  • Incredible Performance for Gaming and Multitasking!
The Intel Core i9-12900K is an absolute powerhouse! With 16 cores (8 performance and 8 efficiency), it delivers outstanding speed, handling even the most demanding games and applications effortlessly. The processor can reach up to 5.2 GHz, and the unlocked features give you plenty of room for overclocking to boost performance even further. I am particularly impressed with its integrated graphics, which provide smooth performance without the need for a dedicated GPU for lighter tasks or when gaming at lower resolutions. Whether I'm gaming, streaming, or multitasking with resource-heavy applications, this CPU handles it all with ease. The LGA1700 socket and 600 series chipset ensure compatibility with future tech upgrades. If you're looking for a high-performance processor that can handle anything you throw at it, the i9-12900K is a fantastic choice. Worth every penny! ... show more

  • Great chip! Can be a warm one tho, so needs a good cooler.
Was new in box as advertised. Haven't had any issues with it in the months since buying it. Been a great chip for gaming and productivity. Make sure you use a good cooler for this guy. I'm using an arctic liquid freezer iii pro 360mm a-rgb aio and it's keeping it at 61°c under full cinebench multicore test. Went with the 12th gen to avoid any of the issues 13th and 14th gen suffered from. ... show more

  • The processor also runs surprisingly cool, even under heavy load.
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

  • Unit was previously opened....
I've put together a few systems and run some retail 12900k chips so far and the 12900k is by far an amazingly fast CPU. Unfortunately this one I ordered from Amazon came already opened. As soon as I opened the shipping box I could tell it had been opened before. The edge was uneven and the label crease was loose. I put my X-acto Knife down (which is what you need or something similar to open these as the label is there for a reason) and with just the gentlest of pressure the label peeled away from the center where someone oh so nicely had finely cut the label horizontal to make it easy to fold one side back over the other and with just a quick once over it looked almost normal. If I hadn't opened a few of them already with Intel's fancy new packaging I probably would not have noticed but the way the packaging normally is, it is VERY precise, tight, even lines and you will not be easily or gently opening it up with a simple light finger pry. My biggest fear was there wasn't going to be a CPU in there at all but luckily the right CPU was in there that matched the container batch but if something is sold as new I don't do open boxes. Make sure to check your packages before opening. The seal should be nice and tight and straight. The edges of the back flap should be firm and secure against the other flap and the bottom line/edges should be even and exacting. Give a gentle pull on each corner of the box where the label keeps it sealed to make sure it hasn't been altered or tampered with. It should be VERY firm and unable to just pull open easily. Look at the condition of the box itself around that area and even the gold disk inside. Fresh, brand new i9 12900k's are very pristine and boxed with precision. Still, they are fantastic processors overall and a worthy upgrade from 10th and 11th gen. ... show more
