Intel Core i7-12700K Desktop Processor 12 (8P+4E) Cores up to 5.0 GHz Unlocked  LGA1700 600 Series Chipset 125W

I can’t believe how insanely fast this processor is. I paired this with a TUF Z690/noctua and couldn’t be happier!

No doubt, 12th gen Intel processors are a marvel of computing technology. Although there is a continuing tug of war between Intel and AMD in this regard. I personally chose Intel Core i7 (12700K) with inbuilt UHD graphics for my newly built desktop PC. For those, who dont want to use a separate and usually exorbitantly priced graphics cards, this processor is a very good alternative. It can handle most of the processing intensive rendering of Blender easily with its unlocked overclocking (obviously you have to use the supporting motherboard, i.e. presently available Z690 chipset motherboards). It can also smoothly handle almost all the tasks of Adobe Lightroom and Photoshop with no hiccups. Not to mention the support of 4K video with HDR if you are looking for some decent and the latest entertainment in your PC. I would suggest this 12th Gen i7 to those who want to use their PC for content creation purpose in the best possible way and also at the same time save some money (compared to 12th Gen i9, which would ideally be the best anyway, but costlier too). The price is still at a high level. Hopefully this comes down soon with the launch of Intels 13th Gen processors!

Gets the job done takes lots of stress..

新品のマザーボードにとりつけて起動したら、マザーボードのLEDのCPUのところに赤ランプが？

Al momento de comprarlo tenía duda sobre si me llegaría muy maltratado, ya que es importado de Amazon USA, pero venía en excelente estado, cumplieron con el tiempo de entrega y no tuve absolutamente ningún problema en el envío ni en la entrega, además de que está a un precio más bajo que el resto. Lo recomiendo ampliamente, sobre todo para las personas como yo que están armando su primer PC Gamer y de trabajo y buscan pieza por pieza.

This CPU has a lot going for it, wether your getting into 12th Gen for its impressive gaming performance or not overwhelmingly expensive prices, this cpu will definitely put the power you need into the system your building & with the right cooler you will never have to worry about this chip getting beyond 40-50c under load with its factory tune. By far one of best decisions i made when i build my friends first pc this year.

I need a new PC mainly to process photos. I was considering AMD Ryzen 7 5800X when I read the benchmark for Intels 12th generation CPUs are better than the 5800X running Adobe software. But it has a bad reputation for hogging power. The attached screen shot shows that power consumption slightly exceed the TDP of 125W during Lightroom batch export. But to my surprise, once the export is finished, power consumption is very low, even less than my AMD 4800H based laptop. Background processing uses the more efficient E-cores.

Great cpu performs well but runs hotter. I have a good aio and it runs about 5 to 10 Celcius hotter than 9700k.

The best value processor get it 340$

This CPU is fast! Its great. Just be careful when youre inserting it into the motherboard and you should be good to go. It runs at a decent temperature in my Fractal case with Arctic 280 AIO. No bottlenecking in my games paired with DDR5 and a 3080 12GB GPU.
