    What gaming should be like!
    This CPU is phenomenal, my main purchase was because the heat in my room due to the FX-9590(Yes, this processor made a noticeable difference by reducing the heat in my room). I previously had a FX-9590 which I bought in 2014. The FX-9590 treated me well. When I got a 980 TI, I always felt underwhelmed I feel like this GPU could do more but I just dealt with it. Until recently, I purchased this i5-6600k, I haven't overclocked it or anything yet but the performance is just noticeable from the AMD FX-9590. Games like Overwatch, I gained a solid 30FPS from my 9590, WoW gained a whooping 35FPS. The speed at which this CPU delivers is crazy good, and I couldn't be more satisfied with this process. I was between this and the i7 6700, but for gaming orientation the i5-6600k is killer and you need to overclock, but when I'm ready to Overclock I can just see this CPU being a boss. This CPU has no bottleneck for my 980 TI soon my GTX 1080!A word to all AMD CPU users, this processor is amazing and well worth it! Trust me, The Zen may have hope, but if you're upgrading now do it!
