Intel Core i7-12700KF Desktop Processor 12 (8P+4E) Cores up to 5.0 GHz Unlocked  LGA1700 600 Series Chipset 125W

Great CPU. Although the rated tdp is 190w at peak and 125 for typical tdp, during normal everyday usage, my own setup consumes about 25w without GPU. I am surprised how little power this thing consumes while having the capability to provide the power I need when I need it. I pair this with scythe Fuma 2 rev b, at 17C ambient, the temperature was 66C during max load. Everything is much faster compared to my old i7 hq6700 rog laptop.

Building new setup to replace laptop since I dont travel for work anymore.

working well

Games are gpu limited by my 3080 strix which says a lot.

Its the latest gen i7 right now and it does not disappoint. Games at 1440p or 4k pushing 100-200fps depending on the game when paired with a RTX 3070 and 32gb of fast ram, even with no overclocking. With a ceiling to raise and such good specs out of the box, a great & futureproof choice of CPU.

Was upgrading from i9-9900KF and what an improvement!

I can see this dominating AMD for the near future. OCs to 5.3GHz without much effort.

Does great while gaming and shreds when it comes to rendering. With my 9400f it would take several minutes to render videos that I have edited whereas this takes no longer than 30 seconds to a minute. Love it.

Plugged this into my Asus 690-A Prime motherboard and it booted right up without any issues. Fast, DDR5 support. Will try to overclock and get even more performance.

Cheap and fast.
