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

I am using this in my streaming rig and it is a huge upgrade compared to the old 10400f. Overclocking is so easy and I have this at 5.1 all core and could possibly get to 5.2 all core. Dont cheap out on the cooler cuz this thing will run hot during gaming. Got it on sale for under $200 and couldnt pass it up.

This thing is a monster. I have built many with 12900k and this i5 is a 16 thread monster, benchmark scores prove it to be as fast as my best 11900k i9, faster than my best 9900k i9 and maybe i got a lucky bin but i hit an SP of 75 overall 84 alone on P-cores! Thats higher than the average 12900k and it shows as it rocks 5.4ghz all day all p-core at 1.29v! Amazing CPU!

Super Leistung

This cpu is perfect and all around the best in its price range to be release in past couple of years. It works well in zbrush, unreal engine, blender, and is great for gaming. I literally have no complaints.

Es una bestia para múltiples tareas, recomendado

This was my choice of processor for my build, and I dont regret the choice. I decided to forgo the usual 12400kf in favor of this and wasnt disappointed. There havent been any issues, and it stays nice and cool.

I installed this in a GIGABYTE B660 Gaming X AX DDR4 since Im not overclocking and the board has all the features I wanted at a good price. Its paired with 16 GB DDR4 3200 CL14 RAM and a Phanteks 240 MP AIO liquid cooler. CPU temp never rose above 55 degrees during a 60 minute 100% CPU usage stress test with the stock Phantek fans. With Noctua NF-A12x25 PWM fans, temp is in the high 40s during the same stress test.

Poop

Works flawlessly. I havent done any overclocking on it(yet). It was the latest generation Intel CPUs. It was my first time buying a KF series. K is the overclockable version and F is the version with no integrated GPU. Ive owned K series numerous times. Ive never had an Intel CPU fail on me.

Good for the price, love it.
