After a lot of research, my son said this was the best speed for the price

one of the best value cpus to come out in the last 5 years. Power efficiency is insane. Using less than 10w at idle and is able to tie previous 8 core I9 processors for multicore performance. doesnt provide the same performance as some newer amd offerings but have seen less driver and motherboard issues on 12th gen intel platforms

Its fast for the value of this CPU. No Integrated Graphics but this pairs nicely with my RX 6600 for 1080p gaming.

I’ve had no problems with this at all. Good speed, but if you don’t work on computers be VERY careful installing this and learn exactly what to do first. Also make sure you get a graphics card because this does not have built in graphics

[Employee of bestbuy] The smaller brother of the 12600k. This also cost a decent amount less than a 12600k while maintaining close performance. Pair this with something like a 3060Ti and you have a well balanced build.

very good 1440p gaming performance. doesn't run too hot when equipped with a good air cooler. I have a 3070 and i get framerates above 100 in high settings in warzone 2. i also play Overwatch and i max out my monitor at 165fps

Excellent entry level CPU that won’t bottleneck many GPUs while allowing you to stream and have multiple applications running if you intend to watch videos or listen to soemthing while gaming.

Decent midrange CPU with a fairly easy to install fan that has preapplied thermal paste. It runs well and the cooler keeps the temps low and isn’t loud.

It is perfect for the price! I paired this CPU up with my 6750XT and it worked amazingly, not a single problem.

Very good value - not the fastest CPU on the market anymore, but can still do the heavy lifting for a nice price

This is a decent processor if you dont mind its lack of an iGPU, or only 6 cores. If youre considering a build in 2024, I would reccomend going with an 8 core CPU instead.

Good this for my brother, and he has gotten a lot of use from this. From learning CAD, Rhino, Sketch-up, runs fairly well.

Picked this up on sale for a great price and paired it with the RTX 3080 for 4k gaming. This is just the right amount of CPU for 4K since most games are GPU bound and this CPU does not bottleneck the 3080 very often. I used a $20 ID SE214 cpu cooler with this CPU and the temps don't exceed 65C at 100% load in my Fractal Torrent Nano case.

My son was building his first gaming PC and was looking for a good mid-range CPU. This CPU was the perfect fit and paired nicely with his 3060 Ti.
