Incredible value!
The Core i5 series does not get the credit it deserves. The new processors are so amazing at such a low price, they dominate previous i7's at a fraction of the cost. I highly recommend this to anyone who wants high performance and a great price.

Intel should really be proud of this CPU.
Intel i5 13600kf is an amazing chipset that’s extremely powerful. The CPU has not bottlenecked my GPU. I’ve been enjoying gaming on an ultrawide at smooth framerate. This 13600kf is on par with a Intel i9 12900k which is amazing to get a new performance processor at this price point. Prior to this I was using a 4670k, 4770k, and an 11700k for other PCs. Mostly been stuck with the 4770k for years and only spent a little time with a 11700k. This one truly outperforms anything I’ve used in my time of PC building. Walking up the PC from sleep mode is certainly more enjoyable then what it was. Tons of features in the CPU itself. This is an outstanding CPU from Intel and one they should continue to strive for. If you are into gaming and want something that’s just the all around best performer going into 2023 this is one to take a look at. (Get the 13600k if you want integrated graphics. Which helps with troubleshooting in future purposes.) if the chip does reach hot temperatures, it throttles down to acceptable levels. So far I haven’t had a really high temperatures in gaming everything from Forza Horizon 5, 3D mark, Gears, COD, Fortnite, Control, Resident Evil Village, A Plague’s Tale, Witcher 3, PC Building Simulator 2, TMNT: SR all worked perfectly with no issues. One game; called “High On Life.” Was the only game I seen reaching up to strange levels of 83 - 90 in temps. The CPU just throttled down in this game for me but other titles never seen those temps again. Using a ASROCK Sonic PG z790 motherboard along with a 3080Ti and DDR5. Haven’t had any abnormal problems with DDR5. Overall it’s just a good CPU and one Intel should stand proud on in the face of the competition. One I know I’m going to be using for years to come, this CPU is definitely a winner.
