review of the Intel core i5-12600k

I have recently researched and tested the intel core i5-12600k and I will show the pros and cons of this CPU and why its one of the best valued CPUs on the market. my recent experience with this CPU has been surprisingly great.

here are the specs:

  • LGA 1700
  • 10 cores 16 threads
  • 20MB L3 or L2 smart cache

research shows that this CPU on passmark.com has a 26705 rating and a 3970 single thread rating, relatively faster than any CPU’s that are cheap on the market. One example to prove

this is with the Intel Core i5-10400F with a Passmark rating only at 12438 and a single thread rating at 1279 for 150$ so don’t be fooled just by looking at the price. although this CPU is priced at 299$ on newegg.com and is one of the best CPU’s from intel that would get the most out of your money if your intending to make a home/ gaming pc.

 

 

 

 

 

In conclusion this CPU is great and quick with transferring data and is very resourceful with the space it has, I think its a great CPU that is the most out of your budget when getting CPUs.

this cpu is rated 5 out of 5 by 50 buyers on newegg.com

This motherboard i have tested and overall I believe its a great intel ASUS motherboard! this motherboard goes forĀ  349$ on Newegg which i personally think its a great price point. this motherboard can support 12th gen intel processors. it offers 6 Sata ports and a m.2 port, perfect for gaming. it has 2 16X expansion slots, perfect for your graphics cards!

it has been rated 4 out of 5 eggs by Newegg and I agree with that!
