  • The processor also runs surprisingly cool, even under heavy load.
Size: Pack of 1
The media could not be loaded. 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

  • Runs great!
Size: Pack of 1
The media could not be loaded. Glad I got this, it was on a sale on prime day for 250 so great value. It's fast and has ran everything super smoothly. If I'm not gaming it only uses 10% and if I am video and audio editing it uses 15%. At most so far it's used 30% on basic games. I can't wait to start playing COD and ark on this when my GPU arrives. It passed all stress tests and will be able to handle anything I will be throwing at it. Easy to install and worked well. The temp, paired with my thermalright aio is staying under 30°c with minimal usage and is averaging 47° high usage. The in the stress test it only reached 56° running max capacity. It's running stabely. Would recommend if you get it on a deal, but go for an i7 12700k, most people won't need an i9 power even for gaming. But like in my case if it was the same price as the i7 then by all means. I posted a video of my build on YT named: Carisneat123 | First PC Build | goodbye low fps gaming If anyone is interested in the parts I used with it, unboxing, installation, tests, game fps, and temps. ... show more
