    Intel did a great job with 12 gen Core processors, codenamed Alder Lake - improvement on all fronts - energy efficiency, single- and multi- thread performance, P-cores and E-cores (which is a nicest feature for laptop, but for desktop a bit controversial - you need to switch to Windows 11 for E-cores to work properly). This particular 12700K - is the best solution for gamers and content creators in 2022, I am really impressed with the performance boost over 10th gen Comet Lake.

    It’s a fantastic processor. I would say it’s more worth its price than the i9 12900k, at least if your goal is gaming.

    I have swapped back and forth from Intel to AMD since the 90's and I can honestly state that all of my Intel PC's and laptops ran smooth as butter. AMD always seemed glitchy and slow to load while doing the most mundane of tasks. Granted its been at least 10 years since my last AMD device... But the Alder Lake CPU's are just amazing. Fast, overcockable, and just in your face! Shoot for first when gaming! Dont blow it with AMD!

    For the price its so good. Only 2% difference from the i9 12900k and its almost half the price a no brainer imo.

    Great chip. Worked great at advertised speeds. In my opinion this is a much better option than a 600$ i9.

    I've been running my computer with this processor for a full year now, and it's a powerhouse! I haven't had trouble running anything, at all, so no desire to upgrade to Intel's 13th or 14th generation chips at the moment.
