Intel Core i5-13600K Desktop Processor 14 cores (6 P-cores + 8 E-cores) 24M Cache, up to 5.1 GHz

I am using this in my first PC build and it was pretty easy to install and seems like a really good value for the price-point.

What a beast This processor is.. it runs hot!

Went from i7 7700 to i5 12400f to i5 13600k. This processor is going to be in my machine for the next couple years. Probably gonna skip 14th Gen unless it’s mind blowingly better.

Pairs VERY well with the 3080. No stuttering, fast speeds!

its super fast, runs cool with a D15

This processor is blazing fast! The only con I can think of is the temps with factory motherboard settings. Im sure the issue is the power settings from the motherboard

Going from an old 4790K to this thing is like going from a biplane to the Concorde jet! This processor will crush any game out there. My main game is Flight simulator and the price to performance boost is outstanding. My old 1080SC is now the bottleneck in my system but both of them together makes even flying a helicopter in downtown New York, on multi-player, on high-end settings smooth as butter and the processor just sits at 55-60c! Amazing! The final piece of my new build was 32gb of corsair vengeance and I couldnt be happier unless I won the lotto.

I am using it for a SFF build so not really the target market so if you are on the same boat then be sure to make time to tweak it.

Upgraded from an i7 8700k and can say I am very happy with my upgrade. I got a noticeable jump in average fps, but the real improvement that can be felt while gaming was the increase in 1% low frame rates.

Upgrade my wife PC from an i5-8900k to help with WoW (didnt make a difference)
