    What a great CPU. Very fast, and can handle anything that is thrown at it. It is the best CPU for it's value and even outshines the 11th generation i9 and the RX 5900x.

    Good value CPU for 1700 socket intel motherboard. Reasonable TDP requires an upgrade CPU cooler for overclocking.

    12th gen intel i5 cpu, 13th gen intel is a significant improvement over this generation and it makes it hard to recommend. I guess in very certain circumstances go for it. But you'd be better off with a ryzenm 7000 series or 13th gen intel.
