Fantastic Value Mid-Range CPU – Great Performance for the Price

I’ve been using the Intel Core i5-10400F in my build, and it’s a fantastic processor for gaming and productivity. It delivers solid multi-core performance at a budget-friendly price, making it a great option for mid-range systems.With 6 cores and 12 threads clocking up to 4.3 GHz, this CPU handles gaming, multitasking, and general productivity with ease. It runs modern games smoothly when paired with a decent GPU, and it handles light video editing and streaming without issues.This CPU performs exceptionally well in gaming, offering frame rates comparable to higher-tier processors when paired with a capable GPU. It also handles multitasking (browsing, streaming, and gaming simultaneously) with no hiccups.With a 65W TDP, it runs cool and power-efficient. Even under load, temperatures remain manageable with the stock cooler—though upgrading to a better cooler is 100% recommended as stock coolers usually are terrible which I'll explain later.Works flawlessly with Intel 400 series chipsets and fits into the LGA1200 socket. Installation was straightforward, and the CPU was recognized immediately.Issues you may want to consider before buying:The "F" series lacks integrated graphics, which means you must use a dedicated GPU. This isn’t an issue for gaming setups but could be inconvenient if you’re troubleshooting without a graphics card. The included cooler is terrible, it’s not ideal for overclocking or heavy sustained loads, or even normal use. If you plan on pushing the CPU or just try and use it for gaming, you’ll want to upgrade to a better cooler. Since this is a non-K processor, it has limited overclocking potential. However, it still boosts up to 4.3 GHz automatically, which is plenty for most users.Overall:The Intel Core i5-10400F is a fantastic mid-range CPU that offers excellent gaming and multitasking performance for the price. It’s power-efficient, reliable, and affordable, making it perfect for budget-conscious gamers and general-purpose users. Just keep in mind that you’ll need a dedicated GPU and might want to upgrade the cooler if you plan on long gaming sessions or heavier workloads. Highly recommended for gaming rigs and productivity builds on a budget!

used and runs great

Bought this on Amazon used, for an upgrade from i-3, easy swap, runs great no complaints. i5 10400f was a great budget choice for a gaming machine, without paying too much money for an upgrade.Great seller, good value

A great all-around CPU

The Intel i5 400 series is by far the best bang for the buck CPU on the market. I have made two custom build towers with the i5 9400F and the i5 10400F, and both have turned out to be great CPUs for gaming and productivity. However, I will be stepping up for my next build. The CPU speed of the i5 10600K is twice as fast as the 400F series. Adobe Photoshop benefits from the higher speed, so I will be using the 600K series from now on. Either way, you cannot go wrong with the i5 10400F or the i5 10600KF, both are great for playing triple-A games.

Good processor, but buy your own cooler.

Good used processor. Works just fine. Supplied cooler on the other hand is not good. Started gaming and temps soared to 100 degrees Celsius before thermal throttling. No big deal. Got a decent cooler and temps are perfectly fine now.

Good budget cpu for gaming

The media could not be loaded. It has been working perfectly so far and it's great for gaming, if you want to stream triple A games I would recommend an i7 10700 or higher.
