  • Tried, True and Tested
This was a terrific processor in 2021 and remains a strong processor in 2026. Runs pretty much any game without issue. 6 performance core gaming at a reasonable price. Perhaps the best selling point is that this works with both DDR4 or DDR5. A 12600K (or KF) with 32gb of ram is a great way to ride the next year or so out until RAM prices stabilize. The 12600KF that was purchased can undervolt by .04mv without any issue; this seems to fall in line with the .03 to .05 average for very cool performance. The 12000 series is still a terrific line and was not impacted by the 13 and 14 series power issues. Overall, for under 200 dollars, this is a great processor for 2k for 2026, especially when paired with a upper mid range or lower high end GPU. ... show more

  • It’s an amazing CPU!!!
What can I say, you know what a cpu is if your here and this will always meet it expectations, for the performance to price its a great cpu, it functions like it should, it’s not the high end xx900 so the power consumption is low not as low as an i3 but it’s not an i3 so that makes since, it takes the lga retention bracket so it’s easy to install but it I’d recommend a lga 1700 bracket screw down style, and over all being less than 200 for 6 processing cores and 4 efficiency cores it’s great value for your money. ... show more
