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

So basically i got it installed on my msi-z690 with the artic freezer 280 and did a clean windows install. I then let windows run all its updates and after the first reset the system would not open any programs or allow me to click IE to download drivers for my amd vega 64. luckly i had my laptop to usb the software safemoded the install and bingo everything so far is fast and amazing and im in intel heaven and my i7-7700k is in intel recycle bin. I cant believe how much cpu % is being used on this like in games the i7-7700k was about 79% but this i5 is at 28-33 % for wow/ffxiv/horzion dawn zero/gtav like im blown away. I also did not disable the e cores so have obs/yt and itunes up and at times a netflix show or anime i feel literally zero input lag with the core temp of 40ish so yes this is so much better then anything i have. Thanks intel. Also im not sure why its consider budget gaming cpu as this thing is outclassing high end cpus... just saying.

Excelente procesador a buen precio

This project is great for gaming, i like it, but you have to buy good power supply with good cooler to manage the CPU temperature.

Awesome cpu, best from all intels which I had (2700,3750,6700,7700,8700,9900,10700,10850) and with price 200$ no competitors.

Got this on sale at 220 and man, is it an upgrade from a ryzen 5 3600.

Great gaming cpu

Like this CPU

Amazing product throughly enjoyed building my first ever PC with it; Im expecting it to stay relevant for a while for gaming.

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!

No country for amd.
