Intel Core i9-12900KF Desktop Processor 16 (8P+8E) Cores up to 5.2 GHz Unlocked  LGA1700 600 Series Chipset 125W

It’s blazing fast. Buy the right motherboard with DDR 5 ram.

my previous system (which I also loved) contains a Ryzen 9 5950x, this one smokes it. Thats just the way it runs, I dont run any benchmarks or tests other than the occasional video test. but this one just seems to do everything faster (as it should). However, to be fair, two years later and just about everything that could be upgrade from the 5950 system got upgraded.

You get what you pay for...... If you want the fastest chip on the market - this is the chip for you. But it is just as expensive. Also, get a big cooler as this thing gets hot under a load.

FAST CPU, Great Value for the Power!!!

I built a new computer for photography work and it is amazingly snappy and quick. This chip on an Asus Strix Z690-e motherboard, Asus TUF 3090TI, 64GB DDR5 6400 memory, Samsung 980 pro, NZXT Kraken Z73 all work famously together to keep the system fast and cool.

Fast... No issues.

Latest gen, as fast as they come, and a good price to boot.

i was a devoted AMD fan, until the X570 Ace started bothering me with the dreaded USB issue, after trying serval fixes, including Bios updates that came promising to fix the issue, also am a system builder since 2005, and as my part time business I build high end systems, and seeing how many stability issues AMD has from time to time I wanted to just give Intel a chance, and am glad i did, this is now in my main system, along with my trusty FTW3 3080, had to upgrade my motherboard and went with a Z690 Aero D, DDR5, am really happy with it, saw a noticeable improvement over the AMD with DDR5, at 1080p 1440p and 4k, but mainly I saw a great improvement in VR, i have to bring up that this isnt an advisable upgrade if you are running anything new gen, like AMD 5k or Intel 10th or 11th, as the differences will be negligible, but if you are in the market for the best right now, nothing that AMD offers at the moment competes as far as single core, or multi core for the most part, and ironically this time intel offers better value, good times indeed.

Great Product

Muy bueno. Satisfecho!
