    • After few years of use - rock solid
Style: i5-12600KF
Ideal combination of performance, price and power consumption. The i5 still rocks, pulls every game I played no problem. Great for daily tasks like code compilation, video editing and compression. Luckily doesn’t have the recent 13 & 14 gen stability problems. Are i7 and i9 more powerful? Yes, but not by much, in most cases you won’t even notice. Are they worth their price and electricity bill? No. ... show more

    • Impressive Performance Upgrade - A Mid-Range Powerhouse
Style: i5-12600KF
I recently upgraded my PC's CPU to the Intel Core i5-12600KF from an older i7 6700k, and the improvement in performance has been nothing short of phenomenal. This processor has significantly boosted my PC's speed, making it feel at least five times faster than before. The addition of extra cores in the i5-12600KF is likely a major factor in this performance leap. It handles multitasking and demanding applications with remarkable ease, making my computing experience smoother and more efficient. Whether I'm gaming, working on intensive software, or just browsing, everything feels snappier and more responsive. What I appreciate most about the i5-12600KF is its balance of power and affordability. It's a fantastic middle-ground CPU that offers high-end performance without the hefty price tag of top-tier processors. This makes it an ideal choice for users like me who want a significant upgrade without breaking the bank. In conclusion, the Intel Core i5-12600KF is an excellent choice for anyone looking to upgrade their PC. Its ability to significantly boost performance, combined with its reasonable price, makes it a standout option in the mid-range CPU market. I highly recommend it to anyone looking to rejuvenate their computing experience. ... show more

Best for a budget rig with nice temperature and capabilities. Pair with a 4070 Ti Super, any problems and good graphics quality.

    • Runs faster and cooler than expected
Style: i5-12600KF
I needed a CPU to cobble together a DDR4 system from existing parts. This was on sale. I normally buy i7 or better but in this case I doubt the extra cores would make much perceptible difference in throughput for what I do with the thing. I was surprised at how fast this CPU seems compared to Ryzen 5xxx. Its running fine on a (largish) air cooler and is supposed to be immune to the Intel voltage curse afflicting 13th and 14th gen parts. I specifically did not want the iGPU, something to consider in an F part. ... show more

    • Very powerful for the price

I built a budget friendly gaming computer, and this processor is amazing for the price. Paired with a 3060, and 32GB or RAM, this thing plays any game I've thrown at it.

It works perfectly, but I think the price could be lower.
