Intel i5-12600 Reviews

speedy

It can turbo up to 4.8ghz on single core but usually hovers around 4.4 during gaming. Perfect for a SFF system as it runs much cooler than the K series, plus you don't need to worry about those e cores if you prefer to stay on windows 10.

Good non-k series processor

12th gen does good in performance and power management. Pulls around 88 watts when running Cinebench R23. Single-threaded performance finally catches up to Zen 3. Box cooler can cool the processor quietly under light load. Under full load it becomes really noise, but it can sustain 4.3Ghz all core. I bought this one b/c this is the highest SKU w/o E-cores, which means no drama in Linux. On board GPU works well, esports titles run well. WOW runs 1080p@60fps with 3 preset.
