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

Runs cool and runs all my games well. -1 star for the packaging only one side of it was padded

Intel always a good value. This CPU didnt disappoint.

The 12700k easily crushes anything I throw at it, was debating between this and the 5800X but this was cheaper at the time and performs better.

Muy bueno

7 years ago in March 2016 I built my first PC and decided to get the flagship I7-6700K at the time. Deemed to be future proof for 5+ years, which was in fact was true.

Performance is perfect for gaming

Very good

Sold my i9-9900k after using it for a few years and back in Sept. went with Ryzen 9 5900X and MSI B550 Unify X great combo but under water my temps were a bit too high for my standards even with pbo /negative offset settings I wasn’t happy with the temps. This Alder Lake CPU is running at 22c on Idle and 52c to 56 under full load “Gaming at 1440p under an EK D5 pump reservoir . All I can say this thing is faster than my i9-9900K and faster and cooler than my previous AMD Ryzen builds .

20%+ faster than 8700k clock for clock.

Good!!
