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

Oh, Intel Core i5-13600K, thou art a marvel of technology,

To think that an i5 nowadays has 14 cores/20 threads is just crazy. This CPU is very capable and handles anything I throw at it with ease. Does the average user really need even an i7 or i9 at this point?

No bottleneck here! i5 13600K is beast! Intel definitely made one hell of a gaming CPU, that performs better than 5800x3d and it’s cheaper.

This CPU runs real fast when paired with good RAM. Im hitting 25,500 in cinebench r23 multi core workload. I manually overclocked it to 5.3ghz p-core, 4.6ghz e-core. It definitely produces a lot of heat, so make sure to get a big AIO or high end air cooler. You do not want to cheap out on a cooling solution or else youll be leaving performance on the table.

This chip is great for both gaming and content creation. The CPU and platform are both affordable. Best cheap since the legendary 2500K.

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.

The i5 -13600K provides the best performance in its price range.

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

Whatever it is you want to acheive, 13th Gen Intel can do it.

Purchase for my sons gaming pc he loves it.
