Review: Great Buy - I have three machines for grandchildren to play with, also three Steam accounts, two machines are intel, one 12400f CPU and the 12600kf I just put in to replace 12100f... what a difference! the twelfth generation are so stable and proven runners. I can recommend the 12100f, 12400f and the 12600kf, we play shooter's all the time, I am 79 years old built them and play 'em.
Review: Diamond in the rough - Bought this for a recent budget build to use up spare parts. Runs like a champ. Punches way above it's weight. I can't believe how cool this thing runs with an inexpensive Peerless Assassin HSF. My main computer is a 265k. It has much more muscle. But it runs much hotter- watercooled no less. This i5 idles a few degrees above room temperature. It barely breaks a sweat in Cinebench, it never gets above 63C. Nice little processor. Intel got it right with this cpu.
