Nice for the price but in terms of the graph I have a 2.3 GHz SandyBridge more powerful just because it is "K" so that çi 4000alors HD is HD 2500 and I can not do without graphics card for gaming, but seeing the prices 3450K I prefer to keep this one I have not had much to put but strength to say for a part 40 of the more it can pass you end up needing 200 more. So graphic side, blah. Noise side I will have to invest in a noctua 50 because that fan starts to take my head from time to time but it will at other times it's more than painful especially if you want to watch a movie in the quiet .
Clearly allow at least 50 more to purchase if you enjoy the silence, and know that now noctua who were compatible LGA announced in early 1156 are now also for 1155.
