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

Tutto perfetto

I installed this in a GIGABYTE B660 Gaming X AX DDR4 since Im not overclocking and the board has all the features I wanted at a good price. Its paired with 16 GB DDR4 3200 CL14 RAM and a Phanteks 240 MP AIO liquid cooler. CPU temp never rose above 55 degrees during a 60 minute 100% CPU usage stress test with the stock Phantek fans. With Noctua NF-A12x25 PWM fans, temp is in the high 40s during the same stress test.

FINALLY. Intel has got back to being a contender. I had not updated my computer since Kaby Lake... and I was a bit disappointed to see how thrashed Intel was getting by AMD.

First time building a PC. This processor was easy to install and has been working flawlessly.

Bought this as part of a new gaming computer build. Very happy with my purchase, runs everything well and performance is great.

Amazing 10 core i5 CPU at a great price. Handily beats more expensive ryzen 7 5800X at both single and multi threaded workloads. For gaming it provides better FPS than every Ryzen CPU in the market including the $800 Ryzen 9 5950X. Runs cool specially for gaming. Similar or better perf/Watt and much better perf/dollar compared to 5800X. Very low idle power draw due to efficiency cores. Has good overclocking headroom. KitGuru did an amazing review of the K version of this chip which should be applicable to this KF version as well.

Bueno me gusto

Works well with RTX30XX cards. Overall excellent performance.

Have one in my build for over a week and it works great, does not overheat with most FPS games i play and is powerful enough.

I have been building desktop computers for the past 22 years, and this is the first processor I have had such horrible luck getting to work. I have tried this in 3 motherboards, swapped RAM, video cards, power supplies, monitors, and HDMI cables. I have even returned and replaced the CPU. Nothing has gotten me to a POST screen, much less allowed me to access the UEFI/BIOS, until I borrowed a GT 1030, which is UEFI and Secure Boot compliant. Socket 1700 motherboards are shipping with CSM disabled and Secure Boot enabled. Unless your video card is compliant, you will not see a POST screen or a UEFI/BIOS menu.
