Intel Core i5-12400 Desktop Processor 18M Cache, up to 4.40 GHz

Love it! I ran a passmark performance test and was clocking in at 99%

Good temperatures, i was surprised by stock thermal paste, good performance and quiet

dont hesitate one second before replacing with a vertical cooler. A 120 mm model, selling for $39, was easier to install, lowered idle temps from 50 to 25 deg C, and is silent. What more can be said?

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.)

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.

Assisted in solving the problems I had.

Tested Crusader Kings 3 for 50 years at max speed, not a stutter.

todo exelente muy buena compra todo ok... un poco lento el envio pero de la transportadora de mi pais por parte de amazon todo excelente

excelente articulo, se demoro 2 semanas en llegar pero funciona bien

I wasnt expecting much out of this CPU but it runs 3D CAD software better than my old i7-6700k and completely blows it out of the water with rendering and tool path generation. For the price its dang near perfect. Its about 20% slower at generating tool paths than an i5-12600k but way faster than the previous generation CPUs. Its definitely a jump forward from the i5-11400 and about equivalent of an i5-11600k or a 10th gen i7
