    This thing is insane. I am coming from a 9th gen i7 which I thought was pretty fast, but I really wanted to try one of these new CPUs with the P&E cores. This thing is waaaay faster than that old i7, and does so without breaking a sweat. A great value, and much better than the i5s of years past.

    I5 13600k with a 6750 xt, 32gb ddr, on z790 itx build. With a 280 aio nzxt cooler it gets a to a toasty 60 degrees under 30 percent load when im gaming. Which as i understand is pretty good. My first build and overall very satisfied.

    I recently started building my pc and i ordered this cpu because in my opinion it is the best value for the performance. I ended up almost canceling this order for a ryzen 7000 series cpu but ended up backing out of it due to the platform cost. This cpu will last me for a long time hopfully.

    I had a feeling this would be a good generation to do an upgrade, and I wasn’t mistaken! This CPU performs wonderfully and has been consistently in the top 15 of all CPU’s since it came out.

    All you need for gaming and productivity. You can get faster CPU's from Intel but you will pay a premium with not enough of an increase in performance. 13600K is just right.

    Solid CPU, haven't had any issues and having the integrated graphics on the chip help if my GPU ever goes out. Out of the 13th series i think the i5 is the best bang for the buck.

    Works great and I do not have the temperature issues with this with the i5-13600K that I was having with my other i7-13700K CPU. Speeds are great and you can overclock it if you wish to do so.

    For 4k gaming there's no better deal than this CPU. In 4k gaming the 13600K is so close to the 13700K and 13900K that it's no better value than this. Amazing chip!

    A perfect chip for me and my pc needs. Not everyone needs the i7 or i9 for gaming. Please do your own research before purchasing anything.
