Product ReviewsIntel Core i5-6500 3.2GHz Quad-Core (SR2BX) Processor

Great work and couldn't be happier

I was buying parts to build a machine with my son. We started with a motherboard and then the Intel Core i5-6500. We aren't huge gamers but of the games we both play and of the other needs of users in the home, this thing is a beast. I have never had an issue with any intel items. This lives up to my expectations.

The item came as expected and wouldn't hesitate to buy this again from the same retailer.Read full review...

It was good

Item so working great but the way it was shipped out I’m really disappointed that cost me 130 dollars and it was shipped with paper around m CPU noting that’s all that there was protecting it (paper)

Intel Skylake i5-6500 3.2GHz Quad-Core Processor with Heat Sink.

The Intel Skylake i5-6500 3.2GHz Quad-Core Processor with Heat Sink was the first processor I bought for my Aurora R5, Worked very well with No problems at all, Ran very cool and fan was peaceful. Moved this processor to a MSI B-250 Motherboard in a Dell XPS Studio case and it lives there now, Very nice item.
Worked well with my Oculus Rift V.R. Setup as well.
Very Happy and Satisfied.

Good CPU

CPU works perfectly so far. It was shipped somewhat poorly, and thermal paste on the pads of the underside on the CPU. I hope it wasn't used. In all, good CPU, and works fine.

Great CPU at a pretty good deal for me

It's my first time installing a cpu for a computer I built and have had no issues with it so far. This cpu plays all the games I have nicely with my setup (one game in particular GTA 5 runs smooth on my machine).Read full review...

Built my PC last night with i5-6500 CPU

Works like a champ. Worth it!!!
CPU seems scary to install at first but don't let it intimidate you. I did it first try and no bent pins!

Could have been packed better

Received package before deadline but CPU was wrapped in a paper towel for packing other than that Everything works great thanks!

Great CPU

Great piece of hardware, recommended to use an aftermarket cooler to get better temps.

Great CPU

A great quad core processor with the ability to turbo up to 3.6 gHz although it really does not need to.
