Good CPU. Need to buy cpu fan separately.

This CPU is beast. More than sufficient for most tasks.This version comes with out a heat sink so you will have to buy separately. Also this is unlocked version so produces a lot of heat.You will have to spend 2-3k extra for a good heat sink / aio cooler.I tried to enter bios without the heat sink just to check my pc. But I started to get high CPU temperature within 1-2 minute of powering on the machine. Bottomline - You better buy a good cpu fan/heat sink/aio cooler

Good procesor

The CPU arrives without a fan; this is how it was supposed to be sold. Everything works fine.

A superb piece of a processor

No doubt, 12th gen Intel processors are a marvel of computing technology. Although there is a continuing tug of war between Intel and AMD in this regard. I personally chose Intel Core i7 (12700K) with inbuilt UHD graphics for my newly built desktop PC. For those, who don't want to use a separate and usually exorbitantly priced graphics cards, this processor is a very good alternative. It can handle most of the processing intensive rendering of Blender easily with its unlocked overclocking (obviously you have to use the supporting motherboard, i.e. presently available Z690 chipset motherboards). It can also smoothly handle almost all the tasks of Adobe Lightroom and Photoshop with no hiccups. Not to mention the support of 4K video with HDR if you are looking for some decent and the latest entertainment in your PC. I would suggest this 12th Gen i7 to those who want to use their PC for content creation purpose in the best possible way and also at the same time save some money (compared to 12th Gen i9, which would ideally be the best anyway, but costlier too). The price is still at a high level. Hopefully this comes down soon with the launch of Intel's 13th Gen processors!

It's pretty powerful

It crosses the rated tdp, it was using nearly 230 watts so make sure you've a AIO or a two tower cooler.

S**.

Good product.

The media could not be loaded. So long performance is good, looks good as expected from Intel.works well with the combination ofi7-12700k with Rtx 4060,Will update the info again after proper 1 year of use.
