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

Was upgrading from i9-9900KF and what an improvement!

Been using Ryzen for the last 3 years, I upgraded from Ryzen 7 3700X. This is such a great cpu that could easily last the next 5 years.

Excelente

I like it.

This processor is great for pc users who are looking to get great performance without breaking the bank on an i9. This processor is great for gaming and general use. highly recommend.

This thing is a monster. Runs a little hot, but with the proper cooling this beast can be pushed to its limits. Worth money and watch for sales.

So, this is a very fast CPU. I was going to go with an i9 but decided to go with the i7 because it was cheaper, and the new CPUs were coming out soon anyways. I was able to overclock it to 5 Ghz for all cores. The only drawback, which everyone who is technical know, these CPUs run super-hot. My temps were around 80 to 90 degrees Celsius. They run pretty fast without an overclock, so I dont think its worth the trouble. An undervolt would probably be best, but I have to say this CPU is the best Ive owned in a long time.

Games are gpu limited by my 3080 strix which says a lot.

Does great while gaming and shreds when it comes to rendering. With my 9400f it would take several minutes to render videos that I have edited whereas this takes no longer than 30 seconds to a minute. Love it.

It was fairly easy to install components and performs miracles
