    Love this processor! Put it in my new gaming PC I built and it works flawlessly! I’d recommend this to anyone who wants a good processor without spending $800

    Great CPU and it is fast. It is the first CPU I've ever bought that didn't have a cooling fan, and the CPU apparently runs too hot for a standard fan/heatsink combo. So be prepared to install either a liquid cooling system, or a high end cooler like mine, a Noctua NH-U12A if you have the room!

    I've been using this for quite some time and have 0 issues or complaints. It seems to be more than enough for any game I throw at it, as well as doing my job while working from home. It can run a bit hot, but the 12 & 13 series run hotter than previous series by design.

    I went from i5 9600k to this i7 over clocked. I had upgraded my motherboard from 360 to 960. Was able to get Windows 11 installed. Until now I still enjoy using it. Had no problems. Keep your hardware updated.

    I upgraded from an i7-7700K to this CPU just so I could finally make the switch to Windows 11. This thing is fast as hell, handles all workloads like a titan!

    It’s cheaper on amazon by at least 80$ or so make sure you’re not over paying for a cpu, and yes shipped and sold by.
