Worked well with my pc build, handles updates perfectly

Very fast worked perfectly and great value with price matching

Was originally going to get the 65w version, timing and convince won out and grabbed this. While my usual upgrade process takes months, this cpu (along with an upgraded mobo and ram) had such noticeable speed increase to my previous system that I surprised myself. Even with my old 1060 (for now), the performance in games and apps is through the roof.

Little pricey but under synthetic loads renders very well paired with a Corsair h150i elite caplelex idles at 20 degrees and under load doesn’t break 60 can easily get 5.1 to 5.2ghz out of this chip if your coolings right

Coming from a 7700K, this CPU is a beast. I upgraded due to lagging during 3D modeling. Watching my CPU spike to 100% usage was not fun. I never see this CPU have to utilize more than 30-40% and temps stay good even air cooling for anything I do. The BMW Bench does stress its temps with the MC 212 I have it attached to though.

I love it i have it paired with a evga 3090 ftw3 and have a 240mm aio on it and never breaks 60c with the 120w power set up. previous cpu was a r7 5800x and it blows it out the water, no doubt.

Happy with the speed, runs cool, have not overclocked yet

Performs awesome great product the only bad thing was shipt they never showed.up that day to get it to deliver it and didnt contact me either had to go get it the next day

it works excellent and love this product have no problems oc easy

Worked great, pc runs and had no more lag, upgraded from a i5-14600F

Great powerful cpu, works for everything I need to do

Very happy with this CPU. Ran a couple benchmark tests and saw that the performance was pretty consistent with other’s builds.

Was looking for a good cpu for my first built and landed on this bad boy. Solid stuff!

Great CPU. Single threaded, multi-threaded, this does it all. Definitely the sweet spot for Alder Lake in terms of well-rounded performance. If you're only gaming, definitely check out the 12600K, but if you have any production workloads that can benefit from extra threads, this is incredibly close to the 12900k for far less money.

I had a 7700k and althought it was still a good performing cpu, I could tell it was aging a little. With Windows 11 (I know, not everyone's cup of tea) requiring more modern cpu's I decided to upgrade. The performance boost was extremely noticeable and I actually enjoy running Windows 11.

I purchased this processor to build a new PC for my wife. I currently have a i9-10900k on my own setup and have an issue with it running too hot (with custom cooling). This i7 is almost on par with my i9 with no overheating issue with just a standard AIO.

Highly recommend!! Installed on gaming computer still working strong after 2+ years

Super fast and cost as much as an 11th gen I7, however finding parts and coolers for it is troublesome and somewhat expensive but still great overall well worth the price

Fast! Paired with the MSI Z-690, this processor really is incredible. Had an issue with Corsair 3600 MHZ RAM, so I had to use a pair of 3400 sticks. Once my system posted, all bets were off! Judge improvement from my 9900K. Runs MSFS with a lot of power. Great buy!

Bought this for my PC, my younger brother has the same in his PC and recommended this. He said it works great!
