    Please keep in mind, if you're plans are to utilize this cpu in a sff build; make sure you've done your reaearch. Heat dissipation of your AIO/cooling loop is vital to sufficiently cool this cpu.

    Top notch speeds and flexibility, if you can manage the heat. This will get hot, so get a large cooler if you go with this!

    Most powerful processor for gaming, handles anything you throw at it like a champ. MW2 coming from a 12900K went up around 20-40 FPS.

    I doubt anyone running anything but a synthetic workload will ever even come close to touching all this cpu can do. Its just unreal. Make sure you can cool it though it gets very hot at medium to high loads. Z690 kingpin motherboard gave me a heck of a time with the bios update to be compatible with raptor lake. Little buyer beware there but EVGA fourums got me sorted out with an experimental bios.

    It's amazing... but amazingly hot as well. It does everything I need flawlessly. The only issue I have is 3D rendering. It hits 100 degrees Celsius and bottlenecks. Fortunately, that is with in the specs and my motherboard handles it exactly as it's supposed to. I lowered the temp limit even lower just to be safe. My watercooler just cant keep up with it when rendering, but it handles everything else flawlessly.
