case scenarios.So lets come to both the pros and consPROSHas 4 physical cores and 4 threadsGood clockspeedGood amount of cache memory14 nmNow lets come to theCONSIt is now a couple of years old you can better buy the 7th gen processorsIt is not overclockableIt is not great for video editing.SO now VERDICTThis is a great processor in many ways and good for many use case scenarios and has only little amount of flaws.Just GO FOR IT.

Good product for gaming with .... With no overclocking ability yet this cpu is a better choise than the next 6600 version by saving 2k and receiving a same performance

Pretty nice, it may not be as good as the k series but it does the job pretty well! Good enough for games and stuff

Best processor for high end gaming. For 16k a good balance between price, performance & power consumption. Pair this processor with an AMD R9-380 (4GB) or nvidia 970 plus 8GB system ramIf you can stretch your budget go for the i5 6600 (65w TDP)

Received in good condition, on time, product was as expected.i am happy :)

After 7 days of waiting finally i have received my order .this product is amazing now i am able to play almost games

The title says most of it. It's a good chip if you're not running anything super demanding like content development. It will do it reliably, but it's a bit slow. Probably good for teaching kids patience. It's getting outdated though, because it doesn't run AVX instructions... in lamens if you try to play Cyberpunk 2077 with it, it will crash your video drivers. It's likely AVX instructions will be used in software more and more so this chip might be useless in a few years.... assuming loads of programmers have shifty coding practices like CD Project Red. Many programs have workarounds, so there is hope for this chip yet.Badly optimized games aside, it will play most games flawlesy. I played portal without a GPU and it was brilliant. Paired with the good old NVidia GTX1080 I play Mortal Kombat 10/11 with the graphics maxed out no problem. Provided the game is optimized well it will play nicely... might need to lower the graphics though.

Para aquellos que no tengan el presupuesto para un i7, este i5 es una muy buena opcion, mas que suficiente para el software actual si no te dedicas a realizar renderizados o diseños en CAD bastantes pesados que consumen mucho CPU, su reloj base es de 3.2 Ghz y con turbo Boost de 3.6 el cual es automático, con videos a 2K no tiene ningun problema en procesarlos, temperaturas muy buenas con disipador de stock ( máximas alcanzadas con temperatura ambiente de 36º han sido 40º cuando mucho ), para aquellos que se quieran armar un equipo gaming, el procesador es mas que suficiente puesto que el trabajo real se lo lleva la tarjeta de video y el procesador solamente se encarga de las fisicas del juego, por lo que este es buena opcion si quieres un equipo para trabajo de oficia, desarrollo y juegos ocasionales. cabe aclarar que al ser 6ª generación, es posible utilizarlo con windows 7 sin problemas, ya que la 7ª generación de este ya no soporta este sistema operativo y solamente podrían trabajar con windows 8.1 en adelante, así que si eres uno de los que prefiere windows 7o tener la posibilidad de algun dia usarlo esta es la mejor opción.

Pour le prix c'est un excellent processeur. Je ne suis pas fan d'Intel mais il faut dire que le prix il fait très bien son travail.L'IPC (instruction per clock) sur 1 Coeur dépasse largement tout processeur AMD actuel. Fourni de 4 coeurs, 8 threads, pour les ordinateur de jeu il est largement suffisant.Couplé à une R9 390 il ne sera jamais le point faible de votre rig pour du jeu. Pour jouer à n'importe quel jeu en 1440p il est largement suffisant.Si maintenant vous êtes un enthousiaste de l'overclocking et des benchmarks extremes, allez chercher plus puissant, mais personnellement je n'en vois pas l'intérêt (pour le jeu en tous cas).Même avec le Ventirad de stock il reste froid (comptez 50C-60C max). Je pense qu'aujourd'hui il s'agit du meilleur rapport qualité/prix pour tout gamer.

Escogí este procesador ya que por el precio que tiene puede darme una vida útil muy larga sin necesidad de cambiarlo en varios años. Tras unos días de trabajando con el, he podido comprobar que rinde a un gran nivel en cualquier tarea.Estuve dudando entre coger el I5 6400 y este y me decante por el I5 6500 ya que es un poco mas potente por poco dinero mas. Creo que he acertado eligiendo este ultimo ya que a la larga se notara.Recomiendo comprar este procesador para tareas que sean mas exigentes a la ofimática, como por ejemplo diseño o juegos. Es recomendable comprar un disipador de otra marca que sea mas silencioso y enfríe mas ya que el de stock se queda un poco corto

Migliore CPU, rapportata a qualità/prezzo. Leggermente inferiore (solo 100 mhz) alla sua sorella superiore (i5-6600) di cui costa anche circa 40,00 euro in meno e nettamente superiore (500 Mhz) alla sorella minore (i5-6400) per soli 20,00 circa in più. Accoppiata ad una MSI GTX 960 GAMING 4G nei giochi non supera mai il 40% del suo carico lavoro producendo pochissimo calore e riservandomi potenza in futuro per eventuale cambio GPU. Provengo da una lunga serie di CPU AMD, dovendo rifare il PC e in cerca di miglioramenti ho voluto cambiare, non conosco bene i precedenti Intel, ma con questa CPU AMD, rispetto ad Intel, è indietro anni luce ! reattività, produzione di calore e potenza di calcolo non hanno eguali rispetto alla diretta concorrente nonostante AMD usi frequenze maggiori e 8 core (con TDP a 160 Mhz e conseguente produzione immensa di calore che comporta l'uso obbligatorio di dissipatore a liquido) non riesce a raggiungere la fluidità di questa CPU. Di superiore c'è l'i7-7xxx ma serve più che altro per il video-editing, per il gaming se non siete interessati all'OC questa, secondo me, è la migliore CPU.
