Intel Core i9-12900K Desktop Processor 16 (8P+8E) Cores up to 5.2 GHz Unlocked LGA1700 600 Series Chipset 125W

Ive put together a few systems and run some retail 12900k chips so far and the 12900k is by far an amazingly fast CPU.

This is the second computer that I build myself. My previous one was a threadripper 2750x with 16 cores. I was very impressed with AMD at that time. Since then it appears that the roles of AMD and Intel have switched. Intel is now offering more value for the money than AMD for similar performance. I am ecstatic and cannot wait for what comes next. The 12900k is a fantastic processor at this price point.

very nice package

So just going to say that it went right onto the mother board. Like easist one I have ever placed. Just read which is up.

Love the box, but the performance in gaming is not as i expect!

Got the asus z690 eva edition running a 12th gen i9 with eva edition asus 3080 12 gig gpu and the ryujin 360 eva edition and the Asian horse matrix 360 up front and a cool masters 120 halo out back

Was shipped and delivered on time and as expected. Great processor.

Good ole Intel, simple install, reliable CPU

As other mentioned there was something off with these chips.

It didn’t work and returned it, haven’t been reimbursed after several weeks
