Relatively easy to install but needs separate Graphics Card

I was surprised how easy it was to install both the CPU and the fan. I have some experience with computers and upgrading, but changing a CPU can give you better performance or give you no PC! I'm also impressed with how cool it runs. The heat-sink and fan do a great job. A word of advice, I was using a motherboard with built in graphics with my previous CPU and when I started the PC I got the initial beep, but nothing on the the monitor. P.O.S.T speakers on motherboards can be quite small. I found that when restated and listened closely to the P.O.S.T beeps, I found I needed to now add a separate graphics card.. Fortunately I had one. Windows 10 started and all my apps were working... but somewhat faster. :)
