Intel Core i5-12600KF Desktop Processor 10 (6P+4E) Cores up to 4.9 GHz Unlocked  LGA1700 600 Series Chipset 125W

This is still an excellent choice of CPU for the money. You may be able to get a better chip for the same price with Ryzen but this is still an excellent choice if you are partial to Intel or have a motherboard that only accepts Intel chips.

Works flawlessly. I havent done any overclocking on it(yet). It was the latest generation Intel CPUs. It was my first time buying a KF series. K is the overclockable version and F is the version with no integrated GPU. Ive owned K series numerous times. Ive never had an Intel CPU fail on me.

I installed this in a GIGABYTE B660 Gaming X AX DDR4 since Im not overclocking and the board has all the features I wanted at a good price. Its paired with 16 GB DDR4 3200 CL14 RAM and a Phanteks 240 MP AIO liquid cooler. CPU temp never rose above 55 degrees during a 60 minute 100% CPU usage stress test with the stock Phantek fans. With Noctua NF-A12x25 PWM fans, temp is in the high 40s during the same stress test.

Just one of the best CPUs for this money if not the best.

This project is great for gaming, i like it, but you have to buy good power supply with good cooler to manage the CPU temperature.

At this price point you will get a massive value , and this is the first intel processor that came with the unprecedented new performance hybrid architecture, processors offer a unique combination of Performance and Efficient-cores , which is a pretty good deal for this price!

Solid processor! Works as intended.

The best price for this power performance in 10 cores! I recommend for those who would like to upgrade outdated PC!

Amazing 10 core i5 CPU at a great price. Handily beats more expensive ryzen 7 5800X at both single and multi threaded workloads. For gaming it provides better FPS than every Ryzen CPU in the market including the $800 Ryzen 9 5950X. Runs cool specially for gaming. Similar or better perf/Watt and much better perf/dollar compared to 5800X. Very low idle power draw due to efficiency cores. Has good overclocking headroom. KitGuru did an amazing review of the K version of this chip which should be applicable to this KF version as well.

Arrived as described. Powerful CPU for a reasonable price.
