Esta genial buen procesador, de gama media, esta aun precio correcto, lo único malo que tiene es el disipador que se ve muy económico, no le he usado con el disipador de serie pero por que le he podido ver mantiene buenas temperaturas, aun así es lo único malo de este procesador obviamente este porcesador esta pensado para usarlo con una gráfica discreta, así que mantiene buenas temperaturas al no incluir una gráfica interna, aun así el uso de un disipador de 4 tubos está más que de sobra y da buenos resultados en cuanto a temperatura al igual que ayuda con la estética del pc.

Cercando un processore per un computer da budget sugli 800 euro, son finito per trovare questo processore, ed immediatamente deciso di costruirci intorno il computer. Sebbene venga presentato come un processore da soli 2.9GHz, può raggiungere i 4.1GHz, il tutto semplicemente modificando la velocità dal bios del computer. Sebbene arrivato provvisto di ventola di raffreddamento, inatteso in quanto non avevo letto tale cosa al riguardo e avendone presa un'altra ( https://www.amazon.it/gp/product/B01KVNCEIG/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o07_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 ), non contiene alcun tipo di pasta termica all'interno. La temperatura all'accensione del computer è sui 40-41 gradi, in linea nonostante il boost alla velocità, si mantiene al momento attuale al di sotto delle soglie di pericolo per una cpu, nonostante le alte temperature esterne.

Es una lastima, que habiendo estado por 120€ este procesador en poco tiempo todos los vendedores chiflaron hasta llegar a ponerlo a 180€ (160€ actualmente). En el caso de Amazon, simplemente no lo vende o lo vende muy puntualmente porque como tiene tropecientos i5 8400 que son mas caros .... pues no haria negocio. Este procesador es un i5 8400 sin grafica y fabricado desde febrero de 2019 (realmente si tiene grafica integrada, pero esta desactivada por ser defectuosa). Los i5 9400 en los que falla la grafica durante la fabricacion, la deshabilitan y los convierten en 9400f. Por un lado ... es una faena porque sabes que estas comprando un procesador con un defecto de fabricacion, por el otro, esta bien porque los que usamos graficas dedicadas pagamos menos por no tener la m*** de grafica de intel. El funcionamiento es correcto y en los test da un poco mas derendimiento que el 8400 porque al tener los recursos mas enfocados a los procesos y desactivados para la grafica ... pues tiene mas capacidad de funcionamiento. Este procesador funciona con chipset 3XX, es decir placas H3xx, Z3xx, ... personalmente he probado dos placas Z390 una de gigabyte y otra de ASUS y en los dos casos habia que actualizar la bios antes de poder usar este procesador porque no lo reconoce. La ultima que he probado y es la que tengo actualmente es la MSI Z370A-Pro. En este caso NO es necesario actualizar la bios para usar este procesador. De hecho, la caja trae una pegatina que dice: OPTIMIZADO PARA PROCESADORES DE 9ª GENERACION. Por lo tanto, yo recomiendo esa placa o tendreis que comprar un procesador de octava generacion, actualizar la bios, cambiar el procesador y devolver el de octaba generacion ... un lio ... Read more

This is probably the cheapest processor on the market that won't bottleneck your graphics card. I did some early testing with an RX 5700 to see if there was any sign of bottlenecks caused by the CPU. What I found is that I was getting the exact same performance as tech sites were with the RX 5700 where they were using the i9-9900k processors. Its possible that perhaps a RTX 2080 might be too much for it, but even that I doubt and if it were, the bottleneck would probably be minimal. I'm seeing 100% GPU bound in games like Gears 5/Gears 4 (where that rating is available). I now have my RX 5700 overclocked with custom power tables to 2024mhz. I still see 100% GPU bound ratings so the CPU is definitely strong enough for the RX 5700 XT as well. I did put a larger CPU cooler and 120mm fan. From what I can tell the CPU runs nearly 100% of the time (in game) at the boost speed, which is 3.9ghz for all cores. The temperature with the cooler I have on it does not exceed 52C, I know the boost clocks will slowdown if the CPU gets too hot, so that was my reason for installing the better cooler, although I'm not sure it was entirely necessary. For less than $150, I'm not sure there is anything that currently beats this CPU provided you are using a discrete graphics card. I nearly bought an i3-9100f with the plan to upgrade the CPU later, but after doing the research determine the i5-9400f would be a better value and last me much longer before the need to upgrade, especially since this was a gaming build. At present, I don't believe there was any reason for a more expensive processor for gaming. Obviously if you are building at the top end, you would probably be going with a higher end processor anyway. I was trying to get bang for my buck and I think the i5-9400f and RX 5700 build (esp since I got the RX 5700 for $280) accomplished that. Read more

The 9400F has six cores (no Hyper-Threading), a boost clockspeed of up to 4.10 GHz and base clock of 2.9GHz (it should run at 3.9GHz on all cores, though), a TDP of 65W, and support for up to 128GB of memory. The 'F' means there's no integrated graphics support, so you absolutely need a dedicated GPU to get any kind of video output—just like with most of AMD's Ryzen processors. Pros : * Leading game performance. * Discounted price compared to vanilla Core i5-9400. * Flimsy bundled cooler is better than nothing. Cons : * Disabled graphics (GPU Card is mandatory). * Locked ratio multiplier. * Big price-to-performance disadvantage compared to AMD in threaded workloads.
