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

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

Got this on sale at 220 and man, is it an upgrade from a ryzen 5 3600.

Tutto perfetto

Great cpu for money. Extremely fast all around

You can usually find this processor for around $200 and it matches the performance of a Ryzen 7600x. Great price to performance.

Runs Msfs 2020 without any problems. Settings are on High with some on ultra. Mines water cooled so the temps are in the mid to upper 50s.

Muy buena compra la verdad, estaba un poco preocupado del calor que tenia este cpu pero la verdad no hay de que temer, el cpu no sobrepasa los 35° eso si, sin hacer overclock, el consumo si es importante, asegurarse de tener una buena fuente de poder, el rendimiento es lo esperado, nucleos e hilos rinden muy bien por el valor.

At this price point you will get a massive value , and this is the first intel processor that came with the unprecedented new performance hybrid architecture, processors offer a unique combination of Performance and Efficient-cores , which is a pretty good deal for this price!

The i5-12600K (K signifying that this is the desktop version) features a more generous turbo power bounds in addition to its desktop TDP, unlocked for overclocking, and included a single Intel sticker. This CPU is renowned among tech reviewers for its value while compromising only minimally in real world usage scenarios. If the i5 moniker is the “mainstream” product suitable for most users, the chip does not disappoint.

When I saw this during the Prime Day deal, I thought it was something I had to buy on general principle, which I did. Thus far, the chip is fast, runs Win 11 well and runs all the games Ive tried on it easily. Also, Intel has some neat utilities where, if one were inclined, may tinker with the performance.
