This is a good chip most PC is going to use a video card unless your going to use onboard it Turbo and it very cheap so it makes a nice upgrade.

Recently one of the neighborhood kids came to me with $900 he saved from summer jobs and asked if I could build him a gaming system. This is the CPU I chose for his build. Yes, an i7 would have been ideal, but keeping in mind this is a budget build I chose what I though was the best bang for the buck. The 6 cores combines with an RTX 2060 GPU should allow most games to be pushed to their limit. I've always purchased Intel CPUs because in the 30+ years I've been building computers I have literally only run across one bad Intel CPU. Can't same the same for the other big manufacturer, not even close.

Upgraded from a Pentium Gold 5400 and it's a noticeable difference in running multiple applications. The Pentium was adequate but when using more than web browsing you now need more cores to keep things running smoothly.

First time installing a cpu. After a few minutes i got it in. Performs great and runs relatively cool with the stock cooler. I love it.

The i5 9400F is a reliable good enough WFH and gaming option. I have it paired on a cheap b365m board forced to Max all core turbo 24/7 and 16gb of ram. It honestly even pushes a 2080Ti to within 10-20fps of a 9900k at 5.0ghz.
