How we filter

Every feed has its own filter, tuned by hand for this one part. Before any change goes live, those filters are tested against thousands of real eBay listing titles. Every night, each feed is checked against every other deal page in its category, so a listing for a different part that slips in gets flagged and fixed instead of quietly shown.

Of the 248 listings we observed for this game in the last 30 days, we filtered out 229 of 248 (~92%) for quality reasons. The remaining 19 are what we'd actually surface.

  • 226 matched a bootleg / out-of-scope keyword
  • 2 priced above the curated ceiling
  • 1 caught by a junk-listing guard

What the feed excludes

An eBay search for Intel Core i5-10400 returns far more than the part itself: laptop chips, mining rigs, coolers, empty boxes and whole PCs all mention it in their titles. These are the 84 terms we filter out to keep this feed to the real thing. A listing whose title contains any of them never reaches the feed, the price table or an alert. Many look unrelated to Intel Core i5-10400 because they are: that's the noise.

Core i5-10400: buyer & reseller spec sheet

Exact SKU identity. The i5-10400 is a 6-core, 12-thread desktop processor for the LGA1200 socket, with integrated graphics. Its name nests inside the 10400F (no integrated graphics), and it sits next to the low-power 10400T and the laptop 10400H, which are different purchases. This feed excludes those by title, but confirm the exact model on the chip's heat spreader in the photos, not only in the title. Used listings often quote the S-spec SRH3C (some show SRH78), a handy cross-check.

Variants & value impact. Retail boxed copies, tray chips and loose pulled chips all show up. Loose chips usually come without a cooler or retail packaging, which is one source of the asking-price spread. Open box listings are counted with New on this page, so read the description to see whether the chip was ever installed.

Listing traps. Prebuilt desktops from the big OEMs list under this CPU's name as the headline part, and so do motherboards that merely support it. Both are excluded by title wording and the price ceiling. Some listings describe a 10400 "without integrated graphics", which describes the F model, not this one; check the chip in the photos. The i5-10400 is LGA1200, so confirm your motherboard's socket and BIOS support before buying.

Buying a used processor: what to check

These checks apply to every processor on our CPU pages. The item notes above cover what is specific to this model.

Used

  • Ask for a clear, close photo of the pins or contact pads, wherever the socket keeps them. Bent pins are the most common failure.
  • Confirm the model printed on the heat spreader matches the listing, and ask for a screenshot of the chip identified in the OS or BIOS.
  • Ask whether it was overclocked or delidded. Neither is a dealbreaker, but both should be disclosed.

Refurbished

  • Find out who tested it and what the return window is.

New

  • Check whether it is a boxed retail chip or a tray chip. Tray chips usually ship without a cooler and with a different warranty.
