P Cores run between 5.4 and 5.7 when doing stuff. E Cores always seem to run at 4.6 when doing stuff. Have it paired with a 5090 and a 9100 PRO M.2 NvME for games and boy to things load fast! Haven't noticed any of the speed degradation like those noted when it was first released. I ponied up for good RAM, too. 4x16 gig CAS Latency 30 @ 6400, the processors native RAM speed. Suer you can over clock the RAM but always aim for your sticks being at least as fast as the processors native controller supports. Went from a 10920x to this after holding out as long as I could. I do wish that they'd make an "X" version at some point, you just can't beat the quad channel memory and the 44 PCI-E Lanes.

much stronger than my old Ryzen 3400GE PRO , the graphics adapter on this cpu chip is incredible , loved it - will be upgrading to discreet card but nonetheless incredible .

Overkill for any sort of gaming but so are basically every CPU on the market atm. Good value for performance if you get it on a good sale like I did way under the price of its AMD competitors. Can be undervolted quite heavily and stay stable reducing power consumption and thermals way below what AMD runs at but reviewers are dumb and never do this for some reason despite knowing it's been a MOBO issue for years but blame the CPU. Can handle insane voltages/wattage if you really want to push the clock speeds and got the cooling for it.

With new bios no problem whatsoever

I built a new system for desktop use and small video rendering - No video card, just onboard video. I was very pleased this processor. To convert a (X265) video to (x264) [1 Hr video] took me 35-40 minutes with my old Quadcore. Now that same file converts in 5 minutes! Runs at 95% usage at about 74 degrees. Nuff said.

was a bit scared for the packing especially since it was advertised as CPU only but to my surprise even though it was a mailbox delivery it was very well packed for safety and no damage or scratches anywhere, as for performance it is doing as one would expected from purchased CPU.

When i ordered this i thought it would take a long time to get here but it got here a week early and it was completely intact and clean, plus sent me an email confirming it works, I would definitely buy from here again. Thanks for all of your hard work. Also the CPU Works great :)

Fast Decent temps

Fastest gaming CPU available. 16 cores with up to 5.2Ghz blazing fast processing speed. Unlocked and fully overclockable for even faster performance. Intel usually leaves a lot of overclocking headroom for tinkering. Stupid fast with Intel Golden Cove cores on Intel 7 process node. Bye bye 14nm. Extremely efficient design with it's Big.little design. A first for the x86 PC desktop and the future of desktop computing. Runs on next gen DDR5 and PCIE 5.0 for both GPU and NVME drives for insane bandwidth and storage speed. The competition is stuck on slow and outdated PCIE 4.0 and DDR4. Will only get faster over time with increases in DDR5 speeds. Will age like fine wine. DDR4 is topped out and likely won't see further development. New architecture, new socket, and not largely dead end like the competition. Fairly priced compared to what other team is charging for 16 cores.

Much cheaper than boxed cpu, so if you aren't looking to use a stock cooler this is the way to go, but honestly, you could buy a cheap AIO cooler and still save money over the retail boxed version. CPU was well packaged (bubble wrap package, box, more bubble wrap around a 2nd box containing the plastic CPU holder}, and in perfect condition. Great CPU, at a great price!

-12th gen -LGA 1700 -Fast -Really fast -Silent and effective fan -Thermal Paste pre applied - Good for gaming - Good for budget


Its handling my games much better than my old 1700x in Arc Raiders am running at around 120 frames with a 3070 in 1080 w/ fsr on which is light years better than the 60-80 I was getting before but it is also just way smoother gameplay as well I noticed the 1700x stuttering a lot. I run OBS replay buffer in the background while I game as well which this cpu handles no problem. I also noticed davinci resolve running a lot better after the upgrade. its not gonna win any competitions but for what Im using it for its beautiful.

SPEED... It's faster than the CPU I had for 7 years and overclocked it. I needed an upgrade and didn't want to spend money on the newest stuff.

Fit like a glove into ASRock B450M/AC R2.0 AM4 AMD Promontory B450 SATA 6Gb/s Micro ATX AMD Motherboard Performs well - comes with some heat trasfer ... very quite fan ..

Runs like a champ......fast, stays cool, easy to install.
