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

The Ryzen 9 5950X is the current best CPU for AM4 on the market. This CPU has optimized performance surpassing any other Ryzen series processor. It has a passmark score of 46183 which is over double that of the Ryzen 7 3700X. Its single thread rating is 3500 making it the best AMD CPU by single thread rating.

This CPU boasts a great passmark score surpassing even the i9-12900KF, the current best non-server intel CPU, despite having a slower single-thread rating. This CPU shows high performance displaying that it is entirely worth the price of $730. This CPU can also reach up to 4.9GHZ after being overclocked.

This CPU is rated 5 out of 5 stars on new egg telling us that the CPU can perform up to standards. It has over 2100  5 star ratings on newegg indicating that this isn’t just due to the low amount of people buying it. Along with this it is rated 5 stars in value, performance, and gaming.

This CPU has great performance despite its price and has 16 cores which is more than most AM4 CPU’s. This CPU has shown time and time again that it can deliver high benchmarks and good performance for gaming and work.

This is the Ryzen 5 3500X CPU. I bought this CPU for my motherboard ASUS PRIME B550-PLUS and it has great quality. It cost about $219.99 if you buy it used like I did, I love having this CPU for my motherboard. It has a Passmark rating of 2532 and has a Newegg rating of 4 out of 5. This pictures below is the rating plus some of the things you want to know.                                                          

This CPU has a good clock speed, the clock speed is 3.6GHZ. This may or may not work for your motherboard, but this works well for my motherboard. This CPU cache has good numbers, L1 is 384KB, L2 is 3MB, and L3 is 32MB. The socket type is the same from the motherboard as I have, which is ATX. I can’t forget the processors and threads, there is 6 core processors and 6 thread. As I have said, this CPU is super good if it fits the motherboard you have. It gives all the requirements you want for your motherboard.

The Intel Core i9-11900KF is currently the fastest-rated LGA1200 CPU on the market today.  If you have an LGA1200 compatible motherboard, it is the best CPU for you!

Currently listed for $499 on Newegg, it has excellent reviews by other users.  With 5 out of 5 eggs by all reviewers.

The specifications on the CPU are impressive.  The most important of the specs are:

• Total Cores 8
• Total Threads 16
• Max Turbo Frequency 5.30 GHz
• Processor Base Frequency 3.50 GHz
• Cache 16 MB Intel® Smart Cache

Passmark ratings of this CPU are great. It is rated the highest among LGA 1200 CPUs.  With a combined rating of 25675 and a single thread rating of 3596, this CPU will not disappoint any avid gamer.  It does show it is rated for DDR4 3200, so use caution if you are attempting to use it with other rated memory.

While there are other, faster, Intel CPUs for LGA2066 and LGA1700 motherboards, if you currently have an LGA1200 rig, this is your best choice for a quality upgrade.  The single threat rating is superior to many of the options listed above it in PassMark, and it is the more important number for many gamers.  Game on!

While there are many great CPUs for gaming there are a few that always stand out. One of which is the Intel Core i9-10900K. A CPU that is great for gaming and is also very reliable.  This CPU has very good specs for a very good price. (Link to website below)

CPU Specifications:

CPU Clockspeed:3.7 GHz –> 5.30 GHz (Max Turbo)

CPU Cache: 20 MB (L3)

CPU Socket Type: LGA 1200

CPU Processors: 10 Core, 20 Threads

CPU Wattage Cost: 125W

This amazing processor also is rated very well by Passmark. It is placed second amongst PassMarks top 10 Common Desktop CPUs.  Having a good score from  PassMark will help those in the market for a new  CPU  find what would be a top-notch CPU for their setup. Whether it be that they are looking for the best CPU out there. Or simply one that is great for the money, PassMark is a great place to start.

Along with the rating and specs of the CPU, there is the cost. This is arguably the second most important thing after the performance.

As stated earlier it is a great CPU at a Great price. For nearly 1,000 dollars less you are getting a similar experience to the Ryzen Threadripper 3960x. In conclusion, this is a CPU i’m sure would suit the needs of whoever needs it for gaming and those who use it as a casual business CPU. So, I recommend this CPU.

Behold, this CPU is one of the best selling, yet cost-effective CPUs on the market currently. Boasting 24 cores and 48 threads, and over 140MB of CPU cache spread across L1, L2, and L3 cache, you definitely get the power for what you put in

Although it does take a hefty amount of power from your PSU (280W to be exact) to run this powerhouse, It can run some of the top GPUS with ease. also goes well with a water-cooling system, which is recommended if you plan on playing for extended durations of time.

“All good, running great in all scenarios so far! I do not have a single complaint, Runs AutoCAD like a beast!! And all other things I throw at it with buttery smoothness, it’s beautiful! Not overclocked running great with H115i. 64GB DDR4 3600 cl16. Zenith II Extreme Mobo.”

By my Boss, I was asked to review the AMD Ryzen 3800x.  I honestly had to do a decent amount of research because I am not down pat on what a CPU does.  He is wanting me to determine whether or not this CPU would be a good gamer CPU.  I know the simple stuff like what the CPU is which is the Central Processing Unit, and the clock speed which for this CPU it has a Base Clock speed of 3,900,000,000 GHz which means it processing at 3.9 billion cycles a second.

This CPU is an 8 core processor, or Octo core processor.  The processor core receives instructions from a single computing task, and works with the clock speed to quickly process the information and temporarily store in the Random Access Memory which the acronym to this term would be RAM.  Im glad I finally cleared this up.

So this CPU has 512 KB of L1 Cache, 4 MB of L2 Cache, and 32 MB of L3 Cache.  Cache is a small part of the memory which is apart of the CPU, actually it is closer to the CPU than RAM.  It is used to temporarily hold instructions and data that the CPU is likely to reuse.  So as you can tell this CPU has plenty of storage on the CPU for you being able to download files or play games on. This is all new to me honestly.

So this CPU has 16 threads.  By the research I have done a thread is directly related to a CPU core and is basically just a virtual version of it.  Although many AMD CPU’s use SMT (Surface Mount Technology) related to their threads, many Intel CPU’s use hyperthreading.

Ultimately, this CPU would be a good match for ideally a Business CPU or a Home CPU.  I mean if you want to, you could run this as a low end Gaming CPU but if you dont have to you definitely do not want to.

All in All, I would definitely recommend this CPU for your Business or Home purposes.  It makes a quality CPU for surfing the web or playing small games like coolmath games for example.  If you had to, you could run this as a low end Gaming CPU, but I would not recommend it.

On Newegg.com 83% of users on this site give it 5 eggs which is the highest amount of eggs you can give.
