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

I am not a power user… Games, some technical work and finances. This is the perfect cpu for most users.

I upgraded from an i7-4770 DDR3 and built a 12700k DDR5 PC and this thing flies. A mild overclock and xmp profile has programs opening instantaneously, and installs are super fast. No real workloads or gaming has been done yet, but I wanted the best, but didnt want to pay 12900k prices, and for gaming the I7 preforms only 1-2% slower according to most reviewers, so I will not be missing that tiny bit of performance.

Ridiculously easy to overclock and runs stable. AMD processors in the past, Ive had to fumble with the settings for a long time till I got it right. With this CPU, everything just worked and no additional configuration required. I paired this with the Asus TUF Gaming Z-690 Plus Wifi D4 motherboard and they pair nicely. I picked this board cause of the DDR4 support and it runs perfectly. Only complaint I have is that it uses a lot of power.

Fast smooth and runs cool with DeepCool AS500 PLUS at stock without any problem, very pleased with this processor.

Installed much easier than I thought it would, and it works like a charm. However, I thought i was a bit expensive..

Fast and nice. Good shopping experience for me.

Amazing upgrade from Gen 4

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

This CPU replaced a defective i5 I bought and I couldn’t be happier. It runs fast and pretty cool for my work load and moderate gaming. The price was a steal. If you plan on serious gaming make sure you have decent cooling.

Guter Prozessor, kostet aber auch sein Geld. Verursacht bei mir teilweise Spulenfiepen, ansonsten ein gutes Produkt.
