Intel Core i5-11400 4.4GHz 6 Cores 12 Threads LGA 1200 CPU OEM Tray Version, $229 Delivered + Surcharge @ Shopping Express

180

I've been looking for a deal on an 11thGen Core i5, and this has got to be it.

Sure it doesn't have a HSF, you'll need one
Sure 12th Gen CPU's and x590 mobo's are already trickling in
Sure you don't need Gen4 Pcie support, may as well slap that mechanical drive back in eh!

But if you're like me and have made the 'update jump' because of a some crazy OZB motherboard deal that has locked you into 11th Gen CPUs, then this makes sense. Take advantage while you can…

1% surcharge on select payment methods.

    11th gen does support pcie gen4…

    • That was more of a dig at the i3 10thGen cpu owners with x550 mobo's lol.

      • The naming for intel boards goes H510, B560 and Z590 for 11th gen for entry level, midrange and high end respectively. First number goes up/down with each generation (i.e 12th gen has Z690, 10th gen has Z490 etc). AMD follows a similar convention, with A520, B550 and X570 representing the 3 tiers I listed earlier, and also having the first number go up/down with each generation (B450 was released in the Zen+ Era, B550 being from the Zen 2 era etc)

        • my bad I meant b560 using x for any revision back in the days of B/H/Q/Z (but that is defunct so it seems). Hopefully I'm set straight after your clarification. Master2 has a core i3 10105F with a b560m as he's waiting to snap up both CPU/GPU at better prices later next year or even used as some might jump ship to 12thGen.

        • Slot a H570 in there just after the B560

    Sure 12th Gen CPU's and x590 mobo's are already trickling in

    Don't forget the 12400 and B660 motherboards, one of the biggest performance jumps in a while.

    • yeah, i bought 11 th gen 3 mths ago due to MB deal ….. i know i will regret once the 12th gen cpus and MB start to displace 11th gen stock ….

      • Yeah I hear ya. I've had enough of my i7 3770, and I'm long overdue. I've OZB'd the hell out of it this month, and it was a Motherboard deal that kicked it all off. I was looking at an Aorus B560m Pro AX a day earlier for $185, Master2 has the non wifi version.

        Gigabyte Z590 Aorus Master for $199 got me earlier this month.
        then
        $89 - Lian Li 011 Dynamic Mini deal (bought a sfx psu whilst at it $139)
        then
        $114 - 16Gb 3600 ram deal (rgb <sigh>)
        then
        $99 - 16Gb 3600 ram deal (another rgb)
        then
        $97 - 500Gb Aorus M.2 Gen4 Nvme drive (big copper hs)
        then
        $229 - i5 11400 cpu

        thinking about using the Cryorg M9i from the old PC in this one, and moving over 2x2.5" ssd's, 2x3.5" hdd's. Will see how it goes. I was tossing up between the 11500 but this was so cheap considering it's pricing history, just trying to not let the budget blow out of proportion. I started on a bargain and want to finish on one.

        If I feel like I want more, then I'll gift Master2 this cpu (he's using an i3 10105f) and I'll go bigger.

          I also have a similar story.

          Got a z590 gaming X from ebay for $126 and get the 11400 box edition for $269. Other parts are existing.

          Although 12th gen has a huge leap in performance, the total price to build the whole machine is too high.

        • where's ur GPU? where? where?

          • @[Deactivated]: Master2 has it, don't worry I'll get another, but I'll be damned if I'm paying grossly over inflated $$$ in this environment. I can hold out as long as I need to, I'm in no rush. It won't happen overnight, but it will happen.

            In the meantime I can enjoy the PC as it is.

  • Whats difference between OEM Tray version and normal version?

      Boxed processors are those you see on Amazon and Newegg. They come in nice-looking packaging meant for the direct consumer. These processors typically more expensive than their tray processor counterparts. On the other hand, some boxed processors include their own cooling fan. You can see this with most of AMD’s Ryzen series and some Intel Core series.

      Tray processors are those sold in large volumes, typically to PC manufacturers (think ASUS, Dell, HP…).
      They come in trays much as eggs do in an egg carton. These companies buy processors in bulk at wholesale as it makes little business sense for them to purchase boxed processors. They take more space in shipping and would hinder those assembling computers.Sometimes manufacturers make these available to purchase to other businesses and consumers. Passing the savings on, but with an important caveat: warranty.

      Warranty on Shopping Express says it's 12mths,

      • ACL overrides manufacturer warranty

    • No Box and no sticker.

    • No heat sink and fan provided, but getting a $30 after market option will be a lot, lot better anyway!

  • No box, no HSF

    • Is HSF = Heat Sink Fan?

  • Where are Intel CPUs made these days?

    i5-11500 for $280 delivered is a good deal

    • yep 11500 has different gpu to 11400 also if people are using for office productivity and aren’t going to add a graphics card.

  • Is there any gaining in getting the 11400F over this 11400? My new pc build will be running a separate GPU. Thanks

    • It's so tiny it's hardly discernible IMO. The 11400f has a small (1%) performance if and where there is a benefit, no matter how small it's a gain nonetheless.

      It lacks igpu so if you ever have a time where your gfx card fails/removed for what ever reason, then you're out of luck using it. I'd like to still have that feature, and in my situation, I've lent my gfx card to my son to use till gfx cards prices drop, it's allowed me to still use my PC for everything else (currently using a i7 3770 with the igpu). This doesn't happen all the time, but it is currently.

      Source

      edit; I'm not even sure there's a secondary gain of lower temp by not having the igpu, and if that can lead to longer boost clocking.

    I have got an 11400, and its amazing. Doesn't hold back my 6800XT in Warzone. its a ripper. Pound for Pound keeps up with 5600x which retails for almost $200 more….about $450. The only downside to buying this chip now, is that you might get incredible deal when 12400 drops and they try and clear them for $180 AUD or less

    • That's good to hear, if that does happen and a 11600k or 11700k is also on a historic low I'll give this 11400 to Master2 and get one of those. This build is looking up.

  • It arrived today, nice work S.E.
