Got it for the wife, just uses it for web browsing and emails lol. Its enough for her.

Purchased on 7/29. Received on 7/30. I opened the intel box and it only contained a used stock cooler, no cpu. Returned an hour and a half after receiving.

Have an issue with the mother board and the 5.0 PCIE slot but the chip worked fine on boot up. Have a 12 second boot time on a fresh install. Using Gigabyte fast boot

I upgraded from a i3 9100f to i5 12400, my cpu usage was nearly 100% in every game

You get more cores than an i3 based cpu. If you want to save a lot, you could go with a 12100f, but I think you get a lot of value with this cpu. You get the faster pcie lanes and more of them compared to the 10th and 11th gen cpus. And you can use a single fan low profile heatsink and fan with this and get around 75c temperatures during cpu stress tests. When the 13400 comes out though, this might not be worth it depending on the price it comes out with, but for now you get a great value and great performance.

Got this to help tide me over until GPU prices arent insane, while transitioning from an older laptop. It can handle most games at playable FPS, but that said even a proper 1030 is double this iGPUs power. (But also doubles the cost at MSRP, if you can find them for that rn even.)
