Rockstar is the only way I can describe how this CPU has been since I bought it. It was used for everything from photo editing to gaming. It has never let me down, I moved to this from an Intel 9940X HEDT system to this. I was a little worried about not have as many memory channels moving to a mainstream setup but this thing never let me down. I have replaced this with an X3D CPU and do not have a use for this.
