Intel Core i5-13600K Desktop Processor 14 cores (6 P-cores + 8 E-cores) 24M Cache, up to 5.1 GHz

This processor is blazing fast! The only con I can think of is the temps with factory motherboard settings. Im sure the issue is the power settings from the motherboard

Fast AF

probably the best intel chip ever its so good it runs 30 fps in fortnite battle royale and it the pretty good rob lox

Paired this chip with an RTX 3070 and a Z690 motherboard- no regrets!

Paired the i5 13600k with MSI Z690-A Pro DDR4. Running P-Cores 5.4GHz and E-Cores 4.2GHz without any issues. Efficiency cores are powerful and theyre equivalent to i7 9700k from few years ago. Scores 25,592 in Cinebench 23 with all cores, and 16,507 with E Cores disabled. Simply put, amazing! Cant ask for more. This CPU has no competition, period!

Last home assembled PC lasted us about 12 years. Hopefully this newest setup will last 10 years too. Yes I spent a little more to have the newest, but not the most powerful technology. I have left room for upgrades in the future if I ever need to.

Si, sencillamente mamadísimo

Upgraded from the infamous 11th gen, and the improvement is not even close. FPS improvements and cleared up a lot of stuttering. I had no idea how much my RTX 3080 was being held back by the CPU. The $300 price tag just a week after launch is icing on the cake!

The 13th gen cpus from intel are very impressive. This i5 is no slouch either and can throw its wieght around with the i7 and i9s of previous generations. In Cinebench i got a score of 23605 points. I have an aio 360 ml cooler on it and my temps rarely get above 50c when Im gaming or editing. At idle it stays around 30c. Under load the temps did not go above 80c. This CPU will pair fine with any gaming setup and its ddr5 compatible with is a bonus.

This is an excellent price to performance CPU and outperforms the 5800x3D. For the price the performance is exceptional and impressive and highly recommend this over any current gen CPU
