The media could not be loaded. Glad I got this, it was on a sale on prime day for 250 so great value. It's fast and has ran everything super smoothly. If I'm not gaming it only uses 10% and if I am video and audio editing it uses 15%. At most so far it's used 30% on basic games. I can't wait to start playing COD and ark on this when my GPU arrives. It passed all stress tests and will be able to handle anything I will be throwing at it. Easy to install and worked well. The temp, paired with my thermalright aio is staying under 30°c with minimal usage and is averaging 47° high usage. The in the stress test it only reached 56° running max capacity. It's running stabely. Would recommend if you get it on a deal, but go for an i7 12700k, most people won't need an i9 power even for gaming. But like in my case if it was the same price as the i7 then by all means. I posted a video of my build on YT named: Carisneat123 | First PC Build | goodbye low fps gaming If anyone is interested in the parts I used with it, unboxing, installation, tests, game fps, and temps. ... show more

    • Excellent Processor. Very fast! Good price.
Style: i9-12900K
Review Image by Amy B. Amy B.
Went with the i9 12900k over the newer 13900k or 14900K because the 12900k doesn’t suffer from the weird degradation issues and/or instability of the 13th and 14th gen parts. Plus I already had an ASUS Z790 Maximus Hero board that I wanted to use - and my board supports 12th gen CPUs. Very happy with this 12th gen proc. It can do everything and more than I need it do - plus it is a great gaming CPU. ... show more

    • Unit was previously opened....
Style: i9-12900K
I've put together a few systems and run some retail 12900k chips so far and the 12900k is by far an amazingly fast CPU. Unfortunately this one I ordered from Amazon came already opened. As soon as I opened the shipping box I could tell it had been opened before. The edge was uneven and the label crease was loose. I put my X-acto Knife down (which is what you need or something similar to open these as the label is there for a reason) and with just the gentlest of pressure the label peeled away from the center where someone oh so nicely had finely cut the label horizontal to make it easy to fold one side back over the other and with just a quick once over it looked almost normal. If I hadn't opened a few of them already with Intel's fancy new packaging I probably would not have noticed but the way the packaging normally is, it is VERY precise, tight, even lines and you will not be easily or gently opening it up with a simple light finger pry. My biggest fear was there wasn't going to be a CPU in there at all but luckily the right CPU was in there that matched the container batch but if something is sold as new I don't do open boxes. Make sure to check your packages before opening. The seal should be nice and tight and straight. The edges of the back flap should be firm and secure against the other flap and the bottom line/edges should be even and exacting. Give a gentle pull on each corner of the box where the label keeps it sealed to make sure it hasn't been altered or tampered with. It should be VERY firm and unable to just pull open easily. Look at the condition of the box itself around that area and even the gold disk inside. Fresh, brand new i9 12900k's are very pristine and boxed with precision. Still, they are fantastic processors overall and a worthy upgrade from 10th and 11th gen. ... show more

    • Amazing core from Intel!
Style: i9-12900K
I love this core. Runs heavy hitting games like Cyberpunk great, and low power games such as visual novels with ease. In terms of power use, it's not the most efficient, but you ARE getting a lot. Same with heat, I chose to use a 360mm aio cooler to mitigate any temperature issues, and it has worked great in keeping this heat beast cool. Core wise you get 8 performance cores and 8 efficiency cores. As long as it's teamed up with a operating system built for hybrid cores like Win 11, you should be fine; this goes for all Intel 12 generation cores. In conclusion, runs hot, but is a beast. FULLY recommended for the enthusiast. ... show more

    • An absolute beast

Review Image by Anthony Anthony
So I upgraded to this from a i7 12700k and you wouldn’t think the one jump up would make such a huge difference but it is IMMENSE. Even runnin my game, YouTube, discord, and my monitoring software it used 10 to 15% of the cpu. Make sure you have a good aio liquid cooler cause they do run warm but stays cool for me with a 360mm deep cool lt720 infinity series. Would definitely recommend. I’ve got it on a asus a760 creator d4 with an rtx 4060 oc, performs so well. ... show more

    • The processor also runs surprisingly cool, even under heavy load.
Style: i9-12900K
The media could not be loaded. I recently got my hands on the Intel Core i9-12900K Desktop Processor, and I have to say, I am blown away by its performance. This processor is an absolute powerhouse, with 16 cores (8P+8E) and speeds of up to 5.2 GHz. It's also unlocked, which means I can push its limits even further if I want to. Installing the processor was easy enough, although I did have to make sure my motherboard was compatible with the LGA1700 socket and 600 series chipset. Once I had everything set up, I fired up my favorite games and applications to see how the processor would perform. The results were nothing short of impressive. The i9-12900K chewed through every task I threw at it with ease, from demanding video editing software to the latest AAA games. I was able to multitask without any lag or slowdowns, and my system felt incredibly responsive and snappy. The processor also runs surprisingly cool, even under heavy load. I did notice a slight increase in power consumption compared to my old processor, but it's a small price to pay for the sheer performance boost. Overall, I am extremely satisfied with the Intel Core i9-12900K Desktop Processor. If you're a power user or a gamer who demands the best performance, this processor is definitely worth considering. It's not cheap, but in my opinion, it's worth every penny for the sheer power and speed it delivers. ... show more
