Probably the best performing CPU by the cost. It works really well with GTX1660ti in my build. I paid $120 during the BF.

Is it guaranteed to OC to 4.1? Or is it YMMV? What additional cooling do I need to pay? Is it stable when OCing.

Stop spreading this FUD. AMD CPUs do not have driver or BIOS issues. Their latest line of discrete GPUs have had some driver problems but that’s an entirely separate realm.

Like the other guy said, you will need a new motherboard.
But it would be a noticable upgrade, the 6600k being a quad core and the 9400f being a hexacore.

You are right, I linked the wrong review. This is what I meant to link; it's the original review and shows how the CPU stacks up against the 9400F a bit more clearly.
