Intel Core i5-12600KF Desktop Processor 10 (6P+4E) Cores up to 4.9 GHz Unlocked  LGA1700 600 Series Chipset 125W

PSA: do not buy if you want to overclock and you plan on using Intel XTU on windows 10! Intel has dropped support for XTU on windows 10 for the 12th and 13th gen models, which i did not know at the time of purchase. Regardless, you may not even need to overclock this processor, it handles games, video editing, and large processing workloads well! I have been enjoying Intels P/E core technology a lot, my background tasks running nominally, while my games and workloads execute smoothly. Amazing processor for its price, but its definitely not the fastest. You should buy this as an in-between when building a new computer or when upgrading chipsets, etc.

Works well with RTX30XX cards. Overall excellent performance.

Got this on sale at 220 and man, is it an upgrade from a ryzen 5 3600.

It will offer better value for gaming/every day PC compare to the 12700k especially since most games are GPU dependent. It works well for Windows 11, easy overclocking, and haven’t experiencing any bottlenecks with everyday pc apps.

Solid processor! Works as intended.
