Handles all tasks and all games spectacularly. Albeit a few generations old now, however, I believe after using it for a few months now I'm quite happy. Upgraded to this from a Ryzen 7 3700X and should last me at least 5+ years.

    • I bought this for smoother gaming
Size: Pack of 1
I picked this desktop since my old one kept freezing if I ran more than two things at once. Last weekend, I had Spotify and two games open — no issues. The fans get a little loud but honestly, my headphones cover it up. Happy I can edit videos and game without headaches now.

    • The processor also runs surprisingly cool, even under heavy load.
Size: Pack of 1
I recently got my hands on the Intel Core i9-12900K Desktop Processor, and I have to say, I am blown away by its performance. This processor is an absolute powerhouse, with 16 cores (8P+8E) and speeds of up to 5.2 GHz. It's also unlocked, which means I can push its limits even further if I want to. Installing the processor was easy enough, although I did have to make sure my motherboard was compatible with the LGA1700 socket and 600 series chipset. Once I had everything set up, I fired up my favorite games and applications to see how the processor would perform. The results were nothing short of impressive. The i9-12900K chewed through every task I threw at it with ease, from demanding video editing software to the latest AAA games. I was able to multitask without any lag or slowdowns, and my system felt incredibly responsive and snappy. The processor also runs surprisingly cool, even under heavy load. I did notice a slight increase in power consumption compared to my old processor, but it's a small price to pay for the sheer performance boost. Overall, I am extremely satisfied with the Intel Core i9-12900K Desktop Processor. If you're a power user or a gamer who demands the best performance, this processor is definitely worth considering. It's not cheap, but in my opinion, it's worth every penny for the sheer power and speed it delivers. ... show more

So far so good since it was affordable. It's also a 12 gen so no problems so far. I've been using it as my desktop and it has been fine.

    • Intel chip runs fast

Bought this for my own desktop upgrade, mainly for streaming some shows after work. Launching Netflix right after logging in was super quick. Glad it saves me those extra minutes when I just want to zone out.

    • Strong everyday upgrade
Size: Pack of 1
Since I work from my small apartment and game at night, I grabbed this 12900K while it was on sale to upgrade my aging rig instead of buying a whole new PC. I paired it with a mid-range GPU and reused my old case to save money. First thing I did was jump into Baldur’s Gate 3 and Discord while Chrome had a ton of tabs open. No stutter, just smooth. Temps run a bit hot so I put some extra cash into a decent cooler. Kind of glad I did because the chip boosts hard when I’m editing videos for my side gig. ... show more

    • Fast CPU for design and gaming
Size: Pack of 1
I picked this i9-12900K for my home studio PC since I juggle Figma, Blender, and Lightroom with Spotify and way too many Chrome tabs. I render a short product animation and jump into Apex Legends without rebooting. Fans spin up but temps stay fine. Glad my exports finish noticeably faster now.
