Intel Core i7-12700K Desktop Processor 12 (8P+4E) Cores up to 5.0 GHz Unlocked  LGA1700 600 Series Chipset 125W

Fast smooth and runs cool with DeepCool AS500 PLUS at stock without any problem, very pleased with this processor.

I use this processor for gaming. Good performance and easy to install. Shipped and delivered fasted than expected. Thumbs up.

thank you

This CPU replaced a defective i5 I bought and I couldn’t be happier. It runs fast and pretty cool for my work load and moderate gaming. The price was a steal. If you plan on serious gaming make sure you have decent cooling.

I need a new PC mainly to process photos. I was considering AMD Ryzen 7 5800X when I read the benchmark for Intels 12th generation CPUs are better than the 5800X running Adobe software. But it has a bad reputation for hogging power. The attached screen shot shows that power consumption slightly exceed the TDP of 125W during Lightroom batch export. But to my surprise, once the export is finished, power consumption is very low, even less than my AMD 4800H based laptop. Background processing uses the more efficient E-cores.

I can’t believe how insanely fast this processor is. I paired this with a TUF Z690/noctua and couldn’t be happier!

I’ve never been and mad or intel fanboy. I’ve always gone for that’s the best bang for your buck… or what performs the best at a reasonable price. For the first time sense Ryzen I’m surprised to say intel is cheaper and light years ahead of its competitors with the 12700k.

I upgraded from an i7-4770 DDR3 and built a 12700k DDR5 PC and this thing flies. A mild overclock and xmp profile has programs opening instantaneously, and installs are super fast. No real workloads or gaming has been done yet, but I wanted the best, but didnt want to pay 12900k prices, and for gaming the I7 preforms only 1-2% slower according to most reviewers, so I will not be missing that tiny bit of performance.

Buen producto llegó a tiempo sellado en buen estado gracias Amazon

Sold my i9-9900k after using it for a few years and back in Sept. went with Ryzen 9 5900X and MSI B550 Unify X great combo but under water my temps were a bit too high for my standards even with pbo /negative offset settings I wasn’t happy with the temps. This Alder Lake CPU is running at 22c on Idle and 52c to 56 under full load “Gaming at 1440p under an EK D5 pump reservoir . All I can say this thing is faster than my i9-9900K and faster and cooler than my previous AMD Ryzen builds .
