00:00:00.560 --> 00:00:08.920
so today I'll be doing a quick unboxing and this is going to be pretty quick because I already did the core I3 540

00:00:06.640 --> 00:00:15.519
but this is the core I3 530 so this one runs at 2.93 GHz it has hyperthreading

00:00:13.200 --> 00:00:20.840
but no turbo boost functionality much like the other core I3 processors that

00:00:17.600 --> 00:00:22.960
are available or processor the 540 now

00:00:20.840 --> 00:00:27.480
the core I3 processors what is so unique about them as I did mention in the other

00:00:24.800 --> 00:00:32.119
unboxing is that they do include an onboard Graphics chip so if you use this

00:00:30.039 --> 00:00:36.640
in conjunction with an h55 motherboard or h57 when those are finally available

00:00:35.000 --> 00:00:40.399
you will be able to take advantage of the onboard Graphics including HDMI out

00:00:38.840 --> 00:00:43.760
DVI out some of them even have DisplayPort out which is kind of cool so the

00:00:42.200 --> 00:00:47.079
first thing you'll find in the box is your core I3 processor installation

00:00:45.760 --> 00:00:52.160
instructions your threeyear warranty information as well as your uh oh that's

00:00:50.480 --> 00:00:57.480
actually like stickered shut for some reason as well as your Intel core I3

00:00:54.719 --> 00:01:01.879
case sticker very cool and then the next thing you will find is nothing else in

00:00:59.600 --> 00:01:06.240
the Box this plastic clam shell which includes your CPU which we'll have a

00:01:03.960 --> 00:01:11.880
look at in just a moment as well as an incredibly weak looking CPU Cooler I

00:01:08.600 --> 00:01:14.360
mean it really does speak for one thing

00:01:11.880 --> 00:01:17.840
to how little heat output that you see from the core I3 processors but if you

00:01:16.000 --> 00:01:21.640
look that like it it's not much thicker than my finger is wide actually here if

00:01:20.240 --> 00:01:24.759
I hold that at the front there you can get a better perspective on it so

00:01:23.400 --> 00:01:28.000
there's not a whole lot of metal involved there's no copper core on this

00:01:26.479 --> 00:01:31.280
cooler it does come with pre-applied thermal compound so if you are just

00:01:30.159 --> 00:01:37.000
buying the chip and you're just going to use the stock cooler you just plunk that right on this will spread itself out

00:01:34.799 --> 00:01:39.640
from the mounting pressure and I really do recommend especially if you're going

00:01:38.399 --> 00:01:43.640
to be actually okay if you're overclocking these chips buy a different

00:01:41.799 --> 00:01:46.640
cooler if you're not overclocking them you can use it with this one but it's

00:01:45.159 --> 00:01:51.520
not going to be the quietest it's not going to be the coolest etc etc so

00:01:49.079 --> 00:01:56.680
here's the core I3 530 itself this is the lowest end core I3 as of the time of

00:01:54.640 --> 00:02:00.799
doing this unboxing but there is a Pentium dual core variant available but

00:01:59.320 --> 00:02:05.600
I wouldn't really recommend that one because the core i3s really do offer a

00:02:02.960 --> 00:02:09.440
great price to Performance ratio this is an LGA 1156 chip so you can see there

00:02:07.960 --> 00:02:13.720
are 1,156 pads on the back of this processor

00:02:12.280 --> 00:02:19.640
which make contact with your motherboard it's supported by all of the h55 p55 and

00:02:17.480 --> 00:02:23.760
h57 Boards like I said when those are available on the market at this time and

00:02:22.280 --> 00:02:28.319
thank you for checking out my unboxing of the core I3 530
