Intel Core i7-2600K

Pros
Outstanding media-processing capabilities. Good overall computing performance. Unlocked multiplier for simplified overclocking.
Cons
Onboard video lacks DirectX 11 support, won't replace what you can get with discrete cards. Requires new motherboard. Bundled CPU cooler discourages tinkering.
Bottom Line
Intel takes a giant step forward with the Core i7-2600K, one of its inaugural Sandy Bridge CPUs, in terms of both value and media processing. Its much-touted onboard graphics won't displace what you get with a discrete graphics card, but overall this is an impressive mainstream release.
