Customer Ratings & Reviews

Super easy to install and didn't have to worry about bending any pins. This was used in my first pc build ever and a huge improvement from my old i7-7700 that I used to have.

A great and reliable CPU! This was my first time building my own PC after years using apple computers and the performance is out of this world.

Great processor, it chomps through anything I throw at it. Max threads score for 3DMark CPU profile test: 10,049. My old 6700k had a score of 3,272 for comparison.

Paired this up an ASUS Z690 and an RTX3070ti and my PC is disturbingly fast with fantastic FPS while gaming. Stays nice and cool thanks to my Corsair H150i capellix.

"Twelve" cores is a white-lie, there technically is, but eight of them are the ones you want for your every-day tasks. Effeciency cores shouldn't be disparaged, although I'm sure most people would prefer a full twelve cored. The K variant being over-clockable/boostable shines in gaming and in multi-core workloads. You get what you pay for.

12th Gen Intel Desktop Processor is fast; makes 11th Gen Intel Desktop Processors not worth the trouble to purchase. No problems noted with 12th Gen Intel Desktop Processor.

It absolutely love this product.It performs very well and cooler.

Got this at a decent price since the 13th gen processors have come out so this is a beast of a processor for a great price

Purchased this for my rig and it is a beast, paired with my 3090 it crushes any game at max settings that I throw at it. For the price to performance this is one of the best deals you can get.

Insanely fast, eats anything that I feed it and keeps on going. Definitely feel I will be able to use this CPU for quite some time without needing to upgrade.

Incredible performance, and includes Modern Warfare II. It runs cooler than my 11700f. I got an increase of 40fps in Warzone. Im very happy

Excellent pricing in comparison with other websites. Anybody who is building a new rig have the option to buy the Intel 12000 series or the AMD 5000 series. In terms of cost for performance Intel's new Alderlake CPUs are much better. Those who can wait a bit longer can wait for more cheaper motherboard options.

Great power for a custom pc that I built. Would buy this again due to the insane value it provides

Overral real good perfomance and very easy installation. Great price also.

Amazing CPU, can do anything from video editing, to Photoshop with ease. Buy this CPU instead of going for a 13th or 14th gen because of the failure rates those two generations are having at the moment.

Intel processors top tier with plenty of juice and can be overclocked with plenty of juice

I am very pleased with this processor I have had any issues with it in the months I have had it and I will definitely keep using it

I was originally going to get the i9, but after watching several reviews comparing the i9 to the i7, it just didn't make sense to spend twice the money on ~10-20% gain. Plus, the i9 uses WAY more power than the i7. I've gotten it comfortably overclocked to 5.0GHz on a Z63 Kraken AIO. And even at that voltage the CPU temps don't really get above 40c-45c. So far the performance has been outstanding. Along with my 3090 and DDR 5600MHz RAM, there really isn't anything I can't run at max settings. And it runs buttery smooth on my Samsung Oddyssey Neo G9 :)

I purchased this processor in 2022 for a new PC build. The have been using the system daily since then and have had zero issues. I would recommend this cpu still to this day.

Fast and works great did lots of speed test and comparison to the 11th GEN i9 and definitely out performs
