Intel Core i5-2500K 3.3 GHz LGA 1155 Processor

This Intel Core i5-2500K desktop processor operates at 3.3 GHz on the LGA 1155 socket. It is a used component tested under load and visually inspected before removal from its original machine. The CPU suits builders maintaining or repairing legacy LGA 1155 systems. Buyers needing a current-generation platform or integrated modern instruction sets should select a different processor.

Installation and common issues

The processor drops into a compatible LGA 1155 motherboard socket using the standard retention lever. Apply fresh thermal paste and ensure the cooler mounts securely to prevent overheating. Bent socket pins on the motherboard are the most frequent cause of post-installation failures. Verify the motherboard BIOS supports this specific processor revision before beginning the installation.
