Quality


This special edition of core i9 12900 series is the best over the rest,, very surprising performance


Great processor but hot, therefore, good cooling and a little tweaking in the bios is desirable


I heard people complain that it runs hot but with some really good thermal paste and the nzxt kraken, this thing doesn’t see an...  Read More


2ghz across 8 cores / 16 threads, on an air cooler and i'm not touching anything for oc.

Price


Definitely a steal for its price in today market.


Cannot complain for its price, almost good as an i7 13700k.


Downgraded to this and it's solid at least and saves me about $300.


2 and that was only for a couple cores-worth.

Shipping


This beast of a cpu arrived on time and was well packaged.

Packaging/appearance

Competitiveness


The price quality is just right and not insane compare to the 13th gen i9.


The more recent i5 and i7 processors can more or less be equal in most use cases.

    The first one has been used so i returned it

    Even the slow cores clock in upwards of 4ghz which the tr tapped out at best with 4


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    This one on air does back off that max clock not soon afterwards but i also have this in a 4u rack mounted case with 4 chassis fans vs the previous build which was on a 360 radiatoraio and had 13 system fans but i was going for a rather ridiculous build with that vs this build im going for subtlesleeper
