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

My three cents:

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

I know there is faster but for the money someone please tell me which ones they are. Very impressed !

Great CPU so far. Only limiting this CPU at the moment is the early versions of Z690 motherboard software that might not be overclocking at optimal levels (using auto overclock). Make sure you have a good CPU cooler or a cooler designed for the LGA 1700. Currently the Gigabyte settings for overclocking (bios or windows app) is pushing the CPU above spec and will cause throttling. I am using a Corsair H150i Elite CAPELLIX 360mm.

This thing is a beast, I have not countered any issues whatsoever. Awesome upgrade!

Ich verstehe halt nicht warum ich einen kaputten CPU geschickt bekomme das ist halt einfach nur unnötig und zeitaufwendig

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

The last time I was this happy with an Intel CPU in terms of performance-per-dollar was the 4770K.

Came in perfect condition, snapped right into place, and worked on first boot. Havent had the need to push it to its limit so far, but even with a whole bunch of stuff running, it gives me absolutely no trouble, so Im sure itll be fine for a long while.

I think all of the modern chips are overpriced since the great shortage but I wanted a new pc and chose what would be best for my application. Runs great (if a little hotter than I was anticipating) and I havent had any problems yet.
