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

Upgraded from an i5-7500 and a B8 gigabyte mobo. I was torn between a 13 gen i5 and this, and Im happy I chose this! First off, the box came damaged. The cpu was fine though. I paired this with a MSI z690 Tomahawk and a Thermalright peerless 120 se. The cooler keeps this guy at around 80*F, while gaming. As for the CPU, its a beast. I havent even tapped into what it can handle. I bought this when it went on sale for $264. Just for kicks, I had like 25 chrome tabs, afterburner, discord, a few random programs and Hogwarts Legacy all open and the CPU didnt get past 100*F nor did the CPU load go beyond 40%. The multitasking is wild. The thread count is crazy. Bottom line. This CPU is an awesome purchase and you wont be disappointed.

Idles in the 20s. Does require a beefy cooler, Im using a Noctua D15S. I did have a U14S on it idling in the low 30s, but the fan was revved up by default to a level I didnt enjoy. Make sure you need this much power. If youre just gaming get a 12400 instead. This processor trades blows with the amd 5900x. Performance and stability are excellent. I have five nvme m.2 drives on it right now (four on motherboard and another in a card). Everything is lightning fast. Be aware the drivers will NOT work with the older versions of Win10, and you will need to make a newer version of Win10 from microsofts own site. Aside from that minor inconvenience, everything works well.

Paired with a Noctua D15 and the Elite AX Z690, this thing is insane. Massive step up from my i7 6700k.

Definitely be sure to have adequate cooling on this beast - even with a moderate overclock youre quickly drawing a ton of power and making a ton of heat! Great value for money if you need the horsepower for CAD, photo/video work and gaming.

Good!!

Muy bien

Intel obviously isnt a slouch when it comes to processors. However, this one really hits the sweet spot between performance and price. Well see what happens when AMD releases the Ryzen 7000 series later this year, but if you dont want to wait, generally prefer Intel, and dont want to spring for an i9, this processor will absolutely take what you can throw at it.

La boîte est brisée le cpu était facile à déplacer dans la boîte un produit probablement déjà retourné.

No issues & strong CPU!

Ne chauffe pas beaucoup, ne dépasse pas 60°c sous OCCT à pleine Charge, très stable sur une MSI Z690,
