fast gaming chip

Got this for $179.99 with a SSD, evga 1060 and 16gb ram and it runs like a complete dream. All games have been played flawlessly and system is very responsive im very happy with my purchase. I bought this in one of their stores in Chicago. I do not overclock so this was the obvious choice for me.

Cons:
  • Intel's B360 motherboards won't be available until 2018 and the cost of Z370 boards strains the value of this offer

Intel Core i5-8400 2.8 GHz

The Core i5-8400 is Intel's most affordable option to go beyond a quad-core setup on the desktop. With a price point of $190, it is only half the price of Core i7-8700K, but delivers nearly the same performance in games and can also compete with the Ryzen 6c12t processors thanks to its good...

Intel's six-core "Coffee Lake" Core i5 trades blows with much pricier previous-generation Core i7 chips. But it's most impressive as an affordable high-end CPU for gamers when paired with a dedicated graphics card.
Pros:
  • Often bests previous-generation Core i7-7700K flagship CPU on multi-core tests
  • Best-in-class gaming performance
  • when paired with a dedicated graphics card
Cons:
  • Not unlocked for overclocking (though i5 K-version does exist
  • Requires a new motherboard
  • despite Z370 chipset offering no substantive new features
