In Desktop CPU Processor

Facts prove that this is the most powerful game-specific CPU at present. Under the 1080p image quality, the frame rate of the CPU can make rtx4090 a bottleneck, and the game performance is beyond everyone's imagination. However, the disadvantage is that it is not suitable for office work. The power consumption is very high, the standby state will be as high as about 80w, and the memory controller is very average, and the frequency of the memory stick can only reach about 6000mhz.

Had to return, waiting on new cpu. Return process was easy. Update! Received a new CPU and it worked great! So far so good. The 9700x runs VERY cool and boosts up to 5.5 ghz. I'm using an ARCTIC COOLING Liquid Freezer III - 240 and even during stress tests it only gets to 55c.

It has ran flawlessly for several months non-stop. No high-power games but lots of videos and the usual applications.

-Works Well

It is running in my Asus ROG Maximus Apex. Great with gaming and workloads. Stable over clocking . Better than last gen. Keep up the good work Intel.

- Consistent and reliable performance - Reasonable to keep cooled adequately - Has areas where it does in fact outrun the directly competing other-brand chip

This CPU can do everything I would need to do on a home system

Solid, stable

I had no problem installing into my pc.

Works great, awe-some graphic. I should of opted for the Ryzen 7 , next one be.

It's a nice chip. I have a graphics card so I didn't need the K version; the KF works just fine.

Less power draw, lower temps, better frame rates, then 7700x. Seems better than outgoing model my opinion.

TL;DR 5.7ghz single core six cores 5.1, six cores 5.2 full load. PPT 145 watt CO -30 Ambient 26c Noctua DH15 max 82c CBR23 MC 29335, SC 2053 Asrock X670E Taichi 1.09 Ive been waiting for this since it was said X370 would not support 5000 series. Although it can be now, theres no reason for me to invest in old tech. Im very happy with my purchase. I know its expensive, but ive waited long enough. If i keep waiting, thats all I'll be doing. Of course if the X370 supported the 5000 series at launch like it was suppose to, I could have upgraded 2 years ago and waited on 7000X3D. Se La Vie. Coming from Ryzen 1700 non X / EVGA 1080 ti FTW3.

I had terrible overheating when I tried to upgrade to 10th gen and 11th gen. I waited for 12th gen non-K CPU's to get the best possible thermals. 12400F is currently the top of value/performance, mine runs stable at 30 C idle and around 45 C in CS:GO using Phanteks GlacierOne 240 AIO installed in Asus ROG Strix Z690-A Gaming WiFi D4 (which is an overkill for this CPU, but I was going for an all-white build). I reused my old Corsair DDR4 memory, no issues.

Had been on 8-core CPU's for the longest time, but I found that I was multi-tasking more and more. This CPU fit the bill and it was a noticeable speed bump over my old 5800X. It was a nice middle ground as the next level up, 9950X, was beyond my budget. Plenty good enough for gaming also. Power efficiency is still good enough to stick to air cooling.

Good graphics. Working great in a media PC.

Very Fast and compliments the 4070 TI very well.

- It's a new AMD cpu. With this being said, I do 100% agree that for similar price, you should go with 7800X3D if you're heavy into gaming. - Undervolted to -15mV, and currently running stable (bought it at release).

Everything

Easy to install Thermals out of the box are good. Without overclocking Cinebench score of 39,303 multi-core, 2,229 single core, with a 17.63 MP Ratio.
