Pros

Intel core i7-4770 quad-core desktop processor 3. Ghz lga 1150 works great. asus black 12x bd-rom 16x dvd-rom 48x cd-rom sata internal blu-ray drive.

thermal compound is pre-applied to the copper contact surface on the heat sink/fan. Overclocks with ease even with the included oem fan. No overheating problems and overclock works perfectly, though i doubt you'll ever need to use it.

This is the stable non-k 4770 version, which means it's slightly cheaper than the 4770k because it isn't over-clockable. I use my machine for a lot of parallel number crunching and have found it to be quite fast.



Cons

The box says intel 4770. I look at the cpu closely and realize that underneath the made in vietnamese sticker there are two stickers.

Packaging/appearance


I was pleasantly surprised to find a 4790 in the package.
