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

So basically i got it installed on my msi-z690 with the artic freezer 280 and did a clean windows install. I then let windows run all its updates and after the first reset the system would not open any programs or allow me to click IE to download drivers for my amd vega 64. luckly i had my laptop to usb the software safemoded the install and bingo everything so far is fast and amazing and im in intel heaven and my i7-7700k is in intel recycle bin. I cant believe how much cpu % is being used on this like in games the i7-7700k was about 79% but this i5 is at 28-33 % for wow/ffxiv/horzion dawn zero/gtav like im blown away. I also did not disable the e cores so have obs/yt and itunes up and at times a netflix show or anime i feel literally zero input lag with the core temp of 40ish so yes this is so much better then anything i have. Thanks intel. Also im not sure why its consider budget gaming cpu as this thing is outclassing high end cpus... just saying.

Muy buena compra la verdad, estaba un poco preocupado del calor que tenia este cpu pero la verdad no hay de que temer, el cpu no sobrepasa los 35° eso si, sin hacer overclock, el consumo si es importante, asegurarse de tener una buena fuente de poder, el rendimiento es lo esperado, nucleos e hilos rinden muy bien por el valor.

Tutto perfetto

FINALLY. Intel has got back to being a contender. I had not updated my computer since Kaby Lake... and I was a bit disappointed to see how thrashed Intel was getting by AMD.

Good for the price, love it.

It shipped fast within 10 days But when i opened the package i found the box damaged and the CPU have a signs of usage

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 I recommend for those who would like to upgrade outdated PC!

Bought this as part of a new gaming computer build. Very happy with my purchase, runs everything well and performance is great.

This processor is amazing in that for significantly less price than previous years you can have the same processing power. I upgraded a 6 year old processor -- the last upgrade to basically fully replacing my pc-- with no issues, and easily was able to recognize the Windows code, and had no issues swapping. Overall, the Processor preforms great, has no issues, and is able to effectively handle my needs in photo editing, video editing, and gaming.

Why does Amazon keep wanting me to review things like this?
