This CPU was an upgrade for me over a 9600k. Went from 6/6 to 10/16 and definitely notice the difference for less the price.
It's running very cool with a nh -15s strapped to it @ 24c .at idle . I would class this cpu as an entry-level cpu , good for most things , if you require more grunt the i7 and the i9 are for you ,
If there was ever a CPU designed solely for revenge, Intel’s 12th-gen “Alder Lake” Core i5-12600K would be it.
Intel’s 12th-gen Core i5-12600K offers stunning performance over its AMD Ryzen rival—and offers consumers unheard-of value too.
Stupidly good multi-core performance; Really good single-core performance; Value that breaks new ground;
DDR5 option drives up pricing; Prices likely to be initially high; If you just game, who cares what CPU you have?;
It's fast and runs cool with the right cooler. Note, along with a z690 mother board, you need an aftermarket LGA 1700 compatible cooler for the CPU (it doesn't come bundled with one) and PB Tech wasn't stocking any at time of review. Would buy again.
