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

Solid speeds, good price . Stock was available and install was a breeze.

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.

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!

To think that an i5 nowadays has 14 cores/20 threads is just crazy. This CPU is very capable and handles anything I throw at it with ease. Does the average user really need even an i7 or i9 at this point?

absolutely annihilate everything I throw at it.

The i5 -13600K provides the best performance in its price range.

The CPU is great, but Amazons driver lost my CPU, and I can only refund, and cannot refund the original exchange rate, please be careful.Said to be serious about security and ended up losing my package, lol.

This chip is great for both gaming and content creation. The CPU and platform are both affordable. Best cheap since the legendary 2500K.

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

Must buy good cooler for it. I have Noctua D14 and its hardly enough.
