Intel Core i7-13700K Desktop Processor 16 cores (8 P-cores + 8 E-cores) 30M Cache, up to 5.4 GHz

My latest build has the i7-13700k. This cpu is a beast! Every motherboard I have used with 13th gen CPUs needs the BIOS updated first before it will boot properly!

This is the best CPU in the world, period.

paired with 3070 and working great no problems so far. seeing a huge performance boost in gaming from rust to tarkov to dayz all games seem much smoother and the 1% lows feel and stutters feel non exsistant. also running with corsair vengance ddr5 ram @ 4800mhz as someone else mention being 13th gen cpu you may need to flash the bios of your mobo to get it to recognize it.

The CPU arrived in a well protected package, no damage. installation is easy, and once up it is fast and easy to configure. will be nice to include a manual or a USB for CPU setup.

Great chip! I had to return my Amazon product and buy it in store as the one that was shipped to me had been opened and I didn’t want to put a used chip in my new build. That said the return was easy and the chip is a beast. Just keep that in mind when ordering online… make sure to use a new chip as these are very sensitive.

This was a no brainer upgrade for me. The 13900k may be faster depending on what youre doing but this is a close second. No issues for me, and since the motherboard I used was able to take the cooler from my previous cpu (10850k) I was up and running right away. Temps are slightly warmer at times than the 10850k but definitely nothing to worry about. Quite pleased overall!

Upgrading from my core i7 7700 to this CPU. Coupled with Asus Z760-B motherboard. This is a great Intel CPU as usual.

Its a great cpu to pair with 3090 gets a bit hot wouldnt use a air cooler on this

If you are looking to get the best gaming experience with the decent price and not getting poor processing power, this is your option, you get the flagship power with lower price than competitor.

Intels 13th gen is a very strong contender and the i7 this time around is all the overkill I needed. While the i5 works great for gaming the extra cores in the i7 make it even better for game streaming or production workloads like video editing, It can be a little power hungry but uses that power to overclock extremely well, but thanks to the efficiency cores when you are sitting idle runs with very low power.
