Intel Core i7 2600K LGA1155 CPU Processor Unboxing Linus Tech Tips

[RefleX525]

Do you actually get to keep these products or do you just review them?

[xxxxKURAJBERxxxx]

Intel sucks

[KaluGamer]

is this better or intel core i7 3820?

[harley7777777]

so im new o this i understand is 1155 but when im lookign at the mobo's whats h61, h67,967, and z68? please let me know

[Metroidam11]

@harley7777777 You are better off with z68 mobo. It works well with Sandybridge processors. Look it up on a forum. Not youtube.

[HolyShitAccess]

@harley7777777 Buy a P67 if you have a budget, If not, Z68. Your Welcome =) I personally have a ASrock Z68 Fatal1ty. ($250)

[1nfoJunkie]

Why is he always such a dick to the cameraman?

[RevertEditing]

im looking for parts for a new build and wanted to know everything about the parts im planning on getting, of course all i had to do was copy and paste the model number on your channel search bar and you have a descriptive unboxing, your a freakin saint!

[Federico84]

this cpu requires thermal paste?

[lazimofo90]

yes

[TKDKicker56]

pentium 4 all the way!

[deathblade909]

Would the stock heatsink work good whole I get my h100,

[floxysify]

@deathblade909 stock heatsink is good for basic gaming, not rendering or overcloking

[FBang237]

You have a knife on your lanyard?

[GameVoidCommentaries]

can someone tell me what socket is the best and why and what the socket really does? cause i have no clue and recently was told that i should not buy an LGA1366 cpu but i have no clue why please explain this. thanks in advance

[Juanjomtzp]

haha when you showed the processor to the camera, I just extended my hands thinking "give it to me!!!" hahaha

[neodave5000]

aaah those guys of intel... than Fan is a very good joke.

[LAZrailkapinda]

Yeah I got it !!! I build it .. It's a BEAST. Without OC it goes up to 3.9 !

[Aymdicate]

Can u over clock a 2600 like a 2600k

[DarkZimmer]

@Aymdicate no. The K means it is overclockable

[oWhiteMonster]

@Aymdicate Yes. Using "front side bus" overclocking. the "K" in 2500K mean the MULTIPIER is unlocked.

[PRODVDi]

Wouldn't want to accidentally insert one of these into an LGA1155 socket

[LAZrailkapinda]

Fuck pentium. I bought this processor ... waiting for it to be delivered ...

[Edwin1503]

hey man hopefully someone could help me . heres my specs

Windows 7 Ultimate 64 bit, Asus P8P67 Evo Board ,i7 2600k,8gb Vengance 1600mhz , Msi R6870 Gpu , Patriot Pyro 120GB SSD , and 650 PSU .My question is .. Do i have a decent Rig? this is the first time i build my own and im just wondering what i can do to make it better!! Maybe upgrading from 8 to 16 gb ram? or better GPU? oh and im running all Stock Clocks. maybe if u guys can give me some links on OC. Or If u guys even recomend OC thanks!

[Z3R0studios]

I'm a serious fail... I have a easily over-clockable system but i don't over-clock...

My Specs:

1. Corsair 800D

2. Asus Maximus IV Extreme P67

3. Intel i7 2600K

4. Corsair H100

5. Asus GTX580 Matrix ROG

6. Corsair AX1200

I payed $2500+ for my system and im too scared to over-clock... besides, it runs games like a boss anyway.

[PauliusSmile]

@Z3R0studios

Turn up multiplier and voltage and youre done ;)

[RCspeedbreaker]

What is the different between i7 2600 k and the i7 2600?

[lendial]

@RCspeedbreaker 2600k  can be unlocked (overclocked) ridiculously high.

[ImAHappyPear]

@RCspeedbreaker The Intel i7 2600k is unlocked (marked by the "k" at the end"), which means it is easier to overclock than the Intel i7 2600.

[futokshock]

is 4.6 ghz really that high? should i be concerned because i got my computer second hand and the previous owner overclocked the processor. i have water cooling but i don't know if i should turn down the clock or not.

[AznKizashi]

should i buy a cooler instead of using this one if im going to make a gaming pc?

[CraftableHuman]

would i need any fans if i kept my computer in the freezer?

[Orexll]

@CraftableHuman no, neither will you have a computer...lol, condensation will kill it.

[MultiMustafa90]

what he could fit those 4 cores into his computer the reseblence will be uncanny to real life in detail

[theundergroundforces]

which cpu would be a better choice for a multimedia/gaming pc the i7 2600k/ i5 2500k? i will overclock

[Orexll]

@theundergroundforces you will have a 3FPS deference between the two, because the 2600k is just a 2500k with HT, and games don't use HT... so use the extra 100$ and get a better GPU.

[DiDarkdemon]

Does overclocking a processor reduces its life span even if it's well cooled kept under 40°c most of the time? or are there other things else than heat affecting the processor?

[9ggubZprod]

Is it worth to upgrade from core i5-750 to this processor?

[MarkSkrams]

@9ggubZprod definitely.

[wmw0702]

i can't believe linus hasn't got anything about i7 2700k!! it's now january 2012!!

[TXWFilms]

Thumbs up if you have Thumbs... LoL

[KULA198822]

what will be better and quieter and more efficient?

1.Corsair H60

2.Antec Kuhler 920

3.CoolMaster V8

4. Be Quiet Dark Rock Pro C1

[Zorofar]

@KULA198822 For air cooling, A Noctua NH DH-14, best Air Cooler on the market, but if you can't afford that, then a Cooler Master Hyper 212 Plus, or Evo, 2nd best air cooler on the market, IMO.

[KULA198822]

@Zorofar you think Noctua NH DH-14 fits into Antec Dark Fleet DF10 or DF30?

[Zorofar]

@KULA198822 I don't know myself, but after quick research, it might not. It probably will, but will most likely be a tight fit, so you'll be better off with a smaller cooler.

[masterpanda12]

just found the definition of MAJOR LEUGE NERDING!!!!!!!!!

[sovietkitty101]

@masterpanda12 Shame you didn't find the spelling.

[xchimino2]

I just built myself an i7 2600k rig and DAMN... The thing runs lightning fast! I'm impressed!

[lamiac2411]

@xchimino2 Let me ask you. I just ordered an i7 2600k with an Gigabyte UD4 motherboard. I currently run a phenom x4 965 OC @3.8ghz. Along with a Radeon 4890 Lol. Crd a bit outdated card I built the rig 3 years ago. Anyways Did you switch from AMD or is this your first rig? The reason I ask is I got the 2600k along with a superclocked GTX 570. I wanted to know if you noticed a huge performance boost going from AMD if you did

[mas1234ify]

0:20 funny camera man

[ThePakenshet]

my friend have a problem about the core 2 quad cpu because he can only use his computer about 13 hours only after that his computer will shut down and a blue screen appear..

[ZarCus1984]

@ThePakenshet that's "Blue Screen of Death" you can find help on the internet to fix it...

but in my own opinion the best solution for that is to reformat to clean-up your disk and wipe out all remaining's.....

[ThePakenshet]

AMD FTW !!! pls dont dislike this.. >:D

[LowGasPricesHD]

thumbs up if you still have a PENTIUM processor, oh wait no one does... scrap dat

[Gr4v1tY1]

@LowGasPricesHD I do... ;(

Thankfully, ordered a new computer :D i5 Processor! Expects it this week!

[ThePakenshet]

@LowGasPricesHD i do still have my PENTIUM POOR CPU.. :D

[Sm311yBaT]

@LowGasPricesHD i have :'(

[Orexll]

@LowGasPricesHD I Have A P4!! Well i do, it's on my desk.. but i use a 2500k in my rig though...lol

[LowGasPricesHD]

@Orexll I have a p4 in my fridge but i have a 2600k in my rig :p

[EmoticonMayhem]

@LowGasPricesHD my mum has a pentium d, and I have a computer lying around with a Pentium 4, but I never use that computer because it has a pentium 4 XD

[TheTako400]

@LowGasPricesHD You'd be surprised at the amount of people that still have Pentium's.

[joeycool12]

@LowGasPricesHD i still do but i just got my i5 2500k with p8p67 evo mobo

[Darbaz009]

@LowGasPricesHD i DO l00l

[ttimonn]

@LowGasPricesHD I have one :P

[basbas63]

@LowGasPricesHD lol i have a pc i mess around with that has a pentium cpu.. it runs at 233 mhz and has windows 95 on it, it isn't bad to be honest xD you can't play vids.. or new games (only realllly old games) but ey... i can use office software.. and play little games on it :P it is kinda fun to have.. but yeah.. it is really useless there days..

[onlyuseoverpowerdgun]

@LowGasPricesHD I have a celeron FUCK MY LIFE =(

[seroyer2]

@LowGasPricesHD My dad's computer is from 2001 its got a P4, my computer has a Core 2 duo. The computer I'm building right now will have a 2700k.

[killerriot22]

@LowGasPricesHD actually im still using a Pentuim M series laptop right now...

[SPRacersDragon]

@LowGasPricesHD I upgraded from P4 Dual E2220 to i7 2700k.

Rendering an graphic-equalizer in Cinema 4D with

P4: 25 hours

i7 2700k: 45 min

[TechGigs]

@SPRacersDragon can you please tell me your complete specs? I'm also trying to build this machine

[SPRacersDragon]

@TechGigs I collected my specs in a pdf, but in german. I send you an PM

[TheMastaGlazy]

@LowGasPricesHD B-b-b-but.... i do Q.Q

[onlyuseoverpowerdgun]

@LowGasPricesHD Thumps up if you have a CELERON

WHAT its only me =(=(=(=(

[LowGasPricesHD]

@onlyuseoverpowerdgun it still amazes me how people ask for thumbs up by spelling "thumps" up.

[GerbiGerbilLok]

@LowGasPricesHD Hey i like my socket 478 pentium 4

[MrSantiago485]

hey can you use the stock heatsink for overclocking?

[CharlieWalkerPCTech]

Hey Linus can you do a review on the Asus Maximus IV Extreme-Z motherboard?

[xxslayer66xx]

@CharlieWalkerPCTech I have it and its awsome it has everything you could possibly imagine.

[NeoLogic94]

LOOK AT THAT THING!

[MrNewGuyGaming]

Thumbs up if you feel like giving a thumbs up to a useless comment that's asking for a thumbs up!

[F4H33M97]

what is the difference between the oem box?

[fetchcats123]

wow Does It Run All GAMES

[ImMaccoz]

@fetchcats123 Depends on your Graphics card.

[sDL4EveRmaRs]

LOL!, THIS COMPANY IS RICH!!, I don't have any of that kind of SHIT!! HAVING 1 OF THAT IS MY DREAM!!, :((

[imjansd]

0.21 lllllook at the thing lol

[NOOBLIFIER]

gonna get this for the acer im getting :p

[zockenderzocker]

I still have a Pentium 4 processor...

But I will be getting a gaming PC with a i7 2600k and a gtx 580 soon :D

[comneard55]

whats the best motherboards for this processor?

[hARVoThe96]

look at the thing!

[rolandFTW000]

somebody make a overclocking guide for this cpu!

[rolandFTW000]

@rolandFTW000 lol, seems there already is one...srry guys

[for818]

does the intel core i7 2600k stock cooler have a thermal pad on it already or do u have to get thermal paste for the cpu?

[baxter051]

@for818 lol stock cooler.

[for818]

@baxter051 lol ur a fag

[baxter051]

@for818 lol kill yourself.

[for818]

@baxter051 lololol ur a retarted fag that only knows how to piss people off=D i hope u get paid for what u do if not your fuked =D

[pipaCZECH]

I never get Processor unboxings, utterly pointless, they all look nearly exactly the same. Just talk about the benchmarks performance TDP etc. :) No need to unbox.

[Pijm0]

The nerd is strong in this one...

[dimaflour]

great cpu

[The1cristi]

So this is better then the i7 970?

[ShinigamiCSN]

"Darth vader mask style" XD

[nemac09]

Thumbs up if you have an AMD processor, but you want Intel...

[123thepyro123]

@nemac09 I have a 5 year old AMD Athlon processor.. And yes, I want a intel processor which I'm also getting next month..

[Su8arglid3r]

"Look at the thing!"

[rexza73]

Thumbs up if you think the Intel Stock coller sucks

[rexza73]

Thumbs Up If You think Intel Core i7 lga1155 is better than intel core i7 lga1366 lol XD

[schabadas1]

2600k or 2700k? pls answer

[XxYouGotJakedxX]

@schabadas1 2600k is the better buy. The 2700k is just the 2600k with an extra 100MHz. If your getting a k-series processor, I'm guessing you'll be overclocking, so that 100MHz doesn't mean much at all. You might be able to squeeze out an extra 100MHz, but is it worth the extra $50? In my opinion, no. It's your call though. I was in your situation a few weeks ago also :D

[schabadas1]

@XxYouGotJakedxX thnx for your response. i appreciate it. i ordered the 2600k finally. thank u!!

[XxYouGotJakedxX]

@schabadas1 No problem glad to help :)

[AkHarith67]

Thumbs up if you have an Intel Celeron. I'm guessing none of you do. :(

[Eng1neering]

Can someone help me? I'm buying a laptop from Dell soon, and IDK whether it's a 2600k, or a 2700k, or...i just don't know how to tell lol...the processor that i want to get is either an "Intel core i7 2760QM processor 2.40 GHz with Turbo boost 2.0 up to 3.5 GHz"

OR Intel core i7 2670 QM processor 2.20 GHz with Turbo Boost 2.0 up to 3.10 GHz...

Anyone mind filling me in? I'm a beginner at all this..Btw both are 2nd generation...

Any kind of advice would be good. Thanks!!

[walther89]

i dont what motherboard to buy for 1155 i7 2600k socet

plz help me out tell good product not over 1,3k$

[MrPekosTech]

Look, look at the thing!

[SkaterNamedLnxX]

Thumbs up if you have Pentium 4 :D

[UndefinedParameter]

Thumbs up if you don't have a computer.

[SlimMrJim]

Thumbs up if you're still stuck with Pentium... :(

[jeenormus]

I am considering a 26k build I already own a amd build question is is it worth it

[naptic]

@jeenormus same, sadly I'm thinking it is

[Manxman86]

I did have a 2600k on order on a new pc build., just changed that to the 2700k instead for £6 extra :D

[rickfish12]

this worth getting for a gaming pc ?

[gamersgetto]

1:53 never do that at home children!!!!

[yc1494Tech]

@gamersgetto its his shank if he ever gets mugged :P

[hunterofall]

Pause at VERY beginning of video...RAPE FACE!

But with all due seriousness...LOVE my 2600k =)

[SexyToshi]

Thumbs up for those annoying thumbs up comments!

[tousif2001]

Core 2 suxx big time!I gave it free to one of mah friends!!

[pivotdeadking]

Thumbs up if you still have an CORE 2 processor

[phoenixsonoma]

@pivotdeadking core 2 quad Q9400

but i want the 2600k!!

[pivotdeadking]

@phoenixsonoma i have Core 2 quad Q8200

[mass3gf]

@pivotdeadking I have a core 2 duo E6600 @2.4Ghz tha runs BF3 lol wih only 2 GB RAM and a GTX 460 and I can still run BF3 at 30fps+ lol :D

[Deathtitan100]

thumbs up if you have a i7 2600k and you think they are worth the money!!

[Eltonto32]

@Deathtitan100 You are smoking dope! The i5 is the best!

[AMJ600]

@Deathtitan100 are those ok for gaming

?

[fshlps]

@AMJ600 These are Awesome for Gaming (I Have on myself)

[GamersCanGame]

@Mssly99 umm that is your personal preference if u need a cpu like NOW get the i5 2500k and save up for ivybridge

[egotrippen216bw]

@Mssly99 Ivy Bridge will be %10 faster, sandy bridge -e is another beast

[CongDanhVip]

You're Millionnare + Trillionnare! You have alot of computer,cpu,memory,...

[TheFR3SHINATOR]

Is this a good set up? Case - Coolermaster HAF X Gaming Case Motherboard - Asus P8Z68-V PRO Intel Z68 CPU - Intel Core i7 2700K (when out) Heatsink - Arctic Cooling Freezer 7 Pro Rev 2 RAM - Corsair Vengeance 16GB PC3-15000C9 GPU - EVGA GeForce GTX 580 DS SuperClocked 1536MB SSD - OCZ Agility 3 60GB 2.5" SATA-3 HDD - x2 Seagate Barracuda Green 2TB SATA 6Gb in RAID1 Monitor - Asus VE247H 24" Mouse - Razer Imperator 2012 Edition Keyboard - Logitech G110 Gaming Keyboard Headset - Razer Carcharias

[k0rvapuusti]

It's not LGA 1155 it'z 1156

[TheFR3SHINATOR]

@k0rvapuusti no its a LGA 1155 CPU. -_-

[chingano]

one more thing some guys are using 1600mhz ram on the 2600k and intels website says 1066-1333 mhz support only, whats going on?

[adidam1706]

will this processor be a good match with the GTX 570 or 580?

[TheFR3SHINATOR]

@adidam1706 Since this is the highest processor tied with the i5 2500K processor in the PC gaming industry, i would suggest the GTX 580 since you need a good GPU to go with a good CPU, or you can save up and get the GTX 590 in dual SLI, i think is the best of the best.

[adidam1706]

@TheFR3SHINATOR ok thanks bro :)

[chingano]

should i get the msi Z68A-GD80 (G3) or Z68A-GD65 (G3) for this processor?

advice please

[TheFR3SHINATOR]

@chingano I would pick neither and go with the Asus P8Z68-V PRO Intel Z68 but if you prefer MSI than Asus go with the MSI Z68A-GD80. :)

[chingano]

@TheFR3SHINATOR i chose Asus the P8Z68-V PRO first but when i read that the Z68A-GD80 (G3) and Z68A-GD65 (G3) has the new ivy and pci 3.0 then i change my mind and thought it would be better cuz maybe i can change my processor and the graphics card to the new gen :D what do u think?

[TheFR3SHINATOR]

@chingano I would still choose the Asus Motherboard if you are going to stick with the 2600K or maybe wait til the 2700K comes out on the 24th this month (the difference between the two is that there is a 0.1GHz speed ratio) I hardy doubt that the MSI board will be compatible with the new ivy bridge CPU because since the new ivy bridge will have a 1155 Socket while the ivy bridge will LIKELY have a 2011 Socket so you would have to look at a whole new motherboard with a 2011 Socket. Wait or buy:D

[chingano]

@TheFR3SHINATOR now i found a new motherboard :D:D:D ASUS P8Z68-V PRO/GEN3, Socket-1155 and i'll maybe stick with this one, btw the msi msi Z68A-GDxx (G3) boards are compatible with the new ivy brigde cuz they have support for 22nm tecknology and PCI 3.0 graphics card :D

[TheFR3SHINATOR]

@chingano God luck with your new computer :D

[TheFR3SHINATOR]

@chingano Me personally, i'll be getting the new i7 3820 CPU Standard Mode - 3.6GHz (i7 2600K - 3.4GHz) Turbo Mode - 3.9GHz (i7 2600K - 3.9GHz) Sadly there won't be any on board Graphics but why would you not buy a graphics card with this high end CPU and it will be cheaper i7 3820 - $294 (i7 2600K - $317) but ive not seen any motherboards with the LGA 2011 Socket though. (Don't buy it if you want to overclock it though, you can't overclock it but i'm not an overclocking guy) :D

[chingano]

@TheFR3SHINATOR mate, the ivy bridge will be a lga-1155 socket...

[TheFR3SHINATOR]

@chingano No i7 3820 is an LGA 2011 (just type "i7 3820 in Google and click the first link. It says that the socket is a LGA 2011) That is why i'm saying that the MSI board you were looking at will likely be incompatible with the Ivy Bridge/Sandybridge-E CPU :D

[chingano]

@TheFR3SHINATOR then which processor are they talking about when they said new gen 22nm processor??

[TheFR3SHINATOR]

@chingano I don't know?

[chingano]

@TheFR3SHINATOR u dont know if u can use 1600 mhz or not?

[TheFR3SHINATOR]

@chingano by 1600Mhz i take it you are talking about DDR3 Memory, yes you can run 1600mhz, my friend has a 2600K and he has got 16GB Corsair Vengeance 1866MHz and i've change my mind, i will be getting the 2700K, i just figured out that the LGA 2011 motherboards are priced around $400 which is out of my price range :D

[chingano]

@TheFR3SHINATOR cool i think i'll do that but not sure cuz i think that theres not so much difference.

[MasterSw1ft]

@TheFR3SHINATOR NO, stop right there and wait for the i7 2700k that's coming out REALLY soon

[TheFR3SHINATOR]

@MasterSw1ft That is what i am doing (it comes out on the 24th this month) :)

[MasterSw1ft]

@TheFR3SHINATOR where's you find out it was the 24th? I thought I'd read just about every article on it!

[TheFR3SHINATOR]

@MasterSw1ft It says on my local computer parts store and the Sandy Bridge Wiki :)

[TheArea510]

@MasterSw1ft wait 2700K coming soon? but i just bought the 2600k,fuck

[MasterSw1ft]

@TheArea510 Yep, comes out on Monday! But TBH you 2600K is 95% the same thing really, and it's a bit cheaper. don't worry. ;)

[sjoerd94]

@MasterSw1ft only differnce is 2700k's clock speed, which is 100mhz higher, but if youre smart you can overclock it yourself and save some cash

[MasterSw1ft]

@sjoerd94 2700k overclocks the same with less voltage than the 2600.

[sjoerd94]

@MasterSw1ft who gives a fuck about increasing the voltage 0.05?
