I advise everyone to NOT get i7 4980HQ, as impressive as this CPU looks with it is monstrous L4 Cache it is not worth the risk, it will either die on it's own or you will kill it with an excessive mounting pressure as it has a higher profile than stock rPGA946b CPUs. 

 

 

r u sure is higher? bcs the 4980hq itself is 1.65mm + the PGA package, n a native pga CPU is 4.7mm, when its higher maybe using washers will help?

n when i find a 2x8GB kit of 2133 mem, i will give the 4980HQ a try, when it only last a year, its ok, so it will cost around 5 bucks/month, less then every streaming abo 😄
