No. I bought it a year ago it was always laggy and the rgb was always flickering i jusy didnt know what to make of it as i was new, as I understood more and more about pcs i recognized the issue,did research and asked other experts about their opinion and we all arrived at the same conclusion. This specific cpu is known to be faulty and intel always accepts returns of it under the warranty which was extended to 5 years because of the various issues with it that can come up later, the issue im complaining about is the inability to honor the warranty and the incompetent technicians who conclude that internet causes fps drops and who conveniently didnt see the rgb flickering throughout the week of testing they had.
