so today I'll be unboxing in a core i7 this is an LG 8 1366 core i7 so it's the old core i7 with three channels for memory and with hyper-threading ok so it is an i7 975 this is an extreme edition processor I'm just gonna have a look ok so you got a hyper threading turbo boost blah blah blah 3-year warranty all that good stuff you got your standard fare here so let's break the seal on this baby Oh first of all you've got a little window here where you can actually see the CPU mine seems to be dislodged a little bit in there but well we'll get it open and find out why exactly that is so we're breaking the factory seal here oh that's a pretty good sticker there we go ok so let's open this up and find out exactly what we get with the Intel Core i7 Extreme Edition so first of all we get a plastic clamshell oh no here we go there is a manual so here's your manual this includes your installation instructions your three year limited warranty information as well as an Intel Inside logo label on the back panel so here's all your installation instructions all that good stuff all your warranty info and there is your core i7 extreme sticker that you can put on your case because yeah that's an expensive sticker and you're gonna want to show it off next thing it is the core i7 Xtreme itself so this is a nine seven five so that means it is a d0 stepping processor all of the nine seven 5s are you can see that on the bottom of the chip itself you've got 1366 pads that make contact with the pins on your x58 motherboard because x58 is the only chips that that supports these extreme edition chips at this time and then we also have a core r7 xtreme 1366 CPU heatsink so it's a little bit different from the standard one in that instead of being just an aluminum flower heatsink it's actually an aluminum and copper one it has a blue LED fan on the top it's a four pin PWM fan header and then you've got two different speed settings so you can either set it high or too low depending on how much noise and how much cooling you want to get out of it that said if you're buying an extreme edition processor you should probably be buying an aftermarket cooler so you can get the most out of it anyway because the best thing about an extreme edition is the unlocked multiplier which makes for better easier overclocking thank you for checking out my video blog unboxing the core i7 extreme 975
